I do see where you are coming from, whatukno, but I disagree to some extent.
If what you are speaking about is happening the way you say it is, then I invite you to speculate, postulate, and ruminate upon the exact opposite of
that, where individuals might have people "push" them into certain alternative and illegal actions on the thread below.
Are You "Right-Wing Fringe", or "Left-Wing Fringe" and How Will They Push You
If what you are implying is correct, then the picture may in fact be far bigger than you are speaking about, and with you predilection towards
politics, you need to know a whole lot more before you get to Washington D.C.

I agree with Bill and whatukno completely.
It's very clear to me. The right wing conspiracy's strategy is Complete Obama Failure. They want everything he attempts to fail. That's how they
will "gain control" of Washington again, which is the goal.
The same goes to you, BH, as I said to whatukno, if you agree with his stance, you may in fact want to peruse over my thread a bit, and see what types
of things are "pushed" onto society one person at a time, which may in fact assist you in better explaining your point on a larger scale.
Are You "Right-Wing Fringe", or "Left-Wing Fringe" and How Will They Push You
While I can agree to some extent, that both people have a valid point, I do as well se this as
"politics as usual" because in the insanity
that is Washington D.C. it is a part of the very fabric that is politics to push, pull, and drag your counterpart off of their targets, because,
people being people, are small-minded, petty, and acrimonious when it comes to competiton, influence, and power.
Politics is a field of lying straight to the constituents faces about the politicians intentions, to get something they want, more power, clout, and
ultimately, money.
I am no fan of Obama, but neither was I a fan of Bush before him, not because I am of either party, I am a registered Independent, but because I see
so easily through the lies, half-truths, and politcal speeches where little to nothing is said at all in the hopes that the polticians can keep the
people complacent and happy, if but for a little while longer and for a few dollars more.
I have discussed Obama with a friend of mine, someone almost twice my age, and when dicsussing the man, I always fall back to a statement I have come
to know as true, whether anyone here agrees with it or not is irrelevant.
Original External Quote by SKL :
When Presidents, Kings and Queens, and Dictators begin speaking in generalized terms, using more euphamisms than facts, and as well catch-phrases
intead of reality, we as a society must watch out because it is tantamount to being told absolutely nothing, and when politicians tell us nothing
there is a whole lot of something going on behind the scenes that we will assuredly not be happy for nor wanting, desiring, or asking for and that
same man or woman is trying to fend off telling us this reality by obfuscation, non-commital, and outright diversionary tactics, which leads one to
believe they have a deeper and darker agenda than anyone will know,...until it is far too late.
