Obama Voters’ Remorse
When will the minion realize that “truth in advertising” doesn’t apply to politicians? It’s that stubborn First Amendment thing that primarily applies to political speech.
Let’s be honest: we didn’t vote for the Barack Obama his campaign advertised. We didn’t vote for an African-American man, nor for a US senator from Illinois, nor for a father, a husband, an activist, or a young politician. We voted for the Barack Obama we fantasized — the progressive miracle worker. We voted for Change.
Millions of us stood up and shouted, handed out fliers, talked to our neighbors, donated hard-earned money, and drove people to the polls for Change. We screamed, hugged, kissed, and cried when we learned Change had come to America. We knew Change wouldn’t come overnight, that it would take time, but we were excited that we had elected a man who was open to Change, who said he wanted to consider real people’s needs while in the Oval Office. We eagerly awaited the first hints of Change, as the president-elect’s transition developed.
Suckers.
Candidates can say anything they want to potential voters. The question is are those voters smart enough to know the fact from fiction? Obama’s followers told us (in no uncertain terms) they knew more than anyone and that his “change” was something only haters would doubt.
Welcome to the world of hate.

In his month and a half as president-elect, Barack Obama has planned an FDR mass gov’t expansion, an LBJ welfare state, a Carter blame-America-first foreign policy, and a Clinton retread cabinet.
So where does the hope and change part come in?

And he’s not even officially President-Elect, either. Just wait until he gets that far.
