Haven't We Seen This Before?

C'mon Barack Obama, get with it already and stop caving in to the Republicans.
What is it with this guy anyway?
We have seen this scenario play out before over the last two and a half years since Obama became President of the United States.
He caved on the public option for health care reform... he caved on letting the Bush 43 tax cuts sunset and instead extended them another two years in exchange for an extra year of unemployment benefits extensions.
Sucker!
Now it appears Obama is also caving in and putting Social Security, along with Medicare and Medicaid "on the table" for cuts in order to raise the debt ceiling.
Funny, I do not ever remember the Republicans challenging George W. Bush about the deficit or raising the debt ceiling during his eight years in the White House.
Republican Senate MINORITY LEADER Mitch McConnell (Kentucky) said it oh so well long ago... "We (Republican party) want to make (President Obama) a ONE-TERM President."
So what's up?
More political posturing by both the Democratic and Republican parties it appears as the American public seems doomed to carry the burden once again while the scumbags on Wall Street and the corporate world skate free.
Will it ever end?
Doubtful.
