I've never claimed Obama to be any kind of messiah. That's Vi's thing, he's the messiah to Vi. I think Obama is a man that deserves a chance to try to turn this country around.
Turn it around from where, miss? Obama has proposed spending another trillion dollars of OUR money on government programs. That will do nothing but increase the power of government.
Has it also escaped your attention that this bailout is a BUSH bill? Obama hasn't taken over as president yet, but you sure are ready to blame the Bush crash and burn on him.
Again, you are demonstrating your lack of historical history. This mess with housing started with the Carter administration and has continued since.
If we aren't enslaved under the bush regime what are we? Homeland security, patriot act, can't take anything on an airplane anymore. Are you so blind and deaf to the civil liberties we've already handed over in the name of the war on terrorism?
Again, this started long before you were born, miss. I find it interesting how you younger people take such issue, and for good reason, with the erosion of personal privacy under the Bush administration, but give no thought about the tax on income (labor), the withholding tax, the filing of your financial confession every April 15, and just take it like that's the way its supposed to be. You are already enslaved economically, miss ... and the sad part is, you don't even realize it.
I can't believe you are laying the failures of the current administration on Obama, that's really the American thing to do, pass the buck, thanks Vi for always defining the true nature of humans for all of us who suffer from compassion.
