You only have to look at who Obama stocked in his pond and how that decision making process came about to see Obama for what he really was.

Then their was the actions taken by Treasury.

Millions of people underwater

Banks recapitalized

Walked away from his mandate and campaign promises.

He projected cool so he had that going for him, I guess.

Meh,

He has served as a cautionary reminder of how easy it is to get caught up in empty rhetoric and how sustainable it is to maintain a fiction.

At least many are coming around to this realization. Fool me once, shame on me kinda thing.

The Obama's...You gotta love 'em. These are truly decent people.

People who all decent people can look up to and admire!

Decency drips from their swarthy skin.

They practically glow with goodness, and light up every room they walk into.

But nobody ever called him a fighter.

Welp, Joe isn't promising the moon, just to bring decency and normalcy back into our government by putting people who really know their areas of expertise well back into those respective areas of government.

I want a whole lot more than that and so do a lot of folks who fancy themselves revolutionaries.
But revolutions require multitudes and...to quote Pogo - - "Thunk they wuz a multitude a-comin ta see me..dog-bone, that ain't much of a multitude!"

[Linked Image from blastoffcomics.com]

Yeah, damn shame...and I mean that, it sucks.
But absent that multitude, my instincts tell me to go to the nearest thing, not attack everyone who won't go down Revolutionary Road with me.
If the road is a dead end, it's a dead end.

It's like saying, "I got a cold, think I'll take a shot of malaria."
("Talkin' John Birch Society Blues" - Bob Dylan)

To Chunkstyle: If you're that dissatisfied that you'd rather see four more years of Trump, that's on you, bud.
But if you think you can muster the numbers to start that revolution, then get busy...otherwise all of this is just talk and talk is cheap.

Trump is not cheap. Trump is proving to be very expensive.
And he's a luxury most people cannot afford.

Joe isn't promising much of anything. Not liable to deliver much either.

And the nearest thing to a Republican is Joe Biden.

Disagreeing with you and not going down your team blue road is not an attack.
Vote for Biden. Who’s stopping you? No ones asked you to vote for Sanders.
Likewise I’m also free to point out what a craptacular candidate Biden is and his horrible career in government. That should be reasonable, shouldn’t it?

No ones saying you should not vote for a serial liar, corporate servant, authoritarian accused rapist with a blue logo vs. a serial liar, corporate servant, authoritarian accused rapist with a red logo. That’s your decision as it is mine to not.

That’s not an attack. Just an ironic observation.

People in Hell want iced-water too. coffee They're not going to get it. smile

As I wrote to Greger recently, your fellow Dems have decided who the Dem nominee is going to be. And, as I also stated, there were 17 Dems wanting to be POTUS, Dems of all shapes and sizes, Dems with all unique perspectives, Dems of different genders, and different ethnicities. smile

Your fellow Dems picked Joe Biden. Hmm

Vote blue, no matter who. Please and thank you. smile
