Ragnar changed my mind about quite a few things Ray, he was good at that.
He also infuriated the hell out of me at times.

Hey I was kinda wondering how all you Obama for Change supporters feel now that it's becoming obvioius that you were played by the Clintons & the DNC. It seems you didn't really vote in change, you voted in a Black facade to the 3rd term Clinton admin.

It's kinda slick the way they did the old bait & switch, Ya put your shoulder behind the Candidate who could garner the most ethnic votes, flash the race card to ensure the ethnic group gets out and votes for the new face of America, then once you grab the White House, you load it up with old Clinton staffers behind this new Black Facade.

But hey, It's still a great day for America, we have the first Black Socialist President in History and The Clintons got their 3rd term.

That's gotta be a win win for somebody..............I guess




This also explains how a inexperienced Senator could become President in such a short time on the stage.

Let's not forget all the favors he's paying back by putting his Chicago political Club in positions either PoopDeck.

Take a hard look at the background for Janice whatshername and you'd see that she's essentially a unrepentant slum landlord. Watch her eventually get Sec. of HUD, with a Democratic party in support of the nomination.

Change we can believe in is starting to feel like deja vu. Hillary at State, Holder as AG (deputy AG under Clinton that was instrumental in the pardons of not just Marc Rich, but domestic terrorists as well), Emanuel as Chief of Staff, Podesta doing Transition. Talk of Summers at Treasury.

Now if he could just find something for Lugar, so Daniels could appoint a real Republican to replace him.

Haha

Obama hasnt actually DONE anything yet and you are already complaining!!

Hey, many of us think it is a GOOD thing to hire people who are COMPETENT and have some EXPERIENCE in doing what they were hired for.

We Dems just dont have as many horse racing enthusiasts to put into critical jobs as the Repubs seemed to have. Not to mention beauty pageant runner-ups.

Heckuva job!!

Yeah John, Valarie, my memory is a blank after 10pm.

Sck,
Obama is doing something, he's appointing people to positions. His method of doing so, and the people he's picking indicates he is following politics as normal. So much for change so far.
Competent and experience? Look up the buddies from his old political machine he's naming to the jobs - start with Valarie Jarrett. She's competent at running a slum.

When are you guy's going to figure it out. Democrats and the far liberal left are different. The are special, the chosen, the epitome of what god meant for us to be and they can do no wrong. Even when having done wrong is apparent it has a "different" meaning. Fact is fact unless you are a "Dem" one.

You have to be in office first to be able to do wrong. And neither Obama or any of his appointees (one so far, or is it two out of thousands?) has been in office yet.

But hey, I am happy to be "the epitome of what god meant for us to be". At least I try. At least I own a sailboat which is a step in the right direction.

PS It occurs to me I should inform my wife about my promotion to being the "epitome of what god meant for us to be". Maybe she will show more respect now. Thanks for the mention!!!!
