For OpEdNews: W. Christopher Epler (Bill) - Writer

It was just announced that Obama is no longer prioritizing stopping astronomical tax breaks for the America's multi millionaires and multi billionaires.  In other words, the elites.  The announcement left open the "possibility" that he might do it later.  Yeah -- in your dreams.

Here's a Reuters story (11/22) to check out:

The title of the piece is: “Obama may delay high-income tax-cut repeal: aide.”

Whoa!  Is that ever a red flag for coming national disasters!  Its right up there with the support of the archetypal traitor to the United States of America, Joe (I hate Democrats!) Lieberman; a support which extends to letting this slime even keep his committee chairmanships. And even barnyard animals know this has little or nothing to do with the magic "60" number, since Lieberman will vote against Democratic projects more than any random Republican.

OK, there's two items here:

(1.)  First Obama's high appointments to date contains ZERO liberals and ZERO indication that his commitment (which he voiced over and over again!) to the Israeli/Palestinian conflict and the Middle Eastern chaos in general would be approached with compromise and diplomacy.  And surely diplomacy is "appropriate" since the State of Israel DIDN'T EVEN EXIST a few decades ago, until the Palestinians were told (April Fool!) huge areas of what used to be their country was now "another" country. 

Understandably, the Palestinians were a tad upset and these two factions have been warring ever since.  To get a feel of this abacadra (engineered by English aristocrats), imagine what would have happened if the infinitely arrogant English told countries like France, Germany, Italy, or Spain, etc. that (April Fool!) huge areas of your country are now "another" country. 

This history is lost on our younger citizens, but for those of you who don't realize this, please keep in mind that the ONLY "justifications" for this metamorphosis of what was 100% the State of Palestine for centuries, were "religious comments" from an arbitrary religious book to which most of the planet is sublimely indifferent, and thus should be kept light years away from the REAL WORLD of national/international social dynamics.  However, this is the sort of thing  theocracies do without blinking an eye.

Indeed, there was NOTHING our genius founding fathers took more seriously that setting up fire wall after fire wall to keep the religious fanatics the English so enthusiastically "dumped" into the new world from contaminating a government straight from the Enlightenment with their wacko hatreds and stupidities.

But back to Obama.  The tragedy (at least for millions of progressives and liberals) is that Obama's approach to the Middle East is turning out to be a mere recycling of DLC/Clinton right wingers (never forget the 2006 congress of dem traitors were puppets filled with the hands of the DLC).

Apparently we must live with the irony that John McCain wasn't the one to chain us to a dead a rotting past, but President Elect Obama is past, past, and nothing but past -- which means the Middle East, in all its multiple tragedies will be samo, samo. 

Is this exaggeration or hyperbole?  It would be if even two or three liberals had highly placed appointments, but there are fewer liberals in Obama's "team" than there are dogs on Mars.

Item number two is what millions of us have been praying might still happen.  OK, Obama has been "bought off" (a near certain explanation) when it comes to international policy, but there still was the question of his national policies, but the announced catastrophic possibility that he will extend tax breaks for the elites indefinitely is literally giving the finger to working class Americans.  

Jeez, haven't we been down this road before?  The Bush Administration was basically run by elites and the Israeli lunatic right wing fringe (specially the neocon cabal who wagged the tail of American foreign policy for at least eight straight years).
