Reply #215: " in favor of spam threads straight off of Rahm's printer"

Are you're referring to articles or pieces that put the President in a positive light?

Well, the phenomenon you're referring to that supposed to be indicative of what's not progressive isn't really indicative of that. It's really about people's expectations and inflexibility. For example, here is a piece by Richard Kirsch who was with Health Care for America Now and just became a senior fellow at the Roosevelt Institute.

The second comment in response:

This article has all the substance of a pep rally. I’m not sure it should have a place on this website.

The fourth:

While progressives have many valid complaints about the Affordable Care Act, I always find it strange that so many are so quick to dismiss a bill that provides upwards of $800 billion in health insurance subsidies, covers over 30 million more people, and represents the greatest progressive redistribution since the 1960s. Accomplishments aren’t meaningless because they’re not everything you had hoped for.

See, this debate isn't unique, but it does show that simply referring positive articles about the President as being "straight off of Rahm's printer" isn't taking what's really going on into account.
