I will also like to have you read this post as well http://www.politicallysocial.com/blog/view/id_26

Obama has no plans or asperations.  All he wants is to take from people who work (unless your in a union then you get away with murder) and give it to those that don't.  OBAMA NEEDS TO STOP TELLING AMERICANS WHAT WE WANT AND WHAT WE NEED AND START LISTENING TO US.  Bill Clinton is a perfect example, he changed course and message after he got blown away in the midterms.  Is Obama smart enough? maybe but i think his ego will get in the way.  I will tell you I would take slick Willie over a socialist or progressive or whatever Obama calls himself these days.  His own advisors have been quoted saying they are socialist and say they respect and admire people like chairman mae(sp)  He has no new ideas he is taking the plays from the democrats that screwed up the last depression.  He is trying to borrow our way out of debt.  You seem like your smart enough to know that is not the way to go!  And yes i am not so happy with the republican party either.  I think i said it right in my post.  All we can hope is Obama only serves one term.  And yes with these back room deals he makes and shuts out the republican party from any kind of talks or debate, broken campaign promisses, saying one thing while he does another, buying senate votes, no transparency, blaming other people for his mistakes.... Then Yes he is the definition of slimeball.  But it is his nature he is a lawyer.

I don't know if you are old enough to remember good ol Jimmy Carter, he's the guy that just won't shut up, Well those were the days baby! Gas lines, terrorists taking over the american embassy (yeah that's american soil), rolling black outs, energy crisis, unemployment i could go on..... THANK GOT FOR RONALD WILSON REGAN to save our asses before Jimmy started making us all speak Russian.

I am amazed that you are calling this man a slimeball. Do you think that the Republican party did any better during their time at the helm?  Truly why point fingers at one man and one party? All of them need to be accountable. I feel the President needs to stop listening to the old guard and go back to his own ideas, his own aspirations then pull the best of the best from both parties and maybe even some independents. Open everything up to the American people and we need to get off our collective asses stop complaining and have a try hand in our nations outcome. Stop the hate and party bickering, that is business as usual. Move towards, making change by letting the party pointing "ease on down the road" as it were. Then we stand a chance of surviving and growing.
