More political thoughts

So, I'm catching up on my weekend watching, and I'm seeing people say that Obama has broken his word on campaign finance and that he had promised to "be a game changer" and failed to do it.  Yet, what Obama has done, is to opt out of campaign finance.  The nay-sayers are saying he's broken his word and that he's playing politics as usual.  I partially agree with this, but the concept behind Obama's campaign is frankly better suited by what he's done, in that 1) he's all about millions of small voters... that is TRUE public financing.  2) Who was the last presidential nominee to turn down public financing?  according to the intro to MtP, no one.  That IS a game change frankly.  3) if you need examples of what it means to be a game changer...  MoveOn.org has shut down their 527 group.  A radical political group admiting that Obama is right and shutting it down.  Lets see the swift boat vets "for lies" (sorry, they say truth... very orwelian) and those orgs shut down becuase of McSame's strong stand of "I'm not going to referee them". 

 

I HATE the vote that Obama is making on the horrible FISA law.  I will be writing his campaign (of who I am a contributor) and I urdge others to do the same.
