Look at who he was running against. Cranky John McCain,a near economic illiterate, was the worst Republican contender since Ol' Bob Dole. The only thing to commend either was wartime experience, which we now does not translate into political excellence. Obama was elected for one reason only: George Bush's buffoonery.

"By electing Barack Obama, many Americans believed they were lofting dynamite across the Potomac River, instead he has become the Krazy Glue that holds the madness and mediocrity of Washington firmly in place." Hot dog! Still, he's got to collaborate right now and he has no choice other than to work with the current folks in Congress. Neither side should be marginalized, there's too much work to do.

Teddy Kennedy started undermining American medical care in his first bills. Governor Ronald Reagan of California warned extensively that liberals were going to use medical costs to contrive a national power base. Liberals did the same things to blacks and hispanics in welfare. Obama bragged of managing a "good" crisis. Those all prove that Mr. Obama has the ruin of America on his agenda to "change" it to an image of his socialist heart. America has reached the moment "von einer Wortwahrheit" in defining Barack Obama. He has proven the biggest mistake America ever made.

Well, actually many of us were never confused. If not for MSM propagandists propping up the empty suit during the 2008 election cycle, enough voters may have been given a chance to see thru the empty suit in time for the election. The nation is stuck with a leadership vacuum until November 2010 at least. Thanks a lot, MSM. http://libertyatstake.blogspot.com/ “It confuses many that a man who came to Washington with this much talent and political capital could stumble so profoundly.”
