Oh Wow!

I can't believe that some of the Dems could even think to not agree with Pres.-Elect Obama.

If this is starting now, just wait till Pres.-Elect Obama starts giving details on some of his plans & ideas, then what will those rifts turn into?

Pres.-Elect Obama has my support, till he does something that goes against my conscience or principles!

Can we just have NO STIMULUS please? Temporarily extend unemployment benefits if they want, but the $1.2 trillion budget deficit number does NOT include any stimulus. With "stimulus" we're looking at the country taking on $7,000 of debt for every man woman and child or around $15,000 per worker. Sorry, just can't afford it.

Propaganda

Of course there really are few if any real rifts. Obamas fellow democrats are throwing up TOKEN PR resistance as is THE COMMON PRACTICE IN DC!!!

All the democrat Obama cronies are really saying is that "THERE IS NOT ENOUGH PORK IN THIS BILL FOR MY DISTRICT AND UNTIL THERE IS I WON'T VOTE FOR IT"!!

Can we just call a spade a spade please!!!

Does anyone not remember 6 weeks ago when GM/FORD/CHRYSLER all showed up in DC and were DENIED $$ and Congress (both sides) told them to go home and go bankrupt. Congressional leaders strolled up to the cameras to talk tough about how they would not waste your money on innefficent/bloated-union companies.

Then, not two weeks later what did they all allow to happen? They said "we can't afford to have them go bankrupt"!!

TRANSLATION: WE CAN'T AFFORD TO STIFF THE LOBBYISTS ie. UNIONS etc. WHO BRIBED US WITH CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS AND STRONG ARM TACTICs FOR VOTES TO GET US ELECTED!!!!

Washington DC is filled with vile treasonous traitors who have been bought out by lobbyists and YOUR INTERESTS ARE NEVER SERVED!!!

VOTE EVERY CURRENT POLITICIAN OUT and regularly rotate. Its the only safe way.
