The change Obama was talking about is the bus fare he's going to give us all when out of control inflation hits.
matthew adams: turn off the damned capslock key.... as for Hilary not having any "African Americans" on her payroll, are you suggesting she should hire people based on their skin color and not their qualifications?

THE HILLARY PICK FOR SECRETARY OF STATE WAS A BAD CHOICE! SHE WILL HAVE HER OWN AGENDA! HE SHOULD HAVE PICKED BILL RICHARDSON. HE WILL HAVE TO GET RID OF HER IN 4 YEARS OR LESS! SHE NEED TO FOLLOW OUR PRESIDENT OBAMA AGENDA TO GET TO TROOPS OUT OF IRAQ. SHE ALSO HAS NO AFRICAN AMERICANS ON HER PAYROL.

Just saying the word CHANGE means nothing. Change can be good or bad. Obama never specifies what he really means, he has no clue. The way he stutters without a teleprompter, he can read speeches well, but he's not a decision maker, he's no leader. And his picks so far have shown he is not a change-agent at all. Associating yourself with a guy who sends a former business partner a rotten fish and holds the Republican party in contempt, is not good-Rahm Emanuel is a bad guy-he doesn't make friends, he makes enemies. I was never impressed with Obama, I can see through all the fluff. He's not my president, nor will he ever be. This country deserves better-it's sad over 300M people here and the best we could come up with was McCain and Obama. Sad, really sad.

<i>Didn't these same people respond to the alligation that Obama lacked epxerience, by saying it is ALL about who you surround yourself with? </i>
The response was that he surrounds himself with experienced people, which is exactly what he's doing.
<i> he is promoting the classic, same old, liberal left aganda.
Yup, change we can believe in!</i>
Indeed that's change from the disaster of the last eight years. It's also change from the years of Clinton triangulation. Label it however you want, but it's the change people voted for and the change we need.

Nice propaganda piece, Bob. Totally disingenuous and non-pertinent.
Your implication is that the only possible people with Washington experience available to Obama are former Clintonistas, which is specious on its face.
But you keep putting up these strawmen, Bob. I imagine it is what you get paid to do.

The change is the President himself? Almost funny!
Didn't these same people respond to the alligation that Obama lacked epxerience, by saying it is ALL about who you surround yourself with?
So he is surrounding himself with partisan, long time Washington insiders! And he is promoting the classic, same old, liberal left aganda.
Yup, change we can believe in!
