Obama disappoints me...

Exactly. We went from Nixon to Carter.

Man, I so hate these wild swings.

First of all, let's give it a little more time to declare Obama another Carter. Second of all, Nixon was quite a bit more competent, in my view, than Bush 43. Less ethical and more power-hungry, but definitely more competent.

You're also viewing Nixon in the light of history. What will you think of Bush '43 in 30 years?

The parallels between Obama and Carter are striking, right down to their energy policy.

So, you're asking me what I'll think of Bush 43 in 30 years, but won't ask yourself what you'll think of Obama by the end if his term, let alone 30 years?

Cleary when conservative presidents get elected its a well researched decision made by clear thinking, on the other hand when people elect a non conservative president it is through hysteria or some kind of delusion or clever marketing campaign...

Those damn opposition we had the better ideas but they had the snazzy market campaign or the better soundbytes or more advertising or a better speaker...

It happens to lots of opposition parties and they don't attribute it to some messiah perception... some people just don't take losing that well i guess...

Well, I dunno.

I am willing to hear them out. Vuk is an articulate guy, even though I strongly disagree with him. I'm willing to listen, in a civil manner, to his complaints, if there are any that are real and can be addressed.
