If you voted for him because he promised "change," you are getting what you asked for. Aren't you sorry you didn't examine his career a little more closely to find out what kind of change might be in store for you? It's not like his past was erased, just underreported on during the campaign
On one hand I hear people saying how Obama hasn't changed anything, that he is just another Bush. On the other hand, people talk about how Obama is ruining the country, and if he gets what he wants that he will ruin the country for the quote "real americans".
You can't have it both ways, either Obama is trying to change things or he isn't. And if he isn't doing anything then why is Obama getting relentlessly attacked worse than I ever remember a president being attacked.
The reason is, the conservatives in this country are very scared of the change Obama will make, he wants the change but he can't do it alone. That isn't his fault, he is trying. Outside of him going against his promises of government transparency, he has been doing everything he said he was going to do. People blow his supposed "associations" so far out of context its not even funny. People keep talking about communism like its 1950 again, no one wants communism, its never going to happen in this world. The democrats don't want communism.

bush was ruining the country and obama is continuing to ruin the country. there is no disconnect between those two ideas. obama is trying to do it at a faster pace than bush, with a greater debt load, fighting more wars, etc., but it is still the same game. i agree that our country will not go communist nor would americans allow the country to go communist. i don't even think that is obama's agenda. i think he is a global corporatist working for a wall street titan (tied into the federal reserve). there has been a lot of lip service paid to wall street reform but no action and, instead, obama is trying to increase the power of the federal reserve and decrease the transparency. if you don't think that transparency is important you are missing the WHOLE economic picture!
As far as I can tell a majority of Americans elected this Congress last Fall. We have our Congress and like it that way. The Congress can be improved by electing more DEMOCRATS in 2010. Then we will be able to make and America for ALL Americans, not just the crony capitalist, security frauds, and speculative bankers.
