Obama just said the assassination of Osama is “one of the greatest intelligence and military operations in America’s history,” a statement which is patently false and trivializes the horrendous battles US military have been through. For someone who prides himself on being “No Drama” Obama, it appears our president has jumped the shark. [...] Ian Welch details how Obama without fail sides with the rich, making sure they get huge and unjustified bailouts while the rest of us get screwed. He concludes Obama must lose in 2012, whether in the primary or the general election. If President Teabag gets in after 4 years of Obama, the US will be [...] Obama has continually “revised” our reasons for being in Libya. Now it’s about regime change with the predictable result of another endless war with no exit strategy. Too many Democrats who vehemently protested the Iraq War when Bush was president are of course totally ok with what Obama is doing. Their hypocrisy and craven self-interest [...] While the two parties have genuine differences on issues like abortion, the environment, and a safety net, they are in complete agreement about foreign policy (American exceptionalism rules) and corporatism (Hey Wall Street, want more money? can we ignore more laws for you?)

Obama fought ferociously hard to give the big banks whatever they want, whether that be huge bailouts, changing the accounting rules for them and [...] The president with no past: Part II About the first thing Obama did upon becoming president was issue an executive order sealing all his previous records.

The president with no past Obama’s parents, maternal grandparents and stepfather – [...] With liberals currently foaming at the mouth about the Koch brothers, Bought and Paid For; The Unholy Alliance between Obama and Wall Street, by Charles Gasparino becomes even more significant. The book details how Obama was backed by Wall Street very early in the 2008 election and with much more money than they’d ever [...] From Steve Hynd at Newshoggers Crowley had called Mannings detention, naked and in solitary confinement, “ridiculous and counterproductive and stupid”.
