"Forget the pork. Forget the waste. Forget the 8,570 earmarks in a bill supported by a president who poses as the scourge of earmarks. Forget the "$2 trillion dollars in savings" that "we have already identified," $1.6 trillion of which President Obama's budget director later admits is the "savings" of not continuing the surge in Iraq until 2019...Obama's radically transformative economic plan, a rhetorical sleight of hand so smoothly offered that few noticed... "it is only by understanding how we arrived at this moment that we'll be able to lift ourselves out of this predicament," Obama has come to redeem us with his far-seeing program of universal, heavily nationalized health care; a cap-and-trade tax on energy; and a major federalization of education...the list of causes of the collapse of the financial system does not include the absence of universal health care, let alone of computerized medical records.

Looks like a quite a few believe we are headed in the wrong direction as well. But do you think Mr. Obama will listen to the ones who are truly supposed to run the country, "WE THE PEOPLE"? Very doubtful. Instead you can almost guarantee he will continue to push his ultra-radical agenda to the detriment of the nation.
