Does anyone have any examples of Obama going against his party?

That is true change.

True change is voting for what you believe in.. not what you should vote for based on your party.

Let me give you examples with our next president, Mccain.

McCain co-sponsored an immigration reform bill with Ted Kennedy. It really had the republicans steaming.

McCain voted against Bush's huge energy bill that gave tax breaks to big oil. Again, hugely unpopular with the republicans. Btw, Obama voted for it. He gets tons and tons of money from big oil.

McCain voted for and sponsored bills based on what he though was right. Obama makes every decision based on what he should do based on his party and staying in power.

So, Libs, give me some examples of Obama p*ssing off his party.

If he's the true agent of change he should have some.

Why would he have to go against the party that is usually right?

Seriously though, anyone have an example?

Does anyone really care that Obama and change DO NOT go together based on any historical evidence whatsoever?

This is comical.. not one example.

This man is not anti-Bush.

This man is the most liberal Senator in America.

Do any of you care?

Do you have any idea how bad things will be if his ideas happen?

Do you have any idea what it will be like when a far left president is in their.. nothing will get done.. the far right and far left get nothing done.

You need a man in the middle.. willing to work across the aisle.

You people are blind as bats.

Come on.. one example of Obama going against his party??? Anyone???
