How do feel now?
| Sat, 12-13-2008 - 4:36am |
I just want to know how liberals are feeling about Obama's recent rescindents of pretty much all of his campaign-worthy promises.
I knew all along there would be no "Hope and Change," but others decided to believe Obama's words.

I personally just love Barney Frank.
LOL!
No vote is worthless.
We all will watch what Obama does, and then vote again in four years. We shall see who is right.

"You have no power over my body..." ~ Anne Hutchinson
The very definition of socialism is Bush's Second Bailout Package of $800 billion.
Frank isn't flawless. It's also hard for me to listen to him without being strongly reminded of Jimmy Durante. But Barney hit the mark in observing that Bush has been irrelevant for at least a month now.
Blaming Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac or the Community Redevelopment Act alone is a bit like focusing on the bit of iceberg which shows above water level--90% of the problem is hidden from view.
There are many factors in the economic disaster and Republicans have been steering the ship of state for the past eight years, six of those without any kind of input from the opposition. At ANY point during those six years, Republicans had more than enough power to make changes--BUT DID NOT. And Bush still had veto power in the past two years--not enough Democrats in the Senate to over-ride his nonsense without Republican collaboration. Evidently enough voters recognized this salient fact and decided that it was more than time to replace captain and crew.
As Edith Ann would say, "And that's the truth!"
No vote is worthless.
Really?
