I think 2008 will be the last time for a long time that our citizens fall for a candidate like Obama.So many just jumped on the bandwagon without really looking him over because they are just tired of GW Bush and the pretend Republican policies.The various problems, election of Obama and the aftermath was a wake up call to many, this decade can still be saved but it will take continued involvement.One good thing about Obama being President, it awoke the sleeping giant:arrgh!:

Which is why so much unwise legislation was enacted so quickly. Like robbers in the night, Obama, Pelosi, and Reid have robbed the people of the United States of their birth right as individuals and have waged war on the life blood of the world, capitalism.

Obama's Moral Cowardice,

The president refuses to stand up for immigration, gay rights, and religious freedom.Barack Obama's redecoration of the Oval Office includes a nice personal touch: a carpet ringed with favorite quotations from Abraham Lincoln, John F. Kennedy, both Presidents Roosevelt, and Martin Luther King Jr. The King quote, in particular, has become a kind of emblem for him: "The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice." For all the carping about his every move, the only big problem with the Obama Presidency is the gap between what's written on his rug, and what's buried under it—the distance between the President's veneration of moral leadership past and his failure, so far, to exhibit much of it himself.
