OBAMA’S ‘CHANGE’: BACK TO THE DEMOCRATIC WASHINGTON INSIDERS at DickMorris.com


If this is what he calls change, then we are in for some ride.

If going by Dick Morris is what we call legitimate information, then we are, indeed, in for some ride, Diane.

I was listening to Dick Morris talking a few nights ago about how partisan the new Chief of Staff is, and he shifted then to discuss how Obama would not be supportive of Israel - totally ignoring that same Chief of Staff.

As far as I can tell, Dick Morris is above average, even for DC, in pushing whatever gets Dick Morris more attention and money.

That chart is absolute garbage...well, actually it isnt the chart, it was Robert Rubin who worked for the Clinton administration that fixed those unemployment numbers, they cant be trusted.

Rubin essentially cooked the books by limiting the number of people surveyed (conveniently eliminating close to 10k people from low income areas) during his stint as the Labor Secretary under Clinton. Cant wait to see what magical accounting practices he and the Obama administration have in store for us this time around so people can make more fancy charts and graphs to make their unethical reporting look good in comparison to the previous administration.

Also, do you really want to argue that the "right direction" of home ownership going up was a good thing? Have you watched the news in the last few months?

That is what they do. Liberals hate everyone and everything. They will even hate DumBO before his term is up.

If by "change", we're getting a Clinton 3rd term, I say AWESOME!

Bill Clinton was a great president. Obama will be just as good.

National debt reduction/Federal Deficit isn't within the President's reach? Influencing new home purchases isn't something he can affect? Boy, that will be a shock to the posters blaming Clinton for his role in increasing homeownership!
