Wanda Sykes gives her view on the expectations vs. reality view on change that Obama was going to bring to the country... in a way only Wanda Sykes can do.

Had to post this after I heard that Obama made no mention of the public option in his Sunday address to the Senate.

1. Lieberman was all aglow about the lack of public option rhetoric

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/12/06/obama-silent-on-public-op_n_381847.html

excerpted:

Lieberman was beaming as he left the room and happy to re-point it out when HuffPost asked him what Obama had said about the public health insurance option, perhaps the most contentious issue still facing Democrats as they negotiate their way toward a final health care reform bill.

"Well, it was interesting to me -- of course everybody hears with their own ears -- that he didn't say anything about the public option," said Lieberman. "In other words, when he outlined how far we've come on the bill, he talked about the cost-containment provisions; he talked about the insurance market reforms; and he talked about enabling 30 million more people to get insurance. He said these are historic accomplishments, the most significant social legislation, or whatever you call it, in decades, so don't lose it."

Reid told reporters that Lieberman had approached him after the meeting to note the absence of the public option...

words matter - now where did I hear that?

8. "Cost-containment provisions."
The public option is the only cost-containment provision in the bill. Don't tell Joe.

6. Lieberman is the worst kind of a politican, serving the zionist king-pins
Insurance Giants & not honest Jewish folks or American citizens.

10. If Lieberman wins, expect unrest.
When the 10% unemployed are unable to pay their cobra payments,
we will have unrest in this country.

It's what it will take to break the stranglehold that the corporatacracy has on this country.

I'm counting down the days.

7. a lot of people get their news from comedians that they relate to - this definitely makes
people from all walks start to think that Obama isn't getting much done...

well, unless you are happy with plenty of centrist & centrist right policies.
