re: #490 Dark_Falcon

Calling Obama that does bother me. It was intended to call attention to Obama’s style of campaigning and the way some people fawned over him. Voight was also saying that Obama was promising things he could not deliver, which does look to be a correct statement.

A bit over the top, there, DF. Obama’s agenda has been stalled by D’s, by and large, rather than R’s. And it is because of fear of doing the right thing versus lobbyist threats to potential opponents in their next election cycle and special interest dollars to those R’s.

It’s institutional inertia in DC, and it is totally money driven. Nothing is related to the Social Contract anymore, and it is a cancer in the land.
