Considering Obama has been in office for 5 months he is DEEFINITELY responsible for all the countries woes, yea right. HE HAS THE POWER OF HIS OFFICE if he really wanted to HELP the people. Instead he wants to turn the fate of America and its people, we the people, over to a private banking cartel to decide our fates. 5 months in office is plenty of time to show us change, however, the only promise or change we get is continued Bush policies, more power to the bankers, higher taxes and "it's gonna get worse..." forget about the before it gets better part, won't happen! All the people who think he is going to make a big difference need to take off their rose colored glasses and come to grips with reality. His change is not for the better. He is putting this country in bankruptcy day by day. Had he taken stimulus money and spread it amongst the people (about $44,000 per person) then the economy would once again be booming and he would not have had to give this money to GM and other corporations. People would have went out and bought cars, put down payments on forclosed homes, etc. and perhaps that could have made a change! But he is not that smart so go figure. Oh and your that smart?

Everyone in the white house including y'alls president ( I refuse to call him mine) needs to be ran out of the white house and put on their own little island so they can continue with their rule amongst themselves.. with NO pay! I agree 100%! I also proclaimed to be a "man with no president", right after the election! As far as I'm concerned...I don't claim him as such! He may be everyone else's, he's sure not mine! He and the present government is the sorriest excuse for a government...I've seen in my life time! I know. People complain about Bush but he was by far not the worst. I'd take him back any day over what we have ( actually DON'T have!) in the white house. With is Jackie Kennedy wannabe wife. She could never compare! Yep...you got the same idea I have...finally someone, that don't have their head buried in the sand! I saw through his veil of lies from day one... I was against him from day -1! He turned the election race into a "race of race"! JMO When I went to vote, I sat at a table next to a black elderly lady with here son. He was the one that was telling/showing her what boxes to check... As I sat there, he never read the 1 st option, in order to let her make up her own mind! That is what made me realize my previous comment. He had already filled his out...there was a movement to get as many votes, anyway they could. Anyway...I'll get off this subject...will end up having to take a blood pressure pill, if I don't! Kinda like the way the "Hanging Chad" fiasco went in Florida. If they weren't for Bush they were thrown out....ALL YOU HAD TO DO WAS FOLLOW IT AND YOU WOULD HAVE SEEN FOR YOURSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!! So tell me is there any difference between the 2 parties?

The OP is spot on. Makes no difference who or what the President is, it is a puppet position any more. Bought and paid for! Government is too big to contain itself, too many laws, too much corruption and scandal, too little concern about the people other than those who exist within it (government). It is individual choice what you choose to do about it. Complain or convict thru indictment, both take action on your part but one accomplishes nothing but wasted air. Either become active in a group of your liking seeking change in our country and be labled unpatriotic, conspiracy theorist, domestic terroist or just plan ignorant, or waste your time whinning and be happy with what you get. Obama is a man, Bush was a man, puppets, unable or unwilling to battle the power behind the throne we/they have allowed to come into being. You want change, do something other than whine and we may get it, otherwise enjoy the government cheese they serve with it!

The government is a reflection of our divisions, what we love and what we hate. We will always have it no matter how many you clear out and replace. You think I am wrong, and you are right. But in reality none of us knows the whole truth. We could wipe out the whole lot of them and end up replacing them with the very same people, because each of us thinks their group should have the control. And yet people ... we the people can't even control ourselves, yet we expect differently from the people on the hill. I have to wonder if we ever knew how to truly compromise.

What exactly were you doing looking at someone elses vote? How do you know what the old lady's intentions were. Is it not possible the young man knew what she wanted and she needed assistance to find the right box. Oh no. of course it had to be sinister. what else could it have been? OK...you were not sitting there next to them, hearing their dialog(not ease dropping, because they were loud enough)! So, were you there also(I don't think so)? It was not a judgment call on my part...it was just plain and simple...he made the decisions for her, she followed his every instruction,and guess what...he did let her sigh her own name...how nice of him!! Basically, they needed yet another biased vote.

Basically, they needed yet another biased vote. Maybe they talked about what she wanted before they got there and she can't see well. I think there's a high probability of that happening. It's her son. I know what my parents were planning to do before they went to the polling booth.

And do you think people voting for McCain Palin didn't do the same, or is it only just people you assume are doing it because that is the way you interpreted their conversation, or it helps you to reconcile his win? After all because people voted for Obama that of course makes them sheep or worse, right?

We vote all those sorry humans into office so WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE GOVERNMENT WE HAVE either because we do not vote and make the choice or because we vote based on ulterior motives not associated with the betterment of this country, etc.... We the people are the government of this country and we the people need to face our responsibilities. WE THE PEOPLE can also throw them out. It is our right as per the declaration of independence.
