Move over, Britain: Obama alienates another ally

Bestbuy discount bin?

I know it’s fun to rag on the President. I know he deserves much scorn. But lying about the authenticity of a gift produced by and for the White House in an effort to embarrass Obama is unbecoming.

As are similar claims the dvd’s weren’t encoded for the uk region format.

With Obama’s approval sky high we need to pick and choose what and when we criticize lest we get tuned out by the very people we need to convince because they tire of hearing constant bitching about – at best – exaggerated nonsense.

In 2004 Bush/Cheney screwed us. They threw our party ‘under the bus’ and spent the next four years running us over to make sure we were dead.

Where was their party building? Where was the heir apperant?

In 2004 Karl Rove wrote a book full of checks he knew were going to bounce and knew he had no intention of ever honoring. All the while doing it knowing he would skip town and leave the mess for the suckers remaining to clean up.

I’m now a member of a party/rudderless ship 50+ days removed from the most powerful office in the world and looks and sounds like a bunch of pant wetting malcontents. A party deserted by the big wigs after the carcass has been picked of the choice meat and when only scraps remain.

We are expected to praise the party’s ruination and those that have lead us here.

John McCain didn’t lose the 08 election. Barack Obama didn’t lie cheat or steal it(any more than other Democrats we’ve whooped in thew past).

Bush Cheney and Rove lost us the election in 2004 when they unleashed the social conservatives instead of replacing Cheney on the ticket with their heir apparent and spending the next four years grooming him to take over.

We were left with a bitter primary, an unpopular administration that any nominee would have had to run from, and Democratic momentum that would have elected a ham sandwich. Or a Barack Obama.
