There is no left in the US (4.00 / 5)
The "Anger Left" is just a temper tantrum.  Perhaps, as you say, a distraction.  

But there is no Left in the US.  Hasn't been for years--perhaps since the 1960s.  

Ah, health care reform!  But you can no more reform health care than you can reform Wall Street.  Worse, the Medical-Industrial Complex is to be the next big bubble.  The one key provision of the health care bill will be the one requiring you to pay money to the insurance companies whether you want to or not.  Whether they will pay claims or not.  Obligatory insurance payments is how the bubble is to get started.  

It is indeed foolish to get angry at Obama.  He is doing exactly what his employers want him to do.  Understand who THEY are and everything becomes clear.  

Hint:  We are encouraged to think that we hired Obama, but we didn't.  

The Fates are kind.
