Wrong again, okie. We are not emotionally joined at the hip. We don't all agree with each other or each other's methods. We spend a lot of time arguing about it. I bet there hasn't been a day in the last two years that I haven't had over 300 emails in my New Mail box, most of it duplicates or endless debates, much like this A2K message board. Some days I delete it all without reading any of it because I get sick of all the bickering; other days I skim through the subject lines and read what catches my attention and add my two cents worth. Just like we do on this message board.
The fact that you keep coming back to A2K to do the exact same thing tells me that you aren't the loner you pretend to be. Face it okie, you are a groupee!
Back again, sorry for the delay, butrfly. I guess I believe you, but I am beginning to think Obama's online organization is more than I would have ever imagined, and I am not so sure I like it. Sure, I believe in citizens being interested in politics, and writing a letter to your congressman is great, but I am not so sure I like the looks of this Change.gov thing, with a "Technology Officer," which appears to me to be a new way to tamper with the normal interaction between the executive branch and the legislative branch. This appears to be sort of a new tool of the executive branch to browbeat the congress with hordes of people out here sending them emails, etc. I'm not real sure yet what I think, as some of this is in a state of flux, but I am skeptical to say the least, butrfly.
A campaign is fine, but to continue this browbeating of rightfully elected representatives of a representative republic, 24/7 in an organized way, I will have to watch this one closely. It strikes me that Obama wants all of his little minions to keep playing the game, titled change.gov, and I am not sure what his end game really is for all of this so-called change, okay. I think other groups have freedom of speech, but as an arm of the president, uh, I need to think about that some more, and look at the ramifications of it. Here again, I do not trust this kind of hidden agenda, wherein he has not explained any of this to us, that I know of.
I am sure you and all the in the tank for Obama people will all disagree and call me a nut, but I don't care, I think my concerns are very legitimate. After all, this is the same guy that has proposed a national security force, that is every bit as funded as the military. Bizarre I think, so I am going to be very skeptical of everything this man does, because I do not trust him, and my distrust is more than justified, it is essential. More justified than you people are for following an unknown man like a herd of mindless sheep.
By the way, I am no groupee for simply expressing my opinion here. I got started with doing it with Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, because that issue was one very close to my heart, and I liked being able to express an opinion.
By the way, I haven't found out yet, how many Obama volunteers are on this board, that you know of?
