O.K., maybe I'm being too hasty in prejudging what Obama's intentions are once in office.
Bush promised all sorts of things before taking office in 2001.
He would be a uniter, he would respect the sovereignty of other nations/no preemptive war crap, no nation building, and the rest of sewage spilt forth.
Now we have some high-minded promises, proposals and pragmatisms spewing forth peculiar to what Obama campaigned on. Will the new Admin deliver what seems endemic to all politicians--
promise high, equivocate and surprise the electorate, but be the President your king-makers selected you to be?
I'm for change, too, but change I can rely on. (says Y. Berra) not.
