Open Left

You're right on 1/4 (4.00 / 1)

1) EFCA hasn't come up yet.
2) Cramdown, yes, you're right. But I don't find it as big an issue.
3) Defeated is the wrong word.  Most of what he wanted is there.  Why doesn't anyone else fight for it?  Plus nothing's definite yet.
4) Yeah it's in limbo.  Doesn't mean it won't happen.

My point is that they're tapping themselves on the back because the White House informed them of the position they've held since day one because they had to clear up an issue that had to do with the WSJ twisting the facts. <--rambling intended.

Nothing changed.

I see (4.00 / 4)

Carmdown, which would have allowed hundreds of thousands of people to say in their homes, isn't inportant.

And yes, card check is dead.

Your basic point, as far as I gather, is that if Obama supports something, then it will become law and we can all relax and smile as we watch it magically happen.

That is a position that even President Obama wouldn't agree with.

Well, yeah, if it makes you feel better you can lie (4.00 / 1)

1) "I don't find it as big an issue" does not equal "isn't important"

2) Card check isn't dead.

3) Didn't say that.

4) I would agree, which is why I didn't make that point.

What I am saying is that just because you think bitching, moaning and distorting the truth of President Obama's position will help your cause, doesn't make it so.
