No, Shiva, that’s just when somebody got out the can opener and let him escape.

Really? And to think the republicans had more than a year to read and understand Obamacare.

Obama has reached across party lines, its the Boehner that says he will not use the word compromise.

ALL presidents have meetings with their own party. did you just come to America yesterday?

What I like here is people are actually complaining that Romney will do what the Republicans tell him to do and only that. Hmmm,well it seems to only be completely opposite of what your president is doing and that is, everything Democratically possible. He promised to reach across party lines and meet Republicans in the middle and help blah, blah, blah. He’s signed laws into policy behind closed doors, he’s done backdoor everything through his Obamacare policy and he’s actually had meetings with all other Democrats but closed door to Republicans. He’s lied about everything he said he’d do while campaigning except he would do more for the Homosexual party which he has done and enforced to the max. Only Democrats are allowed to lie, cheat, and spend more money than feasibly possible!

This is a pretty bare-naked description of what Bob Altemyer calls the Double- High personality: the type who is simultaneously high in authoritarianism (you must obey the rules and punish those who don’t) and social-dominance-orientation (some people are inherently better than others and are therefore entitled to use every means possible to maintain and achieve dominance; the inferior others are not entitled to resist by even the most lawful and peaceful means). The Double High loves rigid rules…for others; they are very useful to his own designs to control them. He is, at the same time, an utter lickspittle and yes man to anyone who genuinely seems to be his superior (in position and ruthlessness) until he sees some flaw that entitles him to either openly supplant him or use him as a tool (the latter as Dick Cheney did with George W. Bush). The viciousness of these people is partly narcissistic rage and partly calculated terrorism. And in this case, the “inferior” groups are indeed already being legislatively punished for putting an “inferior” black man in the White House, but that is nothing compared to the punitive rage we can expect if they sweep.

In Chile, prior to the Pinochet coup, Naomi Klein reports that the ominous grafitti, “Jakarta is Coming”, appeared on the walls of the capital. Let us hope we are not seeing, “Santiago is coming”.
