Poll for lefties
by judy1

How many of you are really bothered by Obama's "moves" to the center?

On a scale of 1 to 5 with 5 being the most liberal, and 1 being just left of center, rate yourself.

I will start.

No, I am not bothered by Obama moving towards the center

I consider myself a 3

2.5 for me, I would rather him tell BushCo to fuck off and

...let them know he's going throw their sorry azzes in jail but..that's me.

On the real, it'd take a 7 for me to think about not voting for him.

I'm not a left or a right but I think Barack Obama is doing what it takes to win and only following a sound political strategy to make it happen. He is a politician just doing what politicians do and calling it "new and change".

His base isn't going to be disturbed by this because they know he is kidding. One thing you can count on as sure as the sun will rise tomorrow is that Democrats will say anything to get elected.

I don't get it. On a scale of 1 to 5 where 1 is least bothered and 5 being most bothered, I'm a #2.
Get a clue, skippy

President dumb-fuck ran as a "compassionate conservative," said he was in favor of a carbon tax, said he thought America should follow a "humble" foreign policy and not engage in "nation building," and said he was a "uniter."

Wanna try guessing again which party will say anything?

So you are saying that it you would limit your view of him in terms of what's new and changed, based solely on the fact that he is doing what he must do to win? Wow. that's a pretty shallow way of thinking.

Until Obama

slaps on a swastika arm band, he is to the left of McSame, I will happily vote for him.
at least you admit he is moving
by jazzguitarman

I see progress here since you admit that Obama is moving to the center. For him to MOVE, he had to CHANGE his positions, right?

On your scale I'm a 2 and other than the faith based crap I'm not bothered at all. But backing a faith based program that is similar to GWB's was just sick Christian crap.

I am probably about a 2.0 or 1.5 on that scale. I realized Obama wasn't out on the extremes quite a while ago. It wasn't a surprise. He didn't change, people just figured out that the whole Republican clamor about his being way out on the extreme left was a bunch of bull. Geez, all you have to do to understand that he isn't on the extremes is listen to the guy and see what he has done legislatively and read what he has written.

No, I am not bothered by it.

Rate myself as a liberal? I say I'm a 3.

As the greatest Liberal here (I rate myself at least a 5), I have to say that I really appreciate the autocratic Osmabama Socialist moving to the center. This will disenfranchise his base. So, it will be interesting which treasonous pinko commie fuck Quisling, The Manchurian Candidate or the Marxist Jihadder Mohammedist Sleeper will be presdient after alienating his base.
