I liked it, considering my downward trend of my liking of Obama. I think he highlighted a main issue that's been talked about many times - working "together", but I loved his focus on innovation. That's the kind of progressive thinking we need.
I think it was last year that Pelosi looked like an insane jack-in-the-box...constantly popping up! I don't see why congress has to make the speech a circle-jerk by applauding every statement the man makes!burnzz wrote:

no, he ain't bitter
Yeah right, love how Obama wants to "work together", now that he lost the House and faces losing his job in 2 years.. Translation, "lets talk before I get kicked the fuck out of office."Poseidon wrote:

He's always tried to stay somewhat centrist.
And the chances of him getting re-elected are pretty fucking high considering the shit candidates the Republicans seem to be offering at this point.

There is literally nothing in that link or in your comment that could dissuade belief that he's tried to remain a centrist. Not to mention the fact that you still insist on calling it "govt health care" when it's been proven time and time again that the health care reform bill is NOT gov't run healthcare. Not that I'd expect you to know the difference.lowing wrote:

But if you are looking for an answer here it is: There has been no greater govt. growth and involvement in personal lives and private enterprise in the history of our nation than now. With govt. stimulus and forced govt health care etc...
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/co … 00153.html so no I do not agree with your assessment that our president is centralist.

What you're failing to understand is that it's a matter of perspective. If you think he's a centrist then you are either further left than he is or you believe he matches your own ideals and that you yourself are in the center. For someone that leans right, he would not appear centrist. Considering you thought Cuomo was a centrist, it's quite apparent that you... well... I'll be nice and say you don't have a lot of experience when it comes to politics or political thought.Poseidon wrote:

Ken was completely spot on in his diagnosis of your arguments. You fail to answer things and you attribute arguments to people and then try to argue them. It's really funny.
Ah yes, here comes JohnG@lt, queen of all things politics. I never said Cuomo was a centrist, and if I did, it was simply that he was more centrist than the other hardcore lefties in NY. My post to lowing was that he was ATTEMPTING to work with the right. And considering the tax cut deal that just went through, I'd say that he does. Lowing and others just want to look for any possible argument to make Obama look bad. If you'll notice I also said "somewhat" centrist. I didn't say he IS a centrist.JohnG@lt wrote:
