Robert Creamer: One Year After Obama's Victory: We Are in the Opening Months of a New Progressive …

As I watched Barack Obama's victory speech, I thought that America was on the brink of a new progressive era. I believe that just as strongly one year later.

I know there are many Progressives who are disappointed at the pace of change, or who believe that there are many instances when the Obama administration should take bolder action. Sometimes I am among them. But there is no question… » Full Story on Huffington Post

Is it really? I never heard of that! Are you looking for wealthy men? I know a hot and interesting place named Billionairepal.com where I have met my boyfriend. You may take a look.

All he had going for him was a black celebrity. And now one year later that is all he has going for him. He has no leadership experience and never had a job. Now America suffers for the ignorance of so many.

The second coming of Jimmy Carter. As if the first one wasn't bad enough. Some people never learn... (And it's obvious who they are.)

Still don't care what race he is, he has way left agendas that are not what the majority of americans favor. He is on a job killing spree with Pelosi, Reid, and the commie czars.

Something's happening out there.

Financial markets have recovered.

President Obama's approval numbers are rising.

Healthcare Reform with a public option in gaining support, and now looks likely.

FOX News has been exposed and is on the defensive.

Rush Limbaugh and his supporters were humiliated when his application for ownership of the Rams was rejected for his racist statements.

Only 20% of Americans identify as Republicans, the lowest since 1983.

One year later. Things may not be completely fixed, but we're clearly heading in a better direction than we were with Bush. You have to open the parachute and slow the descent before you can start gaining altitude again. Thank God the Republican fear mongers are out of office. Once some of the elderly voters begin to die off, than we can really get things back on track. Old people are the only thing holding this country back. What happened to the Republican party? They used to be about constitutional rights. Now all they're about is beating the war drum, continuing our same policy in the failed war on drugs, giving MORE power to the police, and opposition to basic fundamental rights. That's why I'm no longer a republican supporter. The only true republican is Ron Paul.

Instead of calling this a "progressive era" let's call it by a more appropriate name the "regressive era". Do all the nuts who pretend to be journalist work at The Nothington Post Tabloid??? I personally do not want to live in a communist country---I liked our country as it was before lunacy.

New era is right. The government is changing the United States into what will be a communist country. If the government would have tried something like this 40+ years ago they would not have gotten this far.
People today don't care or are too distracted to notice. Pretty sad.

All the signs of total government control is evident. Step by step they move closer. It is not going to happen all at once it is baby steps by Republican and Democrat alike.

FEAR THE PROGRESSIVES ! They do not have your best interests at heart. Their basic idea of success is for equality in all things, for all people, in all their individual endeavors ! That is COMMUNISM in it's purest form. Obama , his financiers, his czars, his minions, his unions, his organizations and their backers, will destroy what America has stood, and will stand for if we dont "WAKE UP" ! ! ! AMERICA do not allow your silence to permit the overthrow of our country !

Man this guy is really out there.
He must have missed the part where that progressive era is coming to a close and they are about to witness the reemergence of Conservatism.
Back of the bus for another 30 years, libs!

Anyone who ever visited a Communist country during the 70s will have a clue as to what Communism means.
There will never come a time when everything in America from the Florist to the Bakers is state owned, there will never be a time when everything you watch or read is censored, where every citizen is under surveillance and can be marched off to a Gulag for any trivial infraction..
This country actually has been socialist for decades, what do you think State schools and medicaid are, and any other government run program?.
Trouble with you Yanks is that you had it too good for too long, now its time to catch up with he rest of the world and pay more for resources and get paid less for doing more.
Face facts the good times are over and have been since 9/11.

Wait till mid term elections and then see how well the Dems are doing. If the election happened all over again Obama would have lost. I'm not saying that McCain would have won. Neither were a great choice for this country. McCain was just the lesser of two evils.

I would have been more impressed if Obama didn't appear on TV so much, stayed in the office to do work, and met with both sides of the political lines. I didn't vote for him, but was willing to see if he would keep his promises. I had considered voting for him for the second term. Now, he has been in long enough for this country to have seen some drastic changes (like Reagan's era); however, I haven't seen anything impressive. This Health Care Bill is not the direction this country needs to go at this time, bailouts were wrong, too many czars, too many paybacks from all of his donors. and it seems that this list is just growing. We definitely need another change and that is seeing that this administration gets voted out.

Hmm, let's see here...

GOP infighting over who can be Reichwingiest of them all, splitting the right's electoral base? CHECK

GOP bigwigs endorsing candidates that are in the 'conservative party'? CHECK

GOP candidates endorsing...Democrats?!? CHECK (NY-23)

Moderates fleeing the scene of all this ugliness? CHECK

Say what you will about the Huffington Tabloid, but this report's dead on regarding BIG trouble for the MINORITY party.. Sorry, my little fascist freaks.
