I didn’t want to pick up a dictionary, so sue me.
Yes O\’bama has betrayed his base, the American people, and has dissapointed so many others around the world.
I want to call attention to Whoppi Goldberg host of the View who when Bush was in office used to open every show keeping the viewer informed of all the policies of the Bush administration that she thought was contrary to America\’s best interest, this segment of the show was called, \”Hot Topic\’s\”.
Well since the O\’Bama election Whoppi has efectivly morphed the show away from \”Hot Topic\’s\” and more about celebrities so that she no longer has to comment on what is nothing other then a third term of George Bush.
she has to be purposly ignoring the fact that O\’Bama has went back on every promise he made to the American people, including health care with a mandate, prescription drugs, sunsetting the Patriot Act, he let AT&T off the hook when they were caught spying on the American people, ending both wars, closing Gitmo, having a transparent government, protecting whistle blowers change we can believe in, no government as usual, etc, etc, etc.
The hypocracy, (and this includes Whoopi, Barbara, Joy, and Sherry and their obvoius avoidence of so many failings that million\’s of American\’s are aware of show a bias born out of pregidous.
It is still a good saying “to drive out the Bush regime,” because ostensibly there is no difference between the Bush administration and the Obama administration – or any administration for that matter. This should inform you of something, that the only way to stop the onslaught on the people is a total dismantling of the system
