This is what is wrong with American politics in microcasim.
I made it plain that I view both sides as foolish, yet this poster is back handedly accusing me of being a hypocrite, with zero proof, just his unfailing rose colored barryglasses that its true.
Sorry to disapoint you chauncey, but this shit has to stop.
If you stood up and condemned this stupid shit it would stop, instead of doing what so many in barryland love to do, looking for the moral equivenlcy that gives Barry a magic bullet to get a pass.
YOU should be offended your gov does these things, that should be your first and only reaction.
So let me again make it clear for you, and so many others that still don't get it, i loathe the Gop as much as I loathe the democrats, both are equaly worthless, and pointing out the stupidity done does not make someone a supporter of the other side.
That should be clear enough.
See this is the REAL problem with politics.
Back when democrats were treated this way, at least on the msnbc board, righties were cheering and laughing about it and I saw very very very few make a comment against it.
However, now that a democrat is in charge righties as a whole try to take the high road and claim that this bad behavior should stop when the majority of them said little or nothing against it in the past when it worked in their favor.
It's all about political expediency and what they think they can spin. This game has been played before and will be played again.
A perfect example is transparency, under clinton righties argued that they had the right to know everything, then came bush and they defended him and argued for national security reasons he needs to keep secrets based on executive privilege and NOW in comes obama and the righties are back to demanding the right to know everything.
It's a game pure and simple.
So it is OK to play this game.
2 wars, recession, 10% unemployemnt, credit crisis, foreclosuures everywhere....but the repubnlicans did it so it is ok to do it now.
I see.
LOL wow you really don't get it do you?? The point is that republicans as a whole weren't bothered or upset about denying someone input (which is NOT the case here) UNTIL it became politically expedient for them to be so. The righties play this game all of the time, will continue to do so and it's hilarious to see righties talking about how if we don't stand up and say something it will never change as they continue to play the game.
Well, now here is your chance to stand up and stop playing politics.
STOP PLAYING THE GAME.
Can you do it??
