Exactlty the 'promises that got him elected' were exatctly that... Promises to get him elected. Delivering on those promises is quite another mater. Kind of like when you promissed Mommy to be a good boy :rotfl:

Thats nothing new though, politicians have been doing that since the foundnig of the US.

And they've been catching flak for not following through on them as long as they've been making them, hence my point.

Well, in this "motherland", there may be a red mark on your record, but they probably won't be able to find your record, anyway, so it makes no difference:hmm:

I think Neal could save himself and our moderators alot of GRIEF by shutting down GT till everyone kools off.

Too many threads and posts have gotten close to being flameing.

After all I was under the assumption this was a Gameing website first and formost.

Not a politicial soapbox as it seems to be becomeing.
