Participant[quote=nostradamus]Did we have expectations? I thought he won because he ran against an invalid and a dimwit.[/quote]
Harsh words for a war vet… Read the title of this thread. Remember, he hasn’t accomplished anything yet.
It’s not necessarily an attack on Obama, it’s more on the media that painted him as a savior in order to get him elected.
He may fix things, but that doesn’t mean he’s the next FDR as the media has portrayed, and clearly convinced TheBreeze.
Personally, I think things will get worse, inflation will return, and the same fickle pundits clamoring over his greatness will be calling for his resignation.
Then Bernanke (or his successor) will raise rates, and say they should have done so in the 2nd half of 2006 too.

Participant“To its committed members (the Democratic Party) was still the party of heart, humanity, and justice, but to those removed a few paces it looked like Captain Hook’s crew– ambulance-chasing lawyers, rapacious public policy grants persons, civil rights gamesmen, ditzy-brained movie stars, fat-assed civil servant desk squatters, recovering alcoholics, recovering wife-beaters, recovering child-buggers, and so forth and so on, a grotesque line-up of ill-mannered, self-pitying, caterwauling freeloaders banging their tin cups on the pavement demanding handouts.”[Nicholas von Hoffman, columnist, The Washington Post, 11/12/94

ParticipantI’m not one to like any politicain, and I’m certain Obama will just continue to carryon the bailout nonsense, which I hate.
But I must admit, he’s a smooth and classy individual. I think he will present a much more palatable face to the rest of the world.
As far as Geither not paying his taxes. Well, I’m all for not paying taxes. More power to him. Maybe he didn’t feel it was money well spent. We all know if we could get away with it, we would. He just got caught.
