Obama's budget: straight out of Dickens

This is straight out of Dickens. Have the working poor shiver in their beds so the rich can keep cozy while counting all their money?

Yes let’s cheer Obama for being the nice rich man who apologizes for making Tiny Tim shiver but remember Timmy is still in the cold without a blanket.

What a cruel and unjust system of government we have. Obama in 2008 challenged us to not be cynics with the Audacity of Hope message.

Obama asked us to speak up so as to give support to the change we all wanted. Then once elected he brought in all the corrupt players from Bill Clinton’s years and when we voiced our support for a Public Option he told us to be quiet. When we voiced our dismay that so little was done for the poor he told us to be quiet and vote regardless for his party.

When a President and Congress no longer listen to the people and only listens to a tiny elite of rich bankers and Oligarchs, this would normally describe a dictatorship.
