michaelr I am sorry to hear that you are disappointed, but I am afraid it is your own doing.


Mousethief is right. Obama did talk about drilling before the election, you had a chance to change your vote.

It might be useful for you to start a thread listing other promises you expected and we can all discuss if those campaign promises are still in effect.

I have to say that I am not disappointed at all, considering the financial collapse, things are looking pretty much as expected. The only thought that occurs to me as the cause of that is that I heard different promises from you.

I am a little disappointed about Gitmo, but not with Obama. He tried. But I thought that was symbolic anyway. Frankly I am pleased to have a government that is not constantly saying that it is a good and useful thing to torture people.
