16. This doesn't:
"no matter which lever we pulled on election day."

Still, the "lesser of two evils" argument is a bullshit cop out. People use it to disown their vote so they can talk shit. You got what you voted for. Work toward change and quit the "suckered," "duped" and apologist crap. If you knew fine, but others knew too, and can still disagree with where things stand today. If you didn't know, then you were either not paying attention or misread his positions.

Now, maybe I and others be wrong about that- and nothing would please me better for Americans. But that's not what the record shows from certain votes in the Senate, to public statements (especially back in June) to actions and omissions that could easily We shall see. I didn't have all the expectations that so many did- and were led to believe in. What I say- while aggravating at times, is par for the course. Not so with many others- a lot of them much younger than myself- and far more easily disillusioned.


Really?

You mean all the declarations of doom and cries that Obama deceived us based on 80 days in office could be wrong? We ought to wait and see based on outcomes?

What a concept!
