That's a nice post, and I like that kind of debate and discussio

To be honest, I don't like Obama, and even very worried about him. Call me paranoid to all big talkers. But his disingenuous ways to claim credit or point fingers are the worst can happen in a working environment, not to mention in a leader. The current political environment lacks accountability. Obama is anything but.

He had a speech opposing the Iraq war in IL legislate, and he wasn't even eligible to vote in Senate. Given the circumstances, and the intel provided by the administration, except for Kucinicci (sp?) they all voted for it. Obama went on and on, how he was right on day one. Except he didn't have the right to vote at time, except after he entered Senate, he voted EXACTLY the same as Clinton, at EVERY SINGLE Iraq related voting.

He went on and on to criticize Clinton's vote on Iran. But he didn't even show up in the voting. As a junior senate, he already missed 33 out of 99 total senate votings.

Let me give you a simple analogy. If A and B both work for me, and they are both scheduled on-call for some production matter. A was there, responded to the issue, tried but made a mistake. B was nowhere to be found. Second day, B came to me, told me how he would be right, and how bad A was and how wrong A was, therefore, he should be given the promotion. You know what? I would fire B on the spot.

Empty promises are nothing new for politicians. But, when someone gives you grand promises even daring to change human nature, while everything he did/does was anything but, that's enough of a warning sign for me.

Obama did run a very successful campaign. He played the race card in a very subtle and sophisticated way, the liberal media is in fully swing on his side. The question is, will FOX and other conservative media outlets give him such a free pass? You don't see much mentioning about how his wife got paid 300k for a part time in some non-profit organization. You don't read it from CNN that his investment deals with his passed legislations. You don't see much about those real estate deals. Let me put it this way, a fast raising political star has his own baggage. it's going to be ugly, very ugly, if he does win the nomination.
