I want to congratulate the Obama Administration

39. Your entire post sends the message the reform is not viable.

Reform is only possible if we vote in progressive congresspeople to actually pass legislation that we care about. The democrats, before they lost the House, voted down AUMF. The Senate, typically, shot it down.

I'd be happy to have a critical discussion with you, but you come to the table with your conclusion, you don't really appear to want to have a discussion like that. Otherwise, why waste my time? I mean, we go look at the "Third Way" post (which I'm no longer responding to) which links a Huffington Post article and quotes a title that the Huffington Post actually removed because the fucking trade agreement doesn't give corporations more power. The narrative isn't being run by liberals, and we bite when the conservatives (ie, Scott Walker funded Huffington Post) try to manage the narrative. I had no desire there to correct the nonsense (if you notice I was arguing about other even more trivial things) because people come to these discussions with their minds made up. Why try? It's more entertaining to go in other directions. And yes, politics is entertaining, if it wasn't I wouldn't bother.
