It pains me to have to respond to such posts, but if you have read my posts on this and other threads you wouldn't have made such a statement.

We need to end this Left vs. Right, Democrat vs. Republican, Obama vs. Bush nonsense. The point of my posts and this thread is that all of these are essentially the same and, in particular, Obama is essentially the same as Bush, imagery and superficiality notwithstanding.

We are being destroyed by both parties who are both bought and paid for by the Corporate Fascists. Please realize this and get on board. With all due respect.

If I WERE judging him as what most people think- that's he's a president in the textbook version, I'd be very disappointed as he's gone against nearly every campaign promise he made.
The thing is that with Bush-Cheney it was easy to see that you are dealing with evil scum. With Obama you have this pretense of goodness which has been shown to be unsubstantiated. In this respect, Obama is much worse. He is the wolf in sheep clothing. Stealthily evil.

It wasn't directed to you with all due respect. But I understand where your coming from.

Obama's signing statement on the omnibus spending bill suggests that he will carry on Bush's policy, in spite of his campaign pledges to the contrary.

About as long as it takes a gambling addict to figure out they aren't going to win a million dollars, till they are broke and all the bright and shiny lights that enticed them into their ignorance have faded away....

They will never admit they made the mistake of our lifetime.

They are not honest enough people to ever admit they made a huge mistake in allowing this scam artist to sucker them so badly.

That is an easy one- When they get the Tax bill for the multi trillion dollar "stimulous". Once you hit people's wallets that is when they all of a sudden get angry.
Exactly!

Money talks and B.S. walks.
