Real change from Obama
 

Just read this. He admitted he screwed up by nominating Daschle and is taking full responsibility for it.

That is a real change from Bush. In 8 years I don't remember him ever admitting he made a mistake.

Oh please. When will the Obamagasms be over. He gets cudos for admitting he fucked the pooch? Obama said he still had full confidence in Daschle when the tax issues first came out. He is only now admitting mistakes because some of these nominations are ridiculous.

He should have pulled the plug on Tim Geithner instead of letting him get confirmed. That would have been real change. The only change you'll be getting in the next 4 years are the pennies jingling around in your pocket.

and mccain would of done better?

What does McCain have to do with this thread? LOL

You'll be hearing those words alot over the next 4 years.

It's a real damn change from Bush. Imagine that... a politician taking some personal responsibility.

united states is striking Iran in 8 years.

There has never been a United States President that wasn't criticized and there never will be.

It's not an Obamagasm (although that word is funny as hell), but after a president who would never admit he did anything wrong, even on his way out the door with historic low approval ratings, seeing a president say they made a mistake and are taking responsibility for it is kind of refreshing.

I said nothing about whether he is going to be a good president or not, just that this was a change from the past. Relax a little.

At least he's not going to keep this US nation headed in the same path. he just started give him the same chance as you gave bush 8 years and then you can talk shit if nothing changes

I had a fucked up Bushogasm for 8 years that left everyone with empty pockets this obamagasm is kinda refreshing at least I already have some change building up in the first month jingling in my pockets

Obamageddon!

Point taken, Kane.

Just poured myself a glass of red.

Sounds good, pass the bottle please :)

I could use some wine also. Only have a shot of rum left to lull me off to sleep.

Well, I guess admitting to being a tool is a slight change from the usual.

I watched Lisa Lampanelli's HBO special tonight, and she had a funny line:

"Just what we need, another black man asking us for change"...

change is good for everybody..

Just you wait for the real Obama change. It will be terrible.

How is admitting to a mistake admitting to being a tool?

Obamagasm :1orglaugh

and if any of you have read the Clinton's books, you will understand what is going on already. The Republitards are evil like that.

Refreshing to have someone fuck up out the gate and admit it?

Let me Sum this up for you. Obama is a Politician. he will do what is best for him.

NYTimes quote of the day today:
Wait... prominent people don't have to pay taxes? :clown

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Unbelievable.

Off topic, anyone see Frost/Nixon? He was WAY before my time and I don't know much about him. But though he fucked up with the whole Watergate deal, he seemed to be extremely intelligent , a kick ass negotiator and major hard-ass. Anyone read his book? I'm thinking of ordering it.

In one month from now everyone's forgotten about Obama already.

Good distractions from his illegal bombing and killing of innocent civilians in Pakistan.

2 Huge wins for hope and change today. Child health care and exec pay for bailed out companies. :)

i agree for the most part, Geitner should not have been allowed to be in the administration after the tax "evasion" was unveiled..
i do think it is commendable for Obama to realize he made a mistake and own up to it, takes a person with a spine to do so..
however i am concerned that the stimulus package obama has put forth is off course, too much "special interest" allocations.. little disappointed that it is not as much into the infrastructure and green energy as he had preached during the election.

who gives a flying fuck!

That's just funny as hell..

uhmmm.. it's a change from American politicians from the past 100 years

Obama will change? his socks. Twice a day:)

Which book? He wrote seven or eight. I read "The Real War" and was impressed by his grasp of foreign affairs.

Thia makes sense. LBJ was a master of domestic policy and screwed up in Vietnam. Nixon was a master of foreign policy (he opened up China for gawd's sake) and screwed up on domestic policy, topped off with Watergate, which was a catchall term for what is now the second-worst systematic abuse of presidential power in U.S. history.

Thanks for the info Tod. I was wondering about his 1000 pager they mentioned at the end of the movie "The Memoirs of Richard Nixon".

Not so much the fuck up, but the admitting to it. Every president fucks up. You can't have a job like that and not make mistakes. Most don't admit it. I liked that he took the blame and said he will take steps to make sure it doesn't happen again. I guess now we will see if he really will or not.

Doesn't matter if there's Obama or whoever President. Politics is just some wierd dance of politicians in front of common people. And in US president doesn't run country, he's just TOP DANCER. :)

That is a real change from any politician.
