Why are Libs trying to downplay Obama's vote to NOT raise the debt ceiling?

Because he wasnt the one with the credit card then but he is now.

I'm surprised he didn't vote "present". He voted "present" 137 times during his six-months experience, as Illinois Senator. He would have had more opportunity to display his brilliance, but Democrats in their infinite wisdom nominated him for President.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
