I've never gotten a government check in my life, except for Bush's stimulus.
Nice stereotyping though.
You act like the only way to be dependent on government is to get a check from them.
Doesnt change your idealogy.

My ideology is a president that will ask the question, "Will this work?"
And in my idealogy the President will ask a number of things: Is this right? Will the country be better off if it happens? Do I actually have the authority to do this? Can we pay for this? Will the benefit of the program be worth the cost? What are the unintended consequences? etc etc.
The real irony about your "idealogy" is that you are fully supporting programs that will not and cannot work.
Even if I was Obama, I think I'd be sick of hearing about myself by now.
Anyone else sick of the Obama Fest? I didn't vote for the guy but I wish him the best of luck and he now has my support. I'm sick of the almost God like status the media is giving him. I never remember another President getting this type of MTV and E! like coverage.

A couple of points, and let me preface this by saying that although I didn't vote for Obama, I hope he does a great job. First off, many people such as yourself are certain Obama will be so much better than Bush. Yet there is no guarantee of this. He could prove to be this country's worst nightmare.
History judges people (Presidents) based on many things. Events that take place long after a President is out of office can shape their legacy. Let me give you a very possible scenario. Let's say in Obama eases up on national security issues for varying reasons. Then say in his third or fourth year in office, the US is hit by a terrorist attack much worse than 9/11. George Bush then becomes a man of great foresight and a great President; Obama becomes our worst nightmare.
Mind you, I don't hope for this or want this, but this is something to be aware of. GW kept this country safe after 9/11. Yes, it was at a great cost, but we are most likely going to do a complete 180 on many of Bush's national security policies. Only time will tell if this is a safe course of action or not.
POINT well taken....I know that ALL of the republicans that voted for President Bush in 2000 were CERTAIN that he would do a fantastic job and a much better President than Clinton.
Buyer Beware....if the deal's too good to be true, then it probably isn't true!
is how I stand....
(I still deep inside think and hope he will do a better job than president bush but we will only know once he takes the position of President, what he will accomplish as a President.)
care
I see it like this; The media is giving him so many prop-ups and it's going to backfire on their guy. It can only go down hill from an already inflated reputation.
I only wish I can see some of those voters faces a few years from now when their pay checks are smaller and they thought that they would have more money. My guess is that Halo will be around his wrist in their eyes. No wait, I take that back, for they no not what they do. Just words! Sheep!

While so many ponder there are a million people plus in Washington standing in the cold just to be a part of this. This isn't about Obama, it is about America and a change in direction of the past 30 years. It is about hope and change, two overused words. The challenge is not Obama's it is everyone's.

Yes, and it has been for quite some time. Where the hell have you been?
Do you know when America took the big turn for the worse?
Do you know who initiated the fucking of the American Middle Class?
It was your god, Reagan.
