Liberals threaten not to vote in November over disappointment with Obama

Liberals threaten not to vote in November over disappointment with Obama. The country is awash in unprecedented debt thanks to his spending and they’re “frustrated” because, for one thing, “the president yielded to Republican pressure by devoting a significant portion of the 2009 stimulus package to tax cuts.” It’s not a question of one side seeing a glass half empty and the other, half full. These people don’t see a glass because the rich guy stole it.

  • I hope they do just that. Stay at home and let those who are informed about the issues vote. It's still my position, if you can not pass a basic civics and government test as well as know who is running for office, you should not be allowed to vote. By doing this, at least people will take the time to be informed and understand the issues and positions of those seeking elected office.

  • Liberals not going to vote because they didn't get their freebie? Go ahead punks, make my day!!!!

  • I'm still supporting Ron Paul, but if he is out of the running, anyone is better then that corporate sell out Romney.

  • Wonder if the real democrats will ever have the stones to take their party back from the liberal hijackers.

  • It would be wonderful for the future of this nation if liberals sat out the Presidential election. But they'll hitch up their pants and vote for Obama, does anyone think for a moment that liberals won't vote or, Gaia forbid, vote for Romney?

    Liberals are the ultimate political animals, they couldn't sit out an election, even if they wanted to.

  • Apparently the Left was so taken by his cleanliness and articulation that they failed to notice that BO came from that bastion of Progressive idealism...Chicago? It couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of well meaning idiots.

  • Oh please oh please oh please oh please oh please oh please oh please oh please oh please oh please oh please oh please oh please oh please oh please oh please oh please oh please oh please oh please oh please

    • Wouldn't it be nice? Not just helping to un-elect Obama, but all the other liberal hacks in Congress and other offices, as well.

      I fear the zombies may riot on November 7 though, if Obama loses.
