Can I have an itemized list of any of the past 10 president's "campaign" promises and how many of those promises actually came to fruition?
Obama is no different, just because you don't like him. I seriously hope you don't point for 4 years, because then I will have to ignore you.  |
Certainly you must feel that this is different and the media circus and supposed aura around this guy is different? It is like how people swooned over the Beatles in the 60's, a rock star mentality that makes people stop thinking with their heads.
