Cenk & Sirota: Obama Should Push Left-Wing Agenda 'Almost Regardless' Of Consequences
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

So what if the markets tank? Pushing the "proressive" agenda is the paramount goal. That's the advice Cenk Uygur and his left-wing guest David Sirota have for President Obama. On a day when awful job growth numbers stirred fears of a double-dip recession, Uygur and Sirota still scolded Obama for suggesting that he had to be cautious in his public statements because of the possible impact on markets and the world at large.

Egged on by Uygur, Sirota said Obama should push his agenda "almost regardless" of the consequences.

The consequences will eventually be the loss of liberty for people like these two, and they will have earned this fate. The left is hateful. It’s their oxygen.

It pains me to type this but as long as the fearless reader is President... there really isn’t much we can do to stop it.

Since there’s little hope he will do otherwise or that our Republican ‘leadership’ will muss their hair in an effort to stop him, (too busy playing golf with hin I guess) I agree.

Damn the torpedoes and let him/them destroy it all ASAP. That means that our chance to rebuild America into something that works just comes sooner.

From their lips, to his ears. He doesn’t have the gonads to do this. He’ll have to borrow Hilliary’s.

They don’t need to be in the najority, just in power.

I had read somewhere that it took just 17 people, or so, to overthrow Russia and create the Soviet Union.

We could stop it, but we won’t. Obama is as corrupt as any President has ever been. Watergate was childsplay, but Nixon was driven out of office.

Everyone knows Obama is corrupt, yet they look the other way. People on our side don’t have the guts to stand up to him. Just talk and griping does nothing. It is ignored.

People have to be determined enough to hold the feet to the fire. Republicans think they can fix it with an election.

It pains me to say it, but that ain’t going to happen.

True. Until people stand up for themselves we’re screwed. If every person did 1 thing to ‘fight back against this crap, we’d be well on our way to a solution in 2 days. If every person did 1 thing to fight back every day, the problem would be over (in the sense of being solidly on the right path) in a month.

In my life, I have never watched anything as disheartening and depressing as the last 3 years. I just wish it wouldn’t have happened in our lifetime.

I’m glad it’s happening now, then have it happen later.

Later would allow it to be more entrenched,and harder to remove.

To have it happen now, gives us the better chance to fight it.

Go for it, dudes. Let’s watch Obama go full-bore commie. It will only confirm what most already suspect.

The tea party is just getting started. It’s only been around for a couple of years and it has shaken the establishment enough to cause the Republican party to kow-tow to it, at times.

Just keep pushing, like your survival is always at stake and you will win.

Yeah, but I want to see some fight. People sitting back watching this commie ruin our lives is horrible.

No, but unfortunately, they've got a lock power right now.

The consequences are quite predictable because socialism (i.e. the left wing agenda) has FAILED MISERABLY every time it has been tried.

I agree. Obama should steer hard left with every ounce of his being, as hard as he can go.

That will ensure that nobody votes Dem again for at least three cycles.
