re: #219 RogueOne

Here is the problem the president is going to have in moving to the middle, especially in regards to the debt problem…

Typical response from the left:

The Hijacked Commission

While that is slightly better than the histrionics that were tossed around a couple days ago it’s not a good sign that the left is going to let the dems move to the middle without pitching a fit.

The dem base is highly pissed that Obama made concessions and played ball with the GOP for months on health care for absolutely fucking nothing in return. Even after GOP demands where put into the bill, there was not a single GOP vote. There is no willingness on the left to compromise at this point, much of which feels they could have had a single payer option still on the table for all the good it did them to negoiate with Republicans who actually said at a meeting that they could not vote for any health care under any circumstances no matter how GOP friendly it was. They feel they got burned on health care and they are not going to try playing nice again.
