Default This is kind of funny, well, not really.

Did you miss that?
evidently.

I'm sure President Obama will deliver on many of his promises,
make progress on many others, and some will fall by the wayside
for various reasons. If you think it should be otherwise, you're
not being realistic.


Problem is, here's what many people heard:

"I won't have to worry about gas prices, or paying my mortgage".

To the best of my recollection, Obama never said anything that
would lead anyone to those conclusions. On the other hand, Bush
said he would catch those responsible for plotting 9-11. When is
that going to happen? On Obama's watch?

A lot of folks came to those conclusions because of Obama's promises
of a chicken in every pot and his promise to re distribute wealth
and provide free this and that to everyone. His speeches were
carefully crafted to suck in the barely literate and give them hope
and promises of a carefree prosperous, and happy future. What amazes
me is that he sucked in so many supposedly bright people like
yourself as well. You better hope and pray that congress starts
taking a daily dose of smart pills and begins to do the job we are
paying them to do.


Right, Jim. I was going to vote for "Bomb, Bomb Iran" and the
simple-minded Alaskan Jesus Freak.

You may not have voted for the less of two evils.

What the hell is '"Jesus Freak". You make Archie Bunker sound like a
choir boy.



Actually, I am using the term ironically. Sarah Palin actually is not a
Jesus Freak. She is the antithesis of a Jesus Freak. But you wouldn't
understand it under any circumstances.


I simply asked you to define Jesus Freak. Apparently, you don't have an
answer.
