Obama Wins!

Everyone move to Colorado -- ha ha ha! ;)
I'm not pro marijuana. But it's a sensible and judicious approach to drugs.

Colorado marijuana legalization challenges US drug war:

Colorado and Washington became the first U.S. states to legalize the possession and sale of marijuana for recreational use on Tuesday in defiance of federal law, setting the stage for a possible showdown with the Obama administration:

Sequestration is a scary propostition now that the Repubs don't have the accountibility of the electorate to face for 2 years. Without bipartisan support the draconian measures are a near certainty and will undoubtedly be placed at Obama's feet by the right.

Hang on folks, the next 2 months are going to be rocky.

This is eerily reminiscient of Chicago's first black Mayor, Harold Washington who had to fight his city council tooth and nail for the most basic of things. The same miscreants who vilified him while alive now sing his praises as a great mayor in death.

Watch, when Obama's term is over many will claim him as a trailblazer and a great man while demonizing him while in office.

Damn, Ed! Wish I'd known. I would have paid more attention to the shots of the crowd. Saw a lot of the people up front during the television coverage, but didn't see you. Good for you to have been so close. Although I think the Obama family would have been more cautious on stage if they had been aware that a perv like you was so close. :party:

The futility of climatespotting: No matter what he says, Obama can’t make big moves on climate:

The parasites won.

The house of cards that the world and Unites States economy is on is about to crumble (it already is in Europe). Keep printing money baby and move around the debt. What a fuk’in joke. I thought Carter was bad.

Wow....that's SOME prejudice.... Parasites...
You know if people stopped sending jobs overseas less "parasites" would be on assistance....
If people stopped overtaxing middle class and poor people and started making big business accountable for it's share....less "parasites"
I suppose handicapped and disabled people are parasites too?
Yes there are SOME people getting Welfare that make excuses why they're on it....but to call all of them Parasites is ridiculous.

On the flip side of that is, the people who don't drink coffee in the morning because they don't have to get up and they don't make a yearly income.

It's called: Failure by Design:
http://www.epi.org/publication/failure-by-design/

We live in such conjuncture that we can’t expect anyone, not president Obama and not anyone either, to do great. The margin manoeuvre is razor thin. But I’m reassured that it’s Obama up there rather than someone who only has the interests of the wealthiest at heart. We can’t expect miracles, and we won’t get any. The only hope we should entertain right now is to come out of this crisis without loosing the house…:2cent
