The Rolling Stone magazine for decades as been far left of centre, and
it seems that they are less than enamored by what your saviour is

so the right wing is wrong an obama's not a leftie?

those of us who are liberal knew it all the time



The problem with both extremes is that neither actually listens. Obama was
never radically left. E.g., he said he supported the Afg. war., yet some on
the left consider it a betrayal that he's increasing troop strength, perhaps
forgetting that he did this just after taking office also and he said as
much during the campaign. The right doesn't listen either, since many of his
policies are very pro-business, even Wall Str. pro-business.

In any case, I think he's doing the best he can with the Wall Str./banking
situation, given what he inherited from Bush.
