If you don't vote for Obama, we will end up with a republican in office. Yet, IF you vote for Obama

you will still end up with a Republican in office.

So at least you get a choice between a smart Republican
or a dumb Republican. I'll leave you decide which is which.

9. So you don't vote at all?

...because I do not know of one politician who does not lie some of the time. It's what they do.

10. No, you'll end up with a Neo-TheoFascist in office.

With Obama, you'll just have a Republicrat. In other words, a less Jesusy social agenda.

11. Obama needs a primary TO WIN

Then Democrats who want to have the option to vote against him can do that in the primary to get that anger/frustration out. Than can still vote for him in the general.

The primary will also make him focus on his liberal message and he may remember something and turn the message into policy next term.

13. this is a horseshit meme with no basis in reality

Seriously... we had two years of very progressive accomplishments and now 7 months of Clinton-Gingrich style compromises.

That's what happens when you lose congress.

If you think Obama is remotely similar to any of his potential GOP rivals, you need to have your head examined.

Being disappointed in Obama is understandable...false equivalences with the GOP field are just idiotic.

I'm trying to lose some weight, and those are the choices they are serving in the cafeteria,

24. And that is why we have primaries.

Democrats better bring on Plan B, and quickly, because Plan O has failed. Wake the fuck up, Democrats! If the economy is this shitty in 2012, Obama won't get elected even if we all vote for him.

25. I'm hardly Obama's biggest fan, but...

let's be realistic here for a moment. If the choice is between Rick Fucking Perry and Obama ... LMFAO there is no choice at that point. FFS.

26. I'll hold my vote hostage ...

My 'ransom' demand is that Obama starts pushing Democratic party policies.

And we all know that Obama is not really a sell-out, he is just a terribly incompetent negotiator.

Therefor to prove Obama is not a sell-out, I should get 98% of what I want.

Yeah, I see that happening!
