Just call me a whiner.

September 29, 2010

Joe Biden said I was a whiner.

Joe Biden ain’t seen nothing yet.

I’m going to keep whining about your wars.

I’m going to keep whining about your Race to the Top and your call to fire more teachers.

I’m going to keep whining about your bailouts for your Wall Street pals that comprise your economic advisers.

Oh, there’s lots of whining in me yet.

When you were running and nobody thought you had a chance, this whiner was getting you votes.

Me and the rest of the professional whiners you dismiss now.

Oh wait. Here’s a picture of Mr. and Mrs. Whiner. That first summer of your administration we drove to Wakarusa, Indiana. It’s a three-hour drive east of Chicago. The Tea Party loonies were protesting the health care bill and we decided to go face them down.

Us, and a couple hundred other whiners.

Back then and during the campaign the slogan was.”Change We Can Believe In.”

Now the slogan appears to be, “Stop whining.”

Hmmm. Not really working for me.

    They shouldn’t have said whiners. What they could have said and did later on, was that we tried but couldn’t get everything we wanted. Jim Clyburn said it about the Civil Right’s Act. It’s not always perfect the first time around, but we added onto it in later years. This is what Tom Harkin tried to say abut the Health Care bill. You cannot hold it hostage because it doesn’t have everything you want, and I agreed with that. Obama simply could have said- we could have gone farther if not for obstruction every step of the way ,but we’ll get it done!

    I don’t like Robert Gibbs, and I never did. I don’t think he conveys ideas very effectively.
