Obama’s New Strategy: Blame the Other Guys

h t t p://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/commentary/la-oe-mcmanus31-2010jan31,0,128927.column

Jan. 27, 2010: Pres. Obama: “What the American people hope – what they deserve – is for all of us, Democrats and Republicans, to work through our differences; to overcome the numbing weight of our politics,”

Jan 31, 2010: Axelrod on Republicans from the article above: “They didn’t pay enough of a price for what was a determined strategy not to work with us,” he said. Now, “they either work with us or they have to pay the price for working against us.”

Interesting way to try to “work through differences” and build more bipartisanship….

To those of us who know and love him dearly, Barack’s little admission to the Republicans that the insurance friendly health care deform bill which he tried to ram thorough was really like what the Republicans would do, and that it contained some very bad things comes as no surprise. We knew he was not a traditional democrat but a Chicago Machine kind of guy always willing to do Rezko deals to get ahead. Also, his willingness to admit as much to the Republicans in an effort to suck up to them after his stinging defeat is Massachusetts is de rigeur for him. Like the Leprachun in Finnean’s Rainbow it is a clear cut case of When I am not near the one I love I love the one I’m near. This cut from the Broadway play rehearsal says it all starting at 1:05: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ul25d4gkDFM

birdgal, I believe that is called “earned income tax credit”. This has been going on for years, it is usually an low wage worker that has a full-time job and has children. I am not sure which administration did this, I think it was Clinton’s.
The idea was too get people to work instead of beign on welfare. It was also great for the economy because most folks bought something every year like a washer/dryer, used car, furniture and such. I don’t mind it because it was designed to give those folk who work a helping hand and not welfare. Its a good program. Usually these folks are minimum wage employees with no hope of ever getting these things.

I agree, but 9,000 dollars? Is the earned income credit higher this year?

One more comment.

I understand the government wants to help out people in need, but i get boiling mad when the government is giving people who work with zero taxes withheld extra money in their refund. People are walking out with 9000.00 refunds and have not paid one penney in withholding taxes. The ones on social security who have paid their dues can’t get a cost of living raise. What is wrong with this picture.

How is this happening? I have to fight for every deduction.

Just met a man and his wife that just moved here from Alaska. He worked in the oil business and worked with Todd Palin. He says he is a hard working honest guy. He said Sarah was the best thing that ever happened to Alaska.
We got to talking about how the bot infiltrated Alaska and destroyed Sarah. He also agreed the republicans were out to destroy her just as much as the Obama campaign.
He says the reason both sides are scared of Sarah is that she cleaned up Alaska of the oil crooks. He said the legislature would convene to get drunk and party and the only thing they ever voted on was giving themselves a raise. Sarah cleaned them out and they also were out to get her. The people in Alaska (avg working folk) love Sarah. All of Alaska gets an oil dividend every year thanks to Sarah.
This guy is a retired marine (vietnam sp.ops)and he absolutely hates Nasty Pelosi because she said the military was getting militant.
