I voted somewhat agree, but I think you are being a bit too easy here Finkie..
This man built his identity on CHANGE and transparency.. He has turned out to be just another authoritarian puppet of global financial oligarchs.
He is outbushing Bush and has trampled on our freedoms and civil liberties from day one.
Welcome to America.
Politicians lie and break promises to get elected and we've been under control of corporate oligarchs for decades. Change takes time, and expecting any major change to happen in 5 months is optimistic at best.
And I wouldn't say he's out-Bushing Bush. I'd say that thus far he's just continued with some of his policies, which is unfortunate.
Similarly Clinton and Bush 2 continued Reagan's economic policies and that's why we find ourselves in our current predicament.
One could argue that Obama's increasing use of czar's are similar to a dictatorship style. Obama has more czars than the Romanovs - who ruled Russia for 3 centuries.
Agreed, but this isn't particular to Obama. The czar position goes back to at least Reagan, from what I recall. There has been an executive branch power grab going on for quite some time.
Widdle Bear-wy-Boy Obama, was tho upthet latht week when he compwained about how doze bad, bad people at Fox News wouldn't toe da line and shill for his pwogwams de way dat dem fokes at NBC, MSNBC, ABC and CBS did.
Bear-wy was so mad at doze Fox boys for not lying to de pubwic de way dat Keef Obermann does (Keef will be wewarded when the storm troopers are organized and awl doze dirty, dirty wepubwekans will be put in fwont of a fiwing squad).
Awl of doze wealwy smart people who voted for Bear-wy Obama will be wewarded wiff highwer cwime wates in dere cities, and dey can all pwactice cawing Bawbwa Boxer, "Senator" instead of ma'am.
Widdle Bear-wy Boy Obama is hoping that you're not looking as he takes awl of your wights fwom you, but he knows that most of his voters are too stupid to care whether he is a fascist or not.
I believe he is making his moves to be a dictator.
I hope not. Cause Americans are armed with more than just rocks. We'll just flip him the finger and tell him to kiss off once we've had enough of his pompous self righteousness.

Maybe that is YOUR American, but I'm not so inclined to just sit back and let it slide. As long as we are plagued with attitudes like yours, things will never change.. We need to scream and shout when these hypocrites deceive us. THEY WORK FOR US!
Obama built his identity and marketing campaign on a promise of CHANGE and transparency.. He has lied about the specific things he campaigned on and he need to be held accountable...
Just as those social conservative dingbats who run on family values and then get caught with little boys or cheating on their wives deserve to be held to a higher standard, so does someone who represented himself as "THE CHANGE WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR"
He is out-bushing Bush... From wars in the Middle East, to back door energy and finance deals... From Illegal wire tapping and other infringements upon our privacy and civil liberties to expanding the nanny state to energy, cars, and soon enough health care and immigration...
He has his own Halliburton in GE and hired the head lobbyist for Ratheon to manage the Pentagon... This guy is more Bush than Bush ever could be and if we get out of his term(s) in one piece we will be lucky.
