After all the emails, phone calls, signing of petition after petition, and hours spent watching CSPAN these last 3 years...hoping and praying for legislation to pass - some word of acknowledgement from Obama or Biden on the reality of economic suffering we've all been through - NOW we get "empathy". Not one of us is going to pay rent, or put food on the table, or pay a doctor 's bill with it - but hey...Joe Biden claims to "feel" our pain.
The timing of this declaration (Biden's new mission to spread the news of his "empathy" around the country) is so painfully obvious. It just makes me mad and sad in equal measure.
I am loathe to admit re-electing the Obama administration is the only sane, if imperfect, choice (so disappointed am I)...but convinced with all certainty of the blatant idiocy and heartlessness of Obama's political opposition (all variations of them).
Democrats may be pitiful in their leadership...but the other side is pity-less
(I borrowed that from somewhere - but it struck me as so terribly true).

I hate all the phonyness and kissing babies stuff that come with every election. I want politicians to quit all that and just be real and candid about everything.

Government is so out of control in Washington ! As stated, one side is pitiful, and the other side is pitiless ! Maybe it is time to get a third choice, or Political Party to rise to the occasion. This Voting for the " the lessor of two evils " stinks !!!!

We absolutely need more choices, this independent party has turned into just like the other two, they turn to them when they think they may lose their seat, then run as an Ind to hold onto the seat, and then continue to move towards their agenda anyway. We need some new blood, like FDR told the rich, wake up folks, we have the socialist, the communist, who do you want the voters to vote for, play ball with me, pay more in taxes, create jobs in our companies, move forward for the good of the middle class, and then they in turn will help the poor as they begin to prosper. Now, no one asks anything of the rich and the corporations from our Gov't, we need a new strong party to stand up and be a force to deal with. Raw, Raw,!
