With all due respect, I am talking about something completely different than what you think. I understand what you are saying very well. Maybe the best way to express it is to go back to the 60's. The dems had a hard spilt between establishment dems (LBJ and Humphry) and the new ad hoc dems lead by Robert kennedy and Eugene Macarthy. I see Obama as Humphrey and Howard Dean and Robert Kennedy. What do you think that split was about; and who was right and who was wrong? Take just one issue "real estate" Obama did nothing to solve that problem; and solvign it was integral to our economic problem. There was so much he could have done to help the middle class home owners with jobs and good credit to refinance and he did nothing but left it all to the banks who are screwing everyone. I am in the business and once again housing sales slumped more than expected and gold and silver still skyrocketing. <<Koan you are reminding me of the Republicans with their "ideological purity test" on every issue. In the real world you take two steps forward and one step back, then repeat. Listen you can argue around the edges of his policy, but it's crazy for a liberal to condemn the guy cause you didn't get everything you want. In a Democracy you never will. If he was King and could just issue decrees you might have a point.>>
