How progressive!!!!!

how the left is slowly waking up to reality

Actually I think they’ve lost touch with political reality (thank God), short and long term, with their unwillingness to accept the “compromise” plan, with co-ops in lieu of the public option, By insisting on all or nothing, they’re likely to get nothing.

If the hard core Democrats were willing to support the co-op route, it would likely get enough Blue Dog and GOP squish votes to pass, eventually it would lead to a public option, which in turn eventually leads to single-payer. With sufficiently heavy handed regulation (I know Obama can pull that off), a bunch of co-ops would eventually go bust, with the government taking them over – thus mutating into the de facto public option.

Fortunately, it looks like there enough leftist true believers that won’t settle for the creeping socialism, they want it now and undiluted.

NICE

His Obamaness is well schooled in the Zig Zag and there are plenty of thing that far left sill wants, so don’t count pandering to some other issue to bring the hard left back to the fold.

The first indication of a zig is the recent Obama DOJ submission on DOMA. I can see Obama loosing on the public option and then turning hard left to appease his loony left base.

Back to this thread’s point, you’ll hear about that turn to the far left first on the Loony Left media outlets, so try to listen occasionally, well as much as you can stand.

P.S. I like the screen name too,

Listening to the hard core Loony Left media outlets will be very interesting to say the least when their hero disappoints.

Sorry, Mr. President. Chicago street thug politics just don’t quite translate to a smooth ride on the national stage.

The only question I have in this regard is whether or not he has finally awakened to that reality, or if he is still deluded enough to believe he actually is a god-like being standing astride the world.

Having Air America throw rocks through the White House windows must, surely, be a wake-up call to some degree.

Once he’s had his nose bloodied a couple of times, he won’t seem so invincible.

And the man’s name is pronounced TOE-zann.
