The flimsy excuses used by liberals and progressives to support Obama, including the argument that we can’t let Romney appoint the next Supreme Court justices, ignore the imperative of building a movement as fast and as radical as possible as a counterweight to corporate power. The Supreme Court, no matter what its composition, will not save us from financial implosion and climate collapse.
Progressives’ call to vote for independents in “safe” states where it is certain the Democrats will win will do nothing to mitigate fossil fuel’s ravaging of the ecosystem, regulate and prosecute Wall Street or return to us our civil liberties.
“There is no state out there where either Obama or Romney offers a way out of here alive,” Stein said. “It’s up to us to create truly safe states, a safe nation, and a safe planet. Neither Obama nor Romney has a single exit strategy from the deadly crises we face.”
By the way I find the fact that the very people involved in a lawsuit against Obama and who know EXACTLY, intimately, and personally what is going on with Obama and the NDAA (Chomsky and Ellsberg), that they still turn around and support Obama, I find it surreal, hard to even contemplate that mindset. At least most obamabots are at many levels of remove from this stuff, not so personally aware of what they are doing.
