Where's Obam-o?

In Madison, Wisconsin over the last couple of weeks, we've seen real political courage--in the form of 14 State Senators hightailing it to Illinois to stand up for the rights of working people to collectively bargain, and standing up to the Koch brothers paid for governor, Scott Walker. We've seen Democratic Party core constituencies like labor, women, and the young marching in the streets--all over the country--fighting for progressive values and for the working people of this country so that they don't lose their piece of the American dream. Move.On, True Majority, Rachel Maddow, The Daily Kos, Digby, The AFl-CIO, Lawrence O'Donnell--so many Liberal organizations and spokespersons that I can't even remember them all are reporting and supporting the cause. Hell, even foot in mouth disease Biden managed to have some kind words for unions today. Notice anyone missing? As usual, the gutless wonder, President Obama has gone MIA. Thanks for nothing, once again, Barack! Peace, emaycee
