HOPEFULNESS?

With the lousy weather we have had here, I was able to sit much of the day and view the coronation of king Obama. If I sound grinched, I am somewhat. I do not wish to let this blog become political, but here we have a man who promised the world to everybody. To the rich he promised prosperity, to the poor he promised to take from the rich and give it to them. [colloquially speaking] Lots of promises to each level of constituency.
Now prior to the inauguration he was already telling folks , well somethings won't be done. Full well knowing that it wouldn't be done anyway, in other words he spoke in error while on the campaign trail.
I have had a real problem with a overfawning press who basically slavered over this person. To the detriment of other candidates. Was I a McCain follower? no ; actually I had a real problem with the level of presidential timber on both the democrat and republican candidates. The closest I saw to true potential leadership for the republicans was Sarah Palin. [ and we all know the press will pretty much ruin her in the future]
Obama is our president . Not our savior. I hope the press doesn't lift him that high. And then we'll see just what he will do for the next 4 years.
