Thanks Gasmeterguy! Believe the conservative base saw more of the same if McCain were elected, but we're getting more of the same anyway.

<br />I am surprised that Obama is allowing the people to see just how disdainful he thinks of the public. Politicians are usually smarter than that. But "smart" is not one of Obama's strong points.<br

Thanks Sully! None of them are responding to voters wishes. If they were they'd be heading things in a different direction.

Thanks Rick! Lull us into believing everything's fine so we'll spend our money on whatever trinkets they're selling.

Good article until they got to the "liberal US media" part. The few corporate interests that control our media are not liberal or conservative. Their agenda has nothing to do with political ideology. That's only for the consumption of us plebes.
