The sweet, sweet flavor of schadenfreude. Plenty of hope, but precious little change.
YOU BELIEVED HIM. Suckers! How many broken promises is this so far? Let’s see… Iraq? Yep, we’re staying a good long time there. Afghanistan? More troops going. Guantanamo Bay? Staying open – he “hopes” to “try” to close it by the end of his first term! Warrantless wiretapping? It’s going to continue. And now thanks to a “classified loophole” you’d have taken to the streets with papier mache puppets of Bush and Cheney over, what you call “torture” will apparently continue.
And he hasn’t. Even. Been. Inaugurated yet.
That’s what you get for voting in a media construct who was never seriously vetted and doesn’t have a significant track record. The next four years are going to be a lot more entertaining than I expected.
Well said Laura! Ah, now I feel soooo vindicated for my vote for McCain lol.
The only change I can see is Bush leaving and him taking over! He sure didn’t make any change in the way he packed his Cabinet with Clintonites. I think he realizes the President’s job is a little tougher than he thought – or he was told! It looks easy when you are downing the one doing the job, but harder when it happens to be you at the helm.
