An Apology from the DNC to the American People
The Democratic National Committee would like to take this opportunity to sincerely apologize for President Obama’s milquetoast stands on important issues. He takes the party base for granted, and is just as bribable as a Republican on issues that are important to the American people! We are sincerely sorry that we must now watch him walk back in to the 2012 Presidential nomination with so much compromise and betrayal of campaign promises as his record.
It has been a disgusting spectacle to watch over the past few years hasn’t it? A landslide victory was won over the Republicans after 8 years of George W. Bush’s illegitimate rule. Only to see that after inauguration, the foulest parts of our system could easily bribe and control the Democratic leadership as well. Those that did not wish to concede to the minor reforms after Congress justly altered a demonic profiteering Health Care System bought themselves a “grassroots” movement to turn the tide the other way. And this was met with compromise, caving in, and often kowtowing to people who did not and will never vote for Obama.
As we speak, citizens are organizing in the Occupy Wall Street movement. There is justifiable outrage at Goldman Sachs selling and promoting Mortgage backed Securities at one of their investment desks while simultaneously shorting those very Securities at another desk. This led directly to the AIG bailout. They managed to profit heavily off of the economy going under. The Department of Justice has been pitiful in its response. This is the same Justice Department that is cowardly refusing to enforce the law when any Right Wing preacher endorses a candidate from the pulpit-
And when can the Justice Department under Obama be called on to enforce the law? Why when it breaks a 2008 campaign promise of course! The Pharmaceutical industry is currently in Stage 3 trials of Marijuana based drugs like Sativex and that means it can’t have voter approved Medical Marijuana dispensaries selling a plant at a lower price.
Obviously Obama and Holder’s DOJ is a cruel and insipid joke under these circumstances. We could have had a Republican in office and had this kind of big government intrusion over State’s rights for the benefit of a corporate crony happen! We’re sorry. We really are. We are the sorriest excuses for public servants because we promised the opposite and then screwed over our base of supporters!
And it has certainly been sickening to watch hypocrites like Boehner, Cantor, and Ryan cite cutbacks in Federal and State jobs as what is needed to “create jobs”! But we are no better. As this is written, “Free trade” agreements with Colombia, Korea and Panama are being railroaded through Congress. These agreements have a history of sacrificing GDP for gains in speculative markets. At a time of high unemployment we are going to be shipping more jobs overseas for corporate profits. One of the bright spots in the 2008 debate was McCain calling a Columbia “Free Trade” agreement a no-brainer as he asserted that country that taxes its cocaine is helping us try to stop the flow of drugs into our country that's killing young Americans. The 2008 Obama responded “the history in Colombia right now is that labor leaders have been targeted for assassination on a fairly consistent basis and there have not been prosecutions.”
But if a Free Trade Agreement is signed into law, not only can Obama join Boehner and Ryan in the shameful “We-have-to-cost-ourselves-jobs-to-create-jobs” club, but it will be his signature drying on a treaty with a government that targets labor leaders and doesn’t prosecute!
And then there was letting Cap and Trade die and coming out for oil drilling in the Gulf (essentially giving the middle finger to every environmental activist that canvassed for him) right before the largest oil spill ever. It was directly linked to corporate greed and negligence. Granted Obama did get a whole 3 billion dollars set aside from BP to deal with this mess. But to the DNC’s shame, no one was arrested for their negligence!
You have no idea how ashamed we are to have this man walk back into our party’s nomination. Our only hope really is for a national replay of the Nevada Reid vs Angle contest. A dismal sold-out center right Democrat vs a raving lunatic who endorses a theocracy! It’s as though the attitude of Democrats once elected is “Screw you, what are you going to do? Vote Republican?” It’s no wonder that you’ve taken to the streets.
Only know that despite the ads you will see over the coming year, we here at the DNC are so sorry it’s come to this, we really are!
We are honestly so fucking sorry!
