And I started a thread today PRAISING OBAMA!!!

Not to mention posting a NY Times Oped piece even though it took the usual potshot at the GOP which had a intelligent suggestion at the end.

I'm freakin centrist today!

The truth is despite the rumors to the contrary I read both sides. I dislike the vast majority of politicians regardless of party but the Democrats seem to have virtually no one that is for what I am for. Hell in KY there is hardly a GOP politician that you dont want to smack in the face. Ernie Fletcher may be the worst governor (outside of Blago of course) in the last 50 years or any state. I hope everyday that David Williams dies a painful death, not just dead but painfully so. I think Arlen Spector is a buffoon. ( his demise wouldnt bother me much either)

The problem and the reason i rarely link to the Times or other liberal places is that i rarely agree with much they say. Most of the time even when they have a semi-good idea it is wrapped in antiBush rhetoric that people like some of our resident libs here just eat up. They wind up missing the message anyhow.

I hoped that Obama would actually do as he said, or at the very least, implied he would. I didnt vote for him and hoped but doubted his centrist move was actually real. It is readily apparent that he isnt despite the pleas to the contrary. He appears to be trying but his agenda simply is far too left for me and a lot of others. I saw on AOL today a poll that said 59% of people voting were very unhappy with the job he was doing. I understand that it wasnt scientific but there were over 400,000 votes. Everywhere I go and everyone I talk to is unhappy though some still cant get Bush off their minds. I dont hang in the ghetto much but I do talk to other business owners and regular people who are terrified by the moves this administration has made. They would be even moreso if the media didnt continue with the full scale Obamalovefest and actually covered the reality of some of these programs instead of simply putting sound bytes out there. I mean who wouldnt be against evil global warming? Well a lot of people wouldnt give a damn about it when they found out they may be out thousands of dollars a year with "environmental reform".

Some may see this as partisan bs. Others still see things with rosecolored glasses. But those who wish to not debate the reality of the issues and simply keep beating the Bush dog will keep starting threads like this.
