So many angry, bitterly disappointed right wingers criticize Obama for not yet wrapping up Bush's two mismanaged middle east wars...

I offer a thoughtful analogy for this mindset:

It's like you've just had the front end of your car crumpled by a drunk driver who ran a red light. Five minutes later, you're screaming at the tow truck driver because the body work isn't complete yet.

Did the Great and Mighty Oz-bama promise during his campaign that he would close Gitmo, and get out of Afghanistan and Iraq? Somehow I think he did.

Angry ? Bitter ?

Barry Soetoro (a.k.a. Barack Hussein Obama) is just a glorified
'Weiner' who's word can not be taken honestly !

"I promise 100% transparency in my administration."

"I promise NO NEW TAXES on a family making less than $250K a year."

"I will allow 5 days of public comment before I sign any bills."

"I will remove earmarks for PORK projects before I sign any bill."

"I will end Income Tax for seniors making less than $50K a year"

"I'll put the Health Care negotiations on CSPAN so everyone can see who is at the table!"

"I'll have no lobbyists in my administration"

The OBAMA motto: We've got what it takes, to take what you've got!

His actions have clearly spoken beyond his promises and words

I wouldn't call it a "phobia". That would imply an irrational fear. My fear of Skippy isn't irrational. The damage he can do to this country is very real.

I wouldn't be screaming at the tow truck driver for not fixing it, but I would certainly be screaming if he took out a sledge hammer and went to work making it worse.
