Reply #28: That happens whenever a democrat gets elected, it is not part of "change"

I don't know how old you are, but styles and bumper stickers change whenever the party in power changes. When Clinton came to power long hair and hippie styles came back in, but did our fundamental approaches change? No, we simply got a reprieve, and worse, legislation and deregulation that occured on his watch are part of what led us to where we are now.

W worshippers are embarrased, but not because of Obama, but because of W. But the reality is that all this nice feeling now is not based in much of anything really changing. The same powers and base philosophies are in place.

I guarantee that most people on this board, if you would have asked them a week before the election, would not have guessed that we would not be taking a much stronger turn away from the past. But our expectations have slackened because we don't yet want to accept that we may have been wrong.

I still don't accept that. I still believe. But I don't think we will get there unless we all rise up and MAKE the President listen. And I believe that is happening. You guys should just get on board and let's all make change happen, just as Obama said it is all supposed to work???
