1st, Bush-2 wouldn't even acknowledge that health care reform is needed. Instead, head would be buried in sand, leaving thinking organ on display.

2nd, the Supreme Court nomination would be another Thomas or Scalia.

3rd, the problem extends way beyond Obama. When impeachment was "off the table" and a majority of Democrats were comfortable with that position, it showed a problem extending way beyond Obama.

The thing is, our media, who, in a thread elsewhere, sells its access to lobbyists, marginalized candidates like Kucinich and persuaded people that their choice was between two corporate owned lackeys. And make no mistake, if Obama wasn't a corporate owned (Goldman Sachs owned) lackey, we would have seen the Reverend Wright nightly in the last 2 months of the campaign.

So, we got what we voted for, the lesser of the two evils. Since the GOP seems to have driven off the rails, Obama was the lesser by far.

You're right on one thing here. We're going to have to hound, and hound these people, at least so long as net neutrality permits. At least, Obama is hound'able. I doubt McCain would give a shit.

His promises are falling like dominoes. That's why I refused to get caught up in the Obama hysteria. I wanted to wait and see what he would do. I mean, all of them make lavish promises. Do you think anyone who was honest with the people would really get anywhere? The American people have to be lied to. If a candidate spoke the truth he or she would be looked at as being neurotic or lacking confidence. I've lost faith completely in the 2-party system and to a large extent, the American people. But I've been conditioned to think about politics. It was all my parents, Aunts and Uncles ever talked about when I was growing up. Now I'm sick of it and I want to let go but it won't let go of me because I see the consequences of what the lawmakers do all around me. If I could call down fire and brimstone on all them, I would.

and we get the licking .

not an anti-christ , whats next a pinko lib , or worse a socialist shit where is big brother when you ( dont ) need them .

So tired of labels .
