2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Hey, We Progressives Won Something. [View all]libdem4life
(13,877 posts)22. I was just watching Rachel...two of the largest critics of PBO...one was the Whirlpool spawn,
and another is the hubby of the Clear Channel heiress. One worth half a billion, the other, close to it. I didn't even make a note of their names, it's so ho hum. Oh, and they are Republicans.
Then checked in here to read posts of supposedly Democrats ... people on this Liberal board who have the cheep-cheep to criticize a member of Congress, doing what he was elected to do. It's not like there are so many rich Progressives out there.
Get over yourselves.

No credit to Obama or Kerry. Okay, cool, it is what it is. We're used to this.

Yes, we won something. I'm glad for that and won't begrudge credit where it's due.

The point is that the job is far from finished and this OP is badly misinformed.

Yes - it's not necessary to actually criticize or insult Obama to drive the BOG mad.
