Well I hope we will see some

Well I hope we will see some progress, I just hope its the right kind. I don't want the lives of so many ruined by the welfare state. And I'm sick to death of all these undeclared wars!! Stop the madness!!

I didn't like having to vote

I didn't like having to vote no, but as long as the tea party radicals retain control of the House it will never pass.  I am going to go out on a limb here and decalr that in November not only will Obama be re-elected, but the Democrats will retake control of the House and retain control of the senate.  Only then will we see some progress.

President Obama isn't feeling

President Obama isn't feeling enough heat from his base, and his naturally concilatory nature isn't conducive to fighting for what is right for this country.  Which is: making the rich pay their fair share, and investing in infrastructure (that includes converting the U.S. to a clean energy economy as Germany is doing), shoring up Medicare and Medicaid, and making the social safety net as strong as it is in northern Europe and Iceland.  Eliminating homelessness.   A debt jublilee for students and underwater mortgages.  And forgetting about the deficit--it's a fake issue.  (On FSTV, there was a program on this past Saturday, Pirate Radio, where Ellen Brown, in simple language, demystifies the deficit and the Federal Reserve System.) I can dream, can't I?
