The efficiency with which congress and the president has been able to effect change is what terrifies me most. I am a strong believer in the idea of "a hobbled government is a good government". Our government is now a juggarnaut of change.

Obama's doing exactly what I expected him to do. I know a lot of people were hopeful that he'd govern from the middle, that he'd be a president for all Americans, and that, once the campaign and its rhetoric were over, he'd not pander to the extreme left wing of his party. Yeah, right. His background was utterly at odds with such hopes. To the extent he said anything, such hopes should have been dashed or at least tempered. Besides the dumbos who bought into all the hope and change crappola and the ideologues who wanted to destroy the country in just the way Obama is attempting to destroy it, I blame the MSM that committed malpractice across the board. Had the media done its job, there would not have been a large segment of this population who bought the notion that Obama would be a responsible leader and that he didn't mean what he said or what his background showed him to be.
