18. Read this list and THINK
You seem to be saying that we need "faith" that "Change We Can Believe In" is right around the corner. It always is....

Yet, issue after issue, it's change that didn't happen.

- Iraq
- Afghanistan
- Health Care - poor planning, execution. Remember "No back room deals - all negotiations will take place live in C-Span?"
- Giving away to Big Pharma his promise to negotiate drug rates
- Wall Street handouts
- Corporate cabinet, corporate "advisory teams" - this White House is dominated by the same old corporate crowd.
- Economic team from the same crowd that ruined us
- EFCA (!!!!!!!)
- Don't ask don't tell
- Backpedaling on trade issues.

You know, this list really does go on and on.

This isn't about anything but campaigning for CHANGE and governing with the same old crowd. Disheartened, disappointed, crushed, dashed hopes. That's ME. Call it negative or call it reality. It is what it is, what it is, what it is.

I didn't vote to have faith. I voted to have HOPE and for CHANGE!
