The left must unite or we will lose our country!

I keep hearing that Obama must start working for "WE the people" and how he hasn't done all he has promised, believe me, I have been one of those too... until I stopped and analyzed the situation he finds himself in.  First, and this is important, he is the President of the United States of America, he is not the President of the United Democrats of America or the President of the Liberals of America, or whatever party you may choose to insert in substitution for a political ideology.  Yes, it was us who put him there but, he said it clearly during his campaign and we must admit it, we loved it when he said it:  "Now even as e speak, there are those who are preparing to divide us, the spin masters, the negative ad peddlers who embrace the politics of anything goes.  Well I say to them tonight, there is not a liberal America and a conservative America - there is the United States of America.  There is not a Black America and a White America and Latino America and Asian America - there's the United States of America." - I remember wanting to cry when I heard him say this.  Now, 3 years later, we criticize him for listening to all sides.

Then, there has to be a super majority of votes to pass anything through Congress and the Republican's, whose #1 objective, openly admitted, is for Obama to  be a one term president and in order to achieve their goals, they vote NAY on everything that might be beneficial to this country and therefore, for Obama.  And we blame Obama.  We blame Obama because we want him to break the rules to do what we want - and need too, don't get me wrong - but according to the rules of Congress, he can't.

And now, how are we reacting?  By splitting the liberals and democrats, as if we will gain something by it.  If we keep doing this, we will have no one to blame but ourselves when a Newt, Romney, Paul or any other nut in the GOP walks into the Oval office and take charge of this country, taking it back to before the '60s.  I know a lot of you will blame Obama, it is always easier to blame someone else for our own demise.  I hear people saying that they will either not vote or vote for a 'green' candidate or anyone else, even if that candidate has no chance in winning; the results?  We're split, but not the far right.  Way to go!!  We might as well place the White House on a silver platter and hand it to the next son of a bitch from the GOP that will make our lives a living hell.  You think we have it bad now?  Allow this to happen and you will really learn what hell is all about!
