'Obama seems to be saying that he's in a permanent campaign mode, whereby he will always have his "mob" around to shout down & intimidate the opposition.'
I know. Isn't it beautiful?!
after eight years of dictatorship - it is hardly surprising that the riff-raff of the American peasantry would make some demands on the system, no?

The Borgen Project has informative statistics on addressing global poverty.
$30 billion ends world hunger
$550 billion is the US Defense budget
This organization has the ability, resources, and policy-makers to suppress the threat of global poverty by enacting legislation here in the US, which is tied to the United Nation's Millennium Development Goals. Please support organizations such as The Borgen Project so that we may rid the world of poverty.

Polarizing! We just had a good, strong taste of polarizing with Sarah Palin and John McCain. I think Truth Seeker is confusing his campaigners or he is still shell shocked by the Palin/McCain ticket. Look around you fella with the likes of Rush Looserbaugh and Faux News what are you complaining about.
What was REALLY disturbing was the Bush Administration who was on Permanent Campaign mode for EIGHT years. Geez, some people just have to whine.

who will finance it, maybe it will finance itself by asking the voters to "bail-out" the organizers if they want their agenda to be advocated. a Think we should keep the "unsung hero" on the payroll and hire the Obama-fellows that way we would be able the senators from Main, PA and NH who are moderate and are up for a reelection 2010 to play with the team to risk loose their seat, by the way Obama won those states with a greater margin then nation 7%.
Senator Arlen Specter is in a deep trouble obama won every age group in PA except 65+ and got 48% of the white vote 12% of the republicans and 58% of the independents.
David "unsung hero" plouffe is the real deity to the Obama supporters the one we dont share with Others, lets keep him occupied for the next 4-8 years

As an American FASCISM is wrong no matter who does it. This is a form of fascism. Using the ignorant masses to enforce his will. People have to take off there Democrat or Republican hat and look at this as an AMERICAN!

whats so funny is people have already made Obama the best president in history and he isn't even running the country yet.The other thing is he is already running for office for the next election and he hasn't even did his first term yet.He will make history be by doing good or doing bad but un tell he does his term we will not know witch way it will go.He should stop worrying about the next election and start worrying about this one it won't be easy for him he will be the president and we should back him and see what he does if he does bad the American people will know and know they got screwed but if he does good the people will be happy.People just have to remember he is not a god he is just a man and he will make mistakes and he will get nailed on those mistakes but lets just hope they won't be mistakes that can't be fixed.What he needs to do now is get off his high horse and get to work for the people. Not for blacks or Hispanics but for the people no color group, no religious group, not for the special interest groups not for other countries but for the everyday American people. if he fails in this he will fail as president.its a wait and see thing. he speaks good but what counts is what he gets done for the people and what he doesn't get done.There shouldn't be no free ride for any one we all have to work. the first thing is to get people back to work. if that means illegal workers get kicked out so Americans and get back to work then he needs to do that without worrying about what the illegals will say. American people need jobs also.this will be one of his biggest task. He will either kiss their butts or he will help the American people and then help the illegals work something out but if its the other way he did America wrong and the people should fire him.He has a big job ahead lets just hope he does the right things.

You all can rant and rave about Obama as much as you like: he is going to be president for at least the next four years and his approval rating -- even before taking the oath of office -- is 79%! Some folks out there apparently like him. So I would suggest you find a nice, warm, snug corner, away from the boogeyman, and sulk for the next 48 months.

The trouble with two way communication is that it is two way, and therefore the thinking is two way also. Obama will quickly find if he does not know already that the Internet aware left is well to the left of Obama himself, and will not fall in line like the Ditto's on the Right.Already there have been many disappointing appointments and people who should have been appointed and were not, even though they were at the forefront of the issue.
It is way too early to not give Obama a chance to actually have results, but if the usual Gang Of Pirates are not brought to heel, or any of Bush's destruction of the Constitution is left enough intact that another "Bush" could become worse then all that organizing will backfire badly. If on the other hand his plans are place holders to be driven by activism to real honest change where the hogs that have horned into so many through are removed, expect that neither Republicans or Democrats will resemble the current parties.

SCARY is an understatement. Cleopatra lived on De-Nile and so do many Americans. Does anyone else see that President-elect Obama projects inappropriate responses to the most pressing of issues? The gravity of Hot Rods situation is gruesome. Is this the Nightmare before Christmas?
BO is dominating and as long as everyone in DC is fat and happy, who gives a rats behind about everyone else? Money is great but selling your soul to the devil for the Presidency and the White House gives me the willies. What would be next for BO? Disney World and the Haunted Mansion?
Shadows of Hitler appear in my minds eye! Holy Toldeo BATMAN!
Ghosts of Mengele's Auschwitz abound with Oprah's book project A New Earth =A New World Order!
Fester: AKA Uncle George Soros, Why Uncle George would you do such a thing? Your money could have helped so many.
Boogie men look under there beds for Donna Oswald, my guess is that many tonight are looking under their beds for me. BO!
Skeletons in your closets and demons in your mind.
They're creepy and they're kooky,
Mysterious and spooky,
They're all together ooky,
The Obama Family.
Their house is a museum
Where people come to see 'em
They really are a scream
The Obama Family.
Or the MC Hammer version
[You rang?]
(Chorus:)
They do what they wanna do, say what they wanna say
Live how they wanna live, play how they wanna play
Dance how they wanna dance, kick and they slap a friend
[The Addams Family]
Now I was cold coolin', you know [maxin' and relaxin']
Just kickin' it around the house [Oaktown kickin' it]
When a knock, a knock, a knock and a voice yo!
Can Hammer come out? [what's up?]
Now I don't mind [mind] being a friend
And showin' a little bit of flava [flava]
But Wednesday, Pugsley, Gomez, Fester [oh man]
Man, them some strange neighbours
(chorus)
I remember the day I needed to borrow
A little bit of pepper [for my chicken]
The next thing you know, comin' at me
Was a hand with the fingers high steppin' [I'm witcha]
Now I tried to play it along [you know]
And act like I was havin' a ball [ha ha]
But what do I see [yo] a perm with feet [Cousin It]
Standin' about three feet tall [I'm outta here]
(chorus)
Speakin' and thinkin' about the Addams
You know the Hammer is with it [I'm with it]
Act a fool, no bones, Swooop, Goofy and Randy
You know we kick it [the posse]
Now is the time to get in your mind
It's OK to be yourself [be yourself]
Take foolish pride and put it aside
Like the Addams, yo! they def [that's a family!]
(chorus)
[Addams] Too legit
[Addams] Too legit
[Addams] Too legit [Who's too legit?]
[The Addams Family]
[You know what I'm sayin', the Addams]
[Addams] Too legit [oh yeah]
[Addams] Too legit [talkin' 'bout the Addams now]
[Addams] Too legit [I'm saying it's the Addams now]
[The Addams Family]
[Yo! take me to the bridge]
[Thank you Fester]
Oh yeah, yeah
Oh, this is the Addams groove right here, ha ha
