re: #429 Fozzie Bear

I still think it took him WAY too long to make the points he made in the speech today. I still think it means precisely nothing if he doesn’t also apply pressure to get it done. As in: make sure everyone knows he will veto any bill which doesn’t address the revenue problem. Today was a good step, but it wasn’t action. Now its time to act,

My point is, the people Obama needs to lean on are the democrats. He needs to ride them like a stolen mule, and not let up until they do what has to be done. That’s how he can win back his base, and that’s how he can get shit done.
