124. I note that of the first 100 promises, he's kept 25
Edited on Mon Mar-14-11 08:26 AM by caseymoz
And which of these were anything major? I mean, I'm thankful for the credit card bill of rights, but could I have expected that, and a better version of it, with Dean, Kucinich or even Hillary Clinton?

I think respect for human rights, limiting executive authority and respecting Whistleblowers to be like, boilerplate for liberals. Not to mention closing Guantanamo? Stopping two wars (after magnanimously accepting the Nobel Peace Prize for not being Bush)? Nothing counts to me if those aren't respected. Nothing. Even Bush I & II, Reagan and Nixon had pet "liberal programs." So Obama has a handful more.

Call me ungrateful that he isn't Dubya. I don't friggin care. I'll vote against him in the primaries and sit out the general. He has to go!
