    Ya it was. I found myself agreeing with everything he said. I knew that Obama thought like me. I just hope he does what he says because yesterday was like a "double down" move like n blackjack. He promised the world again so we will see if he will deliver.

    The only major thing I didn't like was how he is trying to skip the part aout the banks getting trillions in bailouts. He doesn't want to punish banks which means there won't be accountability.

    Also I notice the political section is getting pretty thin. Only like 4 people that talk in it. I see the rest went back to watching TMZ.

    88Mariner are you online!!!!!! Glad you're back this board needs it.

      It got quiet when things started looking bad for democrats for a while there..... like with the loss of Ted Kennedy's seat and the Senate super-majority. You could hear the crickets in here.

          Great speech, blah, blah, blah

          Is this guy actually going to do anything different to Bush?

          Actions speak louder than words.
          “A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.”
          Marcus Tullius Cicero

              Actually, at least for me, it had a lot more to do with the fact that the intelligent discussion that used to take place in here has been drown out by self-aggrandizing jibberish.

                Toasty that's not fair.. You Democrats needed some humble pie.. and now you've had a piece so get back to the drawing board and own your legislation.. The jibberish was also right.. It isn't better out there. You educated Dems need to get down from your ivory tower and talk to the lowly peasants..

                Didn't you read my post. I'm giving him a second chance.. He fucks this up though and I will never forgive him. He should just pass what he wants and own it.. If it works great... I'm all for it.. If it doens't and it gets worse well the reality is a revolution is on the horizon..

                What I'm forgiving him for

                Not sending bankers to jail
                Not getting out of Gitmo
                Not fulfilling his campaign promises basically wraps it up

                But if he fucks up the economy more I will never forgive him.

                  1) How is he not getting out of Gitmo? It is closing soon.
                  2) How can he just pass what he wants and own it? Bills have to get Congressional approval to pass, the President can't pass arbitrary laws as he sees fit.

                  I'm confused on these points....

                    Gitmo isn't closed and if it does a different one better not pop up
                    He doesn't need 60 votes to pass legislation
                    Dems own house, senate, white house

                    We have already gone over this before..

                    I hate it when you act stupid reso..

                        obama certainly does give good speeches, i'll give him that. he also bends truth like a MF. sorry, i can't stand him. that's why i barely ever post on the politics section anymore. i know a lot of people on here like him which is why i just prefer to stay uninvolved now for the most part. i'll stick to music.
                        Should I fuck you at that not until the ass, inject then tremendously hard bumschen and to the termination in the eyes yes?

                            ^ yeah but runningman thats the kind of attitude that runs people off. you can't belittle people all the time and expect them to keep interacting with you.
