Travellinguist's Musings

Free Press and one more.

Besides this I would like to point out that Obama is living down to the low expectations I set for him months ago, and yet sadly had we been stuck with McCain and Palin it is doubtless that our nightmare would be even worse than it is now. I don't know what's worse, hoping for change and being disappointed, as I am with Obama, or expecting incompetence and selfish evil which is what another Republican administration would have been. At least I would have known everything would have sucked. Then again, Republican supporters, or I shouldn't even call them that because it is a disservice to the true spirit of the Republican party which suffered a slow death since Reagan and was exterminated under Bush. Bush-Cheney-type supporters who have shown themselves to be deranged, racist lunatics over and over recently would have been fiddling as our country continued to burn, but now they can scapegoat Obama when of course the problem is not that he is bringing change but that he is playing from the Bush-Cheney playbook mostly, a fact that these ignorant twits cannot even bring themselves to see.
Health care is the obvious exception but he is doing what multiple politicians have done, bore us with details which we can nitpick to death rather than handling the details themselves and inspiring us with their goals.
