It’s an old trick, but it works everytime – get people angry and/or scared and they will do stupid things like vote for Republicans.
I am sure that it would have taken Reagan, Bush Sr., or Bush Jr. only a year to strighten all of this out.
It takes more then one year to fix what it took 8 years to break, especially when the people who broke it are fighting you all of the way.

When Ezekiel Emanuel called me a “F”ing “R”e Tard, I QUIT !
I watched as Pelosi said “were not going after war crimes”.
I watched Obama go from Single Payer to Public Option, to make buying Insurance Mandatory.
I’ve come to realize the fix is in.
We thought we had it bad when they had 40 !
Oh, my GOD THEY’VE GOT 41 NOW !
IT’S TIME WE SAY GOOD-BYE TO ROE V WADE !
SAY HELLO TO MANDATORY PUBLIC PRAYER.
WITH 41, THERE’S NO STOPPING THEM NOW !
PS And they think I’m a re tard !
and if you had a brain, you’d care what they REALLY think of you. All of you who sent in your $5, $10, $15 should be mad as hell, and fire that jerk.
BUT, NOOOOOOOOOOOOO body has said a word. Not a word to Lib’s who worked hard, and gave all they could to get them elected.

JDG, your link didn’t work.
senor, it’s never a good idea to believe everything politicians say in campaigns – and a lot of people put words into Obama’s mouth that he didn’t say, expectations that were never appropriate. Once they get into office, they always hit brick walls that force them to curtail their ideas. Of course, Democrats almost never give their leaders any backing because they are chicken – once Republicans start their inevitable tirades, Democrats turn tail and run.

Yes Warren, Yes Warren–you have said it enough times so I guess you believe it.

It’s safe to bet citizen awareness and taxpayer outrage are also up.

I don’t particularly buy the idea that Obama had words put in his mouth. He had commercials saying “Yes We Can” and would list off tons of things that he can do. I remember one of them said “We can fix the economy, save the environment, create jobs” so on and so on. The theme of his campaign was “Bush did it all wrong and I can fix it”. He can’t act surprised that people would hold him to it.

^ I’ve never heard Obama say, “Yes, I can.” He never said, “I” can fix the economy or “I” can save the environment.
Why should we hold “him” to it when so few give a dern about the economy or the environment and are willing to help out?
iamthelorax said, about 4 hours ago
When he has commercials saying “Yes we can” it means “Yes HE can”. Otherwise, why elect him?
