from the ny times this afternoon, obama on the earmark question. it's basically the same argument that i cited above.
this bit of reality will no doubt have no effect on the right.
I don't have a problem with imperfection or failing to meet high standards. I have a problem with the pretense or the "snake oil" sales pitch he made when he ran. I knew many of his promises were b.s., but he wanted us to believe his rhetoric about "change" and a new day, or whatever he was saying to get into the national panties. Admit it, you got talked into sex with a smooth talker and now it is the morning after.

How do you know I don't create the talking points? Ever notice that many of the points made by talking heads are made here first?
