Change More of the Same I Can Believe In
Will Obama's first term turn out to be a de facto third Bush term?
In light of the downturn, Mr. Obama is also said to be reconsidering a key campaign pledge: his proposal to repeal the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans. According to several people familiar with the discussions, he might instead let those tax cuts expire as scheduled in 2011, effectively delaying any tax increase while he gives his stimulus plan a chance to work.Between this and hints that Robert Gates may stay on as Secretary of Defense, it looks as though those most disappointed by an Obama presidency may be the people who voted for him.

They won't be disappointed, bec. they'll just keep making excuses. Blame it on Bush or blame it on us nonbelievers for not working hard enough for The One.

Funny how the MSM missed the story line that by electing Obama we really get the third term of the Clinton administration.
Probably not news worthy - or racist.

The leftist illuminati put so much emphasis on the amazing things that Obama was going to do that i think we're bound to be disappointed
