“I am in this race to tell the corporate lobbyists in Washington that their days of setting the agenda are over.” The day after his Inauguration, he promised to “close the revolving door that lets lobbyists come into government freely.”

Oh and many have NOT forgotten the single payer Obama bullshit either.

Of course anyone who brings up the bullshit from Obama is a hater ...right? No I don't hate Obama ...I will never respect liars or people who make promises or say they will act of something ...and then turn right around and tell us or the "professional left" to STFU after they get elected. I consead that Obama is miles better than Rmoney or McInsane but wow I have never been so disappointed and felt like I was taken for a fool by any Dem candidate as much.
