95. So our problem is that Democrats are bashing Democrats
Edited on Wed Nov-10-10 05:24 PM by walldude
for acting like Republicans? And many of these people you are talking about are off their duffs doing something about it. Every day. While you are here bashing them. What they are looking for is a little support.

Once again you miss the point entirely. People are not blaming Obama for what he isn't doing or hasn't had the time to do, they are blaming him for the things he is doing that are counter productive to achieving equal rights.

I'm sorry, when I call out Obama it's not because I am impatient or because I do nothing but sit around all day and bitch. When I call him out it's because increasing troop levels in Afghanistan is stupid. It's because renewing the Patriot act is unconstitutional. It's because challenging the DADT ruling, in spite of the bullshit that was peddled here was nothing something he was bound to do by law. It's because printing 6 billion dollars in new money is not the way to stimulate the economy it's a sure fire fucking way to increase inflation.

You say that all this bitching is getting nothing done. Bullshit. It's appeasing the Democrats and their mistakes that are causing things not to get done. Maybe had all the liberal Democrats stood up for Gay rights, maybe if you and the people like you who come into these threads to defend Obama's stance on gay rights, which amounts to "I love you guys but I can't help you" had stood with the GLBT community instead of ignoring their plight, things might have gotten done.

Tiresome. Well I'm sorry all this whining and complaining about an issue so trivial as basic human rights is tiresome for you. It must be really difficult to have to hit that unrec button. I tell you what, when it's your turn, when it's your rights being violated, see how you feel when I call your complaining tiresome.
