Although, I liked the fact that Obama was able to tap into the population to raise so much money

Not in the way we all think he did. He raised so much from people giving $1,000+. And those are still mostly the people he caters to.


Oh come on........I know Obama bashing has become the soup du jour but really have you looked the change of regulations on your credit cards lately......the statements have been going out for the past three months. I didn't give Obama $1k and I am benefiting from those change of regs. Aren't you? Were we not supposed to benefit?

Tim F. gives me nothing but flack about the proposal the Obama administration made for GM....a proposal that benefited the union members. Were those $1k donors? I know union members get paid well but.....

Is health insurance reform supposed to benefit only the $1k donors? It doesn't look like it to me.

The problem in this country is not whether anyone is a centrist or not, left or right......but the non stop bitching that goes on. The word, compromise, seems to have been deleted from the American lexicon. One week its gays who are unhappy, the next week its blacks, the week after that its women etc.

It seems everyone wants their president created in the image they have in mind and everything he does must cater to their particular needs. It ain't going to happen. This inner squabbling is how the left lost the nation in the past and it will happen again.

Actually, I should put a caveat on this post.......this rant isn't really directed at you. You are not here enough to complain. I am just tired of hearing the complaints in general.
