Re: How Is Anyone Surprised? said by KrK:I'm somewhat surprised... It shouldn't surprise you at all, it all makes sense when you realize that Obama isn't as smart or clever as you all thought he was (which accounts for the teleprompters, his meandering speech when off message, the audience plants and the fact that the Democratic party really didn't want him to run)and that he is nothing but a pretty shell that does what the core of the party tells him to. America stupidly voted for hope and change and what they got is an America without a separation of power between executive and legislative branches.

| I think personally Obama's a fairly smart guy. I just don't know what kind of constraints and/or "requirements" he's subject to.

I'm quite sure most of this speech is from a pissed off demographic, all right. The same people who will vote Republican next time and then will be silent for years---- like all these "Tea Party" folks. Um where have they been for the last 8 years? Giving their support to their party, of course.... until they lost. Now they're mad as hell. To hear 'em talk you'd think the USA was fine and perfect a few months ago but has completely been destroyed ever since Obama took office.

Erie, PA | The tea party people have been around for a while in various forms. The reason you haven't heard much coverage of them is that the solution to the tax problem makes almost no one happy and thus isn't news friendly. What has changed is the massive upward shift in debt/GDP ratio which has made many of these people significantly louder.
I was going to go to the one in Erie, but I'm not entirely comfortable with the fact that it's been organized by the local republican party, which I don't think is entirely appropriate.
There are, as with any movement, a lot of hangers on that do just as you say, but that's with any movement. I think you'd be surprised to find just how many Obama supporters lost interest on Nov. 3rd and now really have no clue whats going on beyond the Obamessiah poster they hung in the window back in September.

Aw cmon, give the poor guy in the white house a chance. After all, the germans certainly gave that poor art-school reject a chance..what was his name again? I think he was from Austria.. |
