Yeah, the last time Republicans got nearly as much power as the Democrats had, it ended in a shellacking too. But, at least the Republicans were able to hold on for 6 years. The very first damn election after Democrats established their dominance, they were smacked.
So Obama gets up there and says it's not a statement on his agenda. Come on shit-head. You've done two important bills in the last two years. Both were terribly unpopular.
Even Liberals think Obamacare is terribly flawed, only they excuse Congressional Democrats' incompetence by saying historically it was necessary. Like you couldn't have taken the necessary step in an intelligent way rather than use every bit of political capital you could muster to fight for the public option, which failed.
And, the stimulus bills. You spent almost another trillion dollars on a credit card, a lot of it cherry-picking specific individuals who you were going to hand free money too. The reports come back and they're loaded with complete bullshit. All these purchasing a lawn mower for $40K in Ohio was supposed to have saved five jobs. Polls show that the vast majority of Americans don't think that extravagant stimulus bill created any jobs at all.
Then you also did financial reform. Reading in investment communities, it seems like a lot of the more popular money managers think it did some good. Didn't go nearly as far as it should have because Washington is a bunch of pussies these days just trying to figure out how to fund their next campaign. But what it did do is supposedly supposed to help. Thing is, the American people don't understand that shit anyway. We've got no idea what happened in that debate.
So, it has absolutely nothing to with your agenda. Fucking idiot. You did two landmark things, and they were both hated. But, it has nothing to do with your agenda...
My political opinions are pretty moderate. Those political quizzes you can take on the internet, I end up as center-right. More towards the center towards than the right. According to the quizzes a lot of people who end up there actually consider themselves Democrats.
But, there's no way in hell I'm considering myself a Democrat. If you look at the political parties not based on the ideologies they evolved out of, but as simply institutions that have their own processes and results, the Democratic party's got its head up its ass. Things like electing a man leader of the free world whose only federal government experience was 2 years as the junior Senator from Illinois. And, his only executive experience was an assignment doling out money to radical educational groups under the auspices of a man who had formerly bombed the US Capitol Building. Come on.
You Democrats are a bunch of fucking idiots.
