“Obama, for the first time ever, managed to insult my intelligence with his
condescending treatment of the questions submitted regarding the legalization
of marijuana. It was so out of character, and weird.”

Obama's Iraq: All Troops Out By 2011? Not So Fast
Commented Mar 02, 2009 at 12:07:45 in World
“You're correct - I was a "one-issue voter" in '08. Having a son in the infantry who has done multiple deployments in Iraq will create that sort of tunnel vision. It was simplistic of me to hope for a quick and complete withdrawal, but having to wait yet another year for the first draw-downs is what's so disappointing.
And yes, Obama knows a whole lot more about the situation there today, than he did a year ago. I get that. I just have a hard time anticipating two more years of senseless deaths brought on by Bush's treasonous abuse of the military.”

“I supported Obama, maxed-out contributions to his campaign, and worked many hours on behalf of his local campaign office - driven by his promise to withdraw two brigades per month starting 1.20.09. Needless to say, I'm profoundly disappointed.”

“I worked just as hard and am not disappointed at all. Remember, he was not lying at all, he was operating on the information that he was privileged to know at the time. I don't think he has be disingenuous at all. He is not Bush because he would not have gotten us in this mess in the first place. If he has to readjust given that he now knows more secret information that is okay with me. No I am not a blind follower of anyone, but I think we have to be open to modifications. If you don't think he is trying to bring about huge change in the way our government operates, then you are a one issue voter and are not looking at the WHOLE PICTURE. Don't you see the repeated attacks by the GOP and media. It is mind numbing to say the least. He is trying to make fundamental change that we haven't see in this country since the Civil War and Great Depression.”

“At 50, I can't remember an election where there wasn't a candidate that didn't run on *CHANGE*.
Even bush did.
That's why I didn't vote for obama and why I'm not disappointed.
A candidate says what it takes to win then when elected, backtracks.
Nice way to say untruths are told to get the position.”

“History shown us over and over that all elected presidents have lied and never kept their promises.
Meet the new boss - same as the old boss rings true. I said all along we should have voted for
Dennis Kucinich or Ron Paul but they had no chance because of the media, which always will
do the selection for us. And I have to say, the USA is not broke if we can fight two wars still!”

“Great story, Mike. You're THE only good thing about "Morning Joe".
Too bad it's not "Morning Mike". Kudos for hanging in there even as
Joe and Mika make utter fools of themselves.”

“I agree! They should give Mike Gregory's hour at 6:00. In fact I remember when he used to have an evening show on MSNBC....I believe it was "the 1st 100 days" or something like that...back when Bu$h was first elected.”

Confusing North Carolina Ballot Leaves off Votes for President
Commented Oct 27, 2008 at 13:09:27 in Home
“I voted here in NC on Saturday. Bright yellow slips of paper with a printed instruction regarding casting a vote for President separately from the straight party ticket were handed to everyone who walked in the door. And the two election officials I had to face before I received a ballot verbally explained it as well. I did not catch who the ad was sponsored by, but there's a television ad airing here that explains the ballot as well.”
