Reply #3: Brilliant work, too few will read it and understand the implications [View All]

The parallels between Obama and the present day allegory of Neville Chamberlain in Munich are legitimate and appropriate.

We need less Chamberlain and more Teddy (Roosevelt & Kennedy) and FDR and William Tecumseh Sherman. This is the time for strength and unity and purpose. Obama is perceived to be unfaithful and dismissive of liberals and there is real truth to this. So this weakness is being exploited by corporate men who are both clever and ill-intentioned toward the public at large.

In total honesty - we are in deep, deep trouble. The democratic party is something unrecognizable except for its duplicity. Palin and McCain almost pulled it off. It will happen again. Why? Because democrats are not proving their legitamcy through salesmanship of their values and principals to Americans. We complain about republicans, but every time you turn over a slimy rock, democrats and republicans go scurrying out of the light.

This is a great time for a single man's achievement. This is a god awful era for democrats who are supposed to be the fighting opposition against corporate greed and corruption.

We will carry the burden of our collective cowardice for generations. It has made us just like republicans. I won't vote democratic for the first time in thirty-one years next election. The leadership doesn't deserve a single vote from anyone who considers themselves a liberal (oh, dear I said the 'L' word, thank our leadership for making it equivalent to communist). Republicans can't use the 'N' word so they use the 'L' word.

I used to laugh at the Nader protest vote and 3rd party votes. Now after 30 years, I finally get it.
