It's nice that we have a president that doesn't dig holes in the white house lawn anymore, but I refuse to replace one corrupt leader for another. I'm not upset, I'm fucking livid.

Thoughts?
I am no fan of the guy but actually was hoping he would root out Bush style corruption. However, I haven't see many results. In most cases it seems he's doing nothing to stop it and in other it seems he's actively taking steps continuing it.

Glad you brought this up.

It's nice that Olberman covered this considering how much dirt he reported on about Bush. I was hoping he would have things like this about Obama as well. Sometimes I get the feeling he wishes he could say more, but is hamstrung by corporate media. Same goes for Dobbs at times.
