Somebody in control needs to listen to this guy. The fun's done and dues are in collections. Being an optimist is fine. Being a realist is better. When Walmart, the same Walmart which are purveyors of base commodities for retail customers, lowers its forecast of earnings, than we know this country is in trouble. When the Fed gets off its fairy tale about all being fine and states were headed for rough seas, this country is in trouble. When the soon to be installed president, who I may add ran on a platform of "change", uses the same stimulus package gimmick, only grander and more expensive then those used in the past, this country is in trouble.

The way his “brilliant” campaign was run — with unlimited funds — and over burdening the airwaves with his ads — tells me that he has no sense about budgets or spending.

He’s another rich frat boy who is going to tell us how to “fix” our lives.

We already know that his judgment sucks — he was in charge of the Annenburg Challenge — in charge of spending millions to improve the Chicago Schools and it was a flat out failure.

If one more troll comes along and tells us that Obama ran such a brilliant campaign — that’s why he ‘won’ — I’m going to scream and call the slimy jerk nasty names.

The facts are that Obama– with a huge unlimited budget still LOST — he had to have all sorts of “help” — he had an uncritical, fawning media, the DNC wrote rules to give him the edge — and he bought the Dem parties in caucus states in order to ‘win’.

I haven’t followed the details of the orgy (of bad taste) parties he has planned — but cost of these could help a whole lot of people stay in their homes or who the hell knows what else could be done with the lavish outpouring of funds… Obama will be owing a debt and it won’t be to his voters or to America.

I had high hopes that these people were on the up and up, but most people think this is all a big hoax. It's a different tape of MeChelle allegedly calling someone from API and going off on why her husband deserves to be President even though he's not a citizen, etc. You should keep your eye on that site, but most feel it is disreputable.

Clinton, and perhaps Panetta, have the intellectual chops to make WORLD LEADERS pay attention. No matter your position on their values, they obviously impress others as intellects. Whereas Obama is an intellectual pretender, despite having attended Harvard, he can't even fake it, esp on the world stage, his lack of command, apparent. Maybe this kind of ties in with what Krugman was saying about Michael Moore, and Gupta, too, appearance determing perception for that certain group, if it dresses smart and went to the right colleges, it MUST be smart, despite the evidence in front of them...

I think the last word I saw him utter was at Saddleback and I immediately turned it off.

I figure I can close my eyes, hold my nose, and try to suppress my gag reflex for 12-18 months until IMO he will be impeached. I haven’t watched ONE WORD of the Fraud in months and months.
