@blueveinedthrobber,
I voted for him, but my "respect" for him drifted away with all the shenanigans he played with his talk, and the actions he took that contradicted his own words. What wrankled me were the adding of 30,000 troops in Afghanistan, and how he "saved" the banks and finance industry with billions without any regulations or control while he ignored the suffering of main street. His promise to close Gitmo wasn't high on my list, but he broke that promise. He bends too much to satisfy the conservatives, so we really don't know what Obama stands for. Does anyone?
