Re: Where is the leadership in this country?

Dude I don't believe a word Obama says. His pre-election statements will not mean diddly once he is in office. By the way I feel the same about McCain. Neither of them will do squat to "fix" anything.

The fallacy with that argument is that everyone assumes that once whoever becomes president; has magical powers to do anything they want. On the contrary, the congress and senate is where the action takes place. The President has evolved into the complaints department in this country. So that's basically why everyone like to blame/complain to the President about anything and everything.

So at least it's better to have someone in a position to try than someone in position who just doesn't care or know anything about technology *cough Bush*

I don't disagree at all about congress. The Republic Congress was a joke that turned its back on its principles and the Democrat one is no different.

A President leads. He doesn't make law but leads. Bush did some of that but many would argue poorly. I think McCain would do some of that too but I am uncomfortable how. I don't believe Obama will lead squat. He doesn't take a stand unless it is wildly popular. I don't see him leading at all.

Then again look at the choices. What a crappy year.

Broadband deployment is much more widespread now than it was in 2001.

If anyone wants some indirect proof of that try going dial-up for a couple days. All these new AJAX like technologies that most websites use suck over dial up.

Like Obama tried when he was in Congress...you know all those times he tried by voting "present".
