For the third year in a row, he was picked as the front runner.
Well, no shit.
The guy is a financial genius, you'd think he'd be leading our country now.
But no, instead, we have the guy who people are thinking, "Gee, can he really achieve all his goals?"
WHAT goals?! To make us a socialist country? To redistribute the wealth?
I can take comfort in the fact that it takes a LONG time to turn a huge ship. And that's what the government is. I can only hope that by the time the ship starts to turn, we change our minds in 2012 and vote in someone else.
I can't believe so many people are quiet about what Obama is doing. I guess if he goes on TV and tries to scare people (i.e., "we haven't seen the economy like this since the Great Depression"), and uses happy language like "stimulus package," everyone claps and says "Yippee! Everything is gonna be okay!"
It really scares me to see how so many people are okay with this. I think we are still stuck in the mentality that if you disagree with the President, you're a racist.
Hm, oh, well. Sticks and stones...

this was interesting to me:

It just strike me that people have to actualy work LESS so they don't get penalized - and that these are the people that hold the jobs, yet have to find ways of cutting corners - even it it means layoffs - to deal with the tax issue.
its just all so frustrating. but in an effort to not get so depressed, i tell myself that people just need a year or two to see how bad and misguided these programs are (right now they are all in the fear mode). becuase the reality is that nothing will change come election time, and then what can obama say then?
i said it before - that obama got elected on the slim chance moderate voters gave him. but when he can't produce, the pendulum will swing back to the right.
You're absolutely right. Maybe that's all we need is time. Hardworking people can see that their hard-earned money is being STOLEN from them, and those looking for hand-outs are going to get more and more greedy. Nothing will make them happy.
You're absolutely right that it was the moderates that let Obama win. And I'll never forgive 'em for it. :)
