Reply #32: How many times must we ask

[Jakes Progress]

how could Democrats support this neocon freak? It is just heartbreaking that the president I voted for has either fallen for this crap or, worse, supports it. But the silence about or even support for the corporatization of our schools by some rank and file Democrats is sickening.

It is gratifying that your posts are drawing more support. We just notice the the usual crowd simply avoids them. They cannot defend screwing children and bashing unions so they just cover their eyes and look elsewhere.

Obama could have been the president that ended the illegal wars. He could have been the president that brought the bush war criminals to trial. he could have been the president that stopped the income inequality race. He could have been the president who brought about universal health care. He didn't do any of those.

Instead he will have two things he is remembered for. He was the first black president. He ended American public education.

Some legacy.
