The promises Obama wants you to keep forgetting - War Room - Salon.com

Most of this is petty stuff -- which tells you more about the far-left as represented by Salon than it tells you about Obama. But the fact that they're picking on the petty stuff.... Alarming if you're an Obamaphile.

How so?
One of the main cheerleaders in 2008 now is picking nits. Did you bother reading the article?

I like my press to be at least editorially contrarian. The right wing lovefest with the Bush administration was pretty alarming.

Faults need to be pointed out..and constantly. That's why we have a freaking press in the first place.

The pettiness of some of the "broken promises" pointed out in the article isn't what one expects to see.
 
It's a blog? No, it's an online magazine published with new daily material since 1995.

The War Room is Salon's blog section.
Actually, it's under their "News" section.

Holy shit man...

So, it's in the war room. And what is the war room? let's see:

What does "one" expect instead?
 
I guess there is supposed to be a point to this thread.

NEWSFLASH: Many on the left are disappointed with Obama's performance and will say so.

Stupid.
