There are concerns of theirs that I share, but I don't see anything but worse if repubs are in charge, as they were, imo, worse when they were. it is a... dilimma (sp??? I hate spelling that word)...

yes, I want more from Obama in that regard. I want Rahm gone. someone today referred to Martin Luther as the mind and Malcom X as the heart... k, whatever you might think of Malcom X, imo the point is in referencing is that Obama is a 'brain', so who is the heart? dunno about you, but I don't Rahm as the 'heart'. he is all wall street. all pharma. all etc.

so, I do agree there is work to be done and change that still needs to come. I just don't think electing a Brown is a step in that direction.

Obama campaigned for less military intervention and more diplomacy. Call me naive, but that's why I voted for him. Now that Obama has lied to me and turned out to be a super hawk, I've lost all respect for him and can't stand to look at him or listen to him any longer.

As Thoreau said, "life without principle" is what big government and taxes are all about.
