I'm neither a Republican nor a Libertarian. I question authority - no matter who that authority is. If Obama decides to hire someone who's currently on the board of Chevron or a woman whose husband is responsible for NAFTA onto his foreign policy team, you can be assured that I will be calling him on it. Change, whatever - I'm not a political zombie. If Obama fucks up, and it sure looks like he's on the path to fucking up - I'm going to talk about it.

Yup - I know that. But I hate to see people just lock step behind any politician.

Yup - he seems to be on the road but not all the way there. - I hope I'll be proven wrong. It's definitely a varied team, but I would have been much happier if his team leaned more to the left. I feel like so much needs to be overcome over the past 8 years.

Voting to re-authorize the Patriot Act, & voting for the bailout, he compromises the same people who elected him.

People post about politics on forums because they're bored with themselves, the world, or something is an urgent matter with thier daily lives. Apathy ensues because it means fuck all, and it's always is nothing more than a bit of insignificant ranting. Say what you like.

How can you defend the appointment of a Chevron board member? Haven't we had enough of big oil in our government already? It's better to question than to just accept. We definitely need checks and balances and that's part of the responsibility of the people. I'm always going to ask why.

the agenda seems to be getting the big things done that require bipartisan support first: ending the iraq war, passing health care, energy, etc., and avoid the clinton fuckup of derailing his public support early on with small "controversial" issues (gays in the military early in clinton's first term, while an issue of fairness, is what got gingrich elected). congress & the people are going to be more willing to support an iraq withdrawal coming from a hawkish marine general than from say ufo-sighting kucinich. so i'd be looking for his second term for the more left-leaning policies. right now the plan as i see it is to get things done, something washington hasn't been good at for decades now. |

Any form of the Patriot Act puts the Constitution in jeopardy, which if he taught law anywhere, he would recognize compromising the Constitution is not tolerated in American law. & if you think giving the international bankers more governmental powers is good, you're sorely mistaken. Just expect the inevitable Martial Law.

I believe the the heading on the Constitution is "We The People", not "We The Supreme Court". Anyone has the right to speak out against clearly un-constitutional laws. & for so-called conspiracy theory, yr right. I'm just some nut who made up the IMF, World Bank, & Club of Rome.

The controlled environment helps. Last time I talked politics with my Ron Paulite friend, he was playing poker with the other guys and I think I screwed over his game.
