Obama promised 'Change,' when are we going to see it?

Abstract:
Right now, approximately a month after the election, I still feel exactly the same, except for the euphoric feeling I had for a week or so is now gone. For almost a year and a half, all we heard everyday is, "Change we can believe in, change in coming, vote for change," and you know what, nothing has freakin' changed....

OK, I'll say it... Obama isn't even President yet! I assume this whole rant is tongue-in-cheek. I voted for him too. Give the guy a break. At least let him come to power.

Wow... What are you, like twelve? He's been in office for A WEEK, what can anyone change in a week? I would love to see you pull our soldiers out, fix all the crappy healthcare, dril oil in oregon, and settle into the white house in a week. Honestly, I don't know what you're trying to prove here, but you obviously know nothing about politics or the world in general. Give the man some time, he's got this. Haha.

Um, Casia, when this column was published (12/5), Obama wasn't in office AT ALL.

I get that this was supposed to be funny, and some of it was (Mars! Hovercrafts!), but only until I looked at the date the column ran, and then it was all really stupid. If you wrote the column NOW, it might be funny--OBAMA PROMISED CHANGE BUT MY BANK ACCOUNT STILL REFLECTS A BALANCE OF $3.85. But the bare-bones fact that Obama wasn't in office and, seriously, had zero power to make any changes, makes your whole column fall flat.

The next time you want to write something, I'd suggest you write a love letter to ME. (well, I haven't gotten any in a looong time.) cool, thanks.

WOW...see THIS is WHAT HAPPENS when you vote for FAIRYTALES and NOT REALITY !!!! Next time vote for someone who promises a little LESS but, can ACTUALLY DO IT and make some positive changes for America. Right now you have a socialist who's only agenda is PAYING BACK THOSE WHO VOTED FOR HIM, and NO NOT YOU, the other unions and ACORN ect with what he pushed through as a "Stimulus Package". And, FYI, if you are "white", his economic advisor point blank said, "the jobs won't go to white construction workers or highly skilled" "They will go to MINORITIES AND OTHERS" and they placed provisions in there to make that STICK. You can google this and find it easily. That is ALSO where all the COMMUNITY MONEY is going, they ALSO said that. So, YES you Obama supporters HAVE BEEN DUPED. Alot of that money will go to ACORN and is hidden in the stimulus under "Neighborhood Stabilization" or something like that, but its ACORN !!!! OBAMA IS NOT THE "CHANGE" YOU VOTED FOR...You were DUPED. He is ALL about HIM, HIMSELF, oh and I did I say...HIM? Its all about his socialist, commie policies NOT ABOUT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. It's like the homeless woman who begged to him for help, (a scammer but nonetheless)...NOTICE HOW OBAMA DIDNT OFFER HER HIS EMPTY HOUSE IN CHICAGO? A REPUBLICAN offered THEIR spare house to her? Spread the wealth..ONLY IF ITS YOURS !!!! He isnt investing ANYTHING OF HIS into this....His administration DOESNT PAY TAXES...BUT HE IS RAISING YOURS with his socialized health care, giving illegals welfare and full benefits and making them citizens, paying Palenstine terrorists to IMMIGRATE to the US, and other TOTALLY STUPID plans and policies of HIS. The man doesnt even help HIS OWN AUNT living illegally in GOVERNMENT HOUSING ON YOUR DIME or his brother living in a 6x9 straw hut in Africa on a dollar a month or whatever it is....HE IS NOT INTERESTED IN HELPING YOU!!!! Remember, Michelle thinks America is a "Mean country"....and isn't "proud" to be here until her commie hubby got elected...She has ALSO been quoted as saying "Obama will never let the American people go back to life as they knew it"....You think THAT is a good thing? I can tell ya...ummm probably NOT ! Sounds like a DICTATOR to me!!! I LIKE MY LIFE THANK YOU...while America may not be perfect...and I may be struggling some....I DO NOT WANT SOME SOCIALIST COMMIE TELLING ME IF I LIKE MY LIFE OR NOT....I will DECIDE OKAY? Obama has some "chicken little the sky is falling" rhetoric to make American's think HE IS SOME GOD and ONLY HE can "fix" America....America is SO BAD OFF ONLY HE CAN FIX IT......HOGWASH !!!!! America has seen TOUGHER TIMES and Obama was NOWHERE to be SEEN LOL !!!! Probably a GOOD THING for them too...

Obama is NO GOD, he is an EVIL MAN with HIS OWN AGENDAS and ITS NOT the American people....He is ALREADY INVITING TALKS WITH TERRORISTS and NOW IS PAYING THEM TO COME IMMIGRATE TO OUR COUNTRY....and CLOSING GITMO WHICH HOLDS THEM.....THEN WE WONDER WHY BIDEN SAYS "MARK MY WORDS WE WILL BE ATTACKED IN SIX MONTHS AFTER OBAMA TAKES OFFICE"????????????

He is going TO INVITE ATTACK so he can THEN act like some Messiah in "saving America"....only it will be TOO LATE....HE IS PLAYING WITH THE AMERICA PEOPLE AS SOME PAWN.....He is basically playing "chicken" with our lives on the line....He is like a child...enforcing whatever sounds "good to him" without any care of the consequences it will bring to US....When things get SO OUT OF CONTROL he cannot handle them....HE WILL THEN INSTILL MARTIAL LAW ON US SO HE CAN CONTROL THE SITUATION AND BECOME THE COMMIE DICTATOR HE WANTS TO BE AND GIVE THE CHAOS AS AN EXCUSE TO DO THIS. He WANTS your eyes and ears focused on Bush and OTHER things...while he slips this by....Everyone BEST BE WATCHING THIS MAN....If you love your country and your family....KEEP WATCH....
