Dear God... Our President needs us Now.

[Number23]

94. You're absolutely right. You are free to trust whoever you like

and do whatever you want. And you are even more correct about the "don't care" bit as I have seen the braying and gnashing from the "left" regarding this president and every other Democratic president. The motives may be good, but the methods stink to high Heaven which is why the "left" has so little clout in this country.

But please realize that in your desperate need to distrust this president and his every action, you are in a tremendous minority. And as the article I pointed to notes repeatedly, this was a lesson that the Republicans were loathe to learn as well -- to their detriment.

And as to the specific points in your post, for every "leftist" I see screaming about the betrayal of health care, I see several hundred Americans (including members of my own family) who are thankful for the changes to healthcare and are hopeful for more. Your comment about SS cuts is mindless speculation that has been bandied about by the "left" for YEARS. Yes, YEARS. As for not prosecuting HSBC, I too would have liked to see them prosecuted, but dismissing a more than $1 billion fine is idiocy. Both would have been great but neither can be dismissed.
