In Barack we trust?

Obama campaigned on his personality and judgment and won. Now, like it or not, he isn't beholden to anyone.

    Oh poor me!

    Doesn't anyone in this country get tired of whining? The man hasn't even taken office yet, and all anyone has done is complain.

    Poor me, he didn't pick exactly who I think (because I'm an expert) should be in his cabinet! Not enough change! A Clinton!? How could he do this to our country!!!!!!!!!!!

    Come on people. We all know that you would be angry if he would have picked some inexperienced guy or gal out of nowhere. Instead, we would hear--I told you he didn't know what he was doing. Our economy is tanking and he picks some inexperienced fool to run things! I should have known.............Oh, the horror!

    Like I have reminded people time and time again on this site and other far left sites, he isn't just the President-elect of liberals. He is going to be President of everyone in this country. And right now, with our economy in shambles, we need to start getting along and work together. Because like I said, we are in a recession which could quickly become a depression. And none of you will want to stand in a soup line next year at this time. I should know, I'll be doing it next week. Be thankful for what you have and give the man a little time to do his job.
