Reply #69: Bull. He gave up the public option before the reform bill ever reached Congress.

[No Elephants]

He gave up while he was negotiating with health insurers in the WH and trying to hide the white house visitors' log from the ACLU.

He never fought Congress for the public option, not even a little. To the contrary, he fought the House, refused to meet with the Caucus until after the Senate abomination passed.

Far from even trying to use his bully pulpit to have us raining calls on Congress, he chided us, telling us it was only a sliver, not important in the big picture.

That was not the fault of left wing radio, or of Congress.

Radio doesn't make him use extraordinary rendition, either. Neither does Congress.

And he announced there would be no prosecution of bushco before right wing radio even had a chance to be all over him about that.

P.S. If you were right, and I don't think that for a second, how lame a President would he be, to let right wing radio run the country and his own actions?

These excuses make him seem lamer than any criticism ever could.
