Obama's promises won't mean much in the upcoming elections. That worked four years ago but not now. Voters will judge Obama on his performance. That is why he stands a good chance of losing the next election.

I'll never get back the fifteen seconds of my life that was utterly wasted on this absurd take on a three-peat lame politico stump speech. The ignorance and blind alliance of the left never ceases to amaze.

Government to cure all our evils . . . "hard-headed policy cures for what ails the American economy, all in the name of fairness."
Let's talk about that "fairness" . . . Seems to me that of the three automakers, Ford was the only one who did not take the taxpayer funded bailout. Where is the fairness to Ford who, like the others, competed in the global market ecomony and had to silently watch as it's competitors received a major subsidy courtesy of Bush/Obama. Does that not cheapen Ford's efforts?
How is it "fair" to reward those who frittered and wasted their opportunities by taking from those who worked hard, studied, sacrificed, and maximized thie r opportunities?

all that would have made it more accurate for his beliefs would have been to include "from each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs", right Jamie?
