[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous] Nothing that the OP mentioned has come to pass, the economy is undeniably worse, we are in three wars now not two, Gitmo is still open, crony capitalism is certainly not dead, green energy investments have turned into green energy scandals, our international reputation has not been restored and the Patriot Act has not been repealed; [b]"Hope and Change"[/b] has become [b]"Hate and Blame"[/b] the republicans. Wealth distribution has been a total failure unless you mean wealth distribution to the 6 wealthiest counties in the US that all happen to surround DC. Maybe that is why so many posters in this forum like Obama so much... [/quote] Here is what I don't get: 1) The three wars -- Republicans want to continue Iraq and Afghanistan and thought Obama was too soft on Libya. So, they must be glad we have three wars now; 2) Gitmo -- Republicans wanted to keep Gitmo open. So, they must be happy that it is still open; 3) Crony capitalism -- of course Republicans love crony capitalism and have been linked to far more insider green energy deals than Obama. So,they probably are only disappointed that a few dollars made it to someone else's pocket. Generally, they should be happy. 4) International reputation -- Republicans don't care about our international reputation and want to fuck entire world except Israel. So, they should be happy. 5) Patriot Act -- Republicans want to continue the Patriot Act. So, they should be happy. 6) Wealth distribution has been a failure -- Republicans should be happy. Given all of this, I can understand why a liberal like myself would be disappointed by Obama. What I don't understand is why Republicans are not rallying around him. He should be the most popular Republican candidate. [/quote]
