    and where did is say we can attack him for not turning it around already, it will take time, but we can get pissed about who he put in positions, they are not the most qualified, again, look at treasury...
    and i have read ur posts, we have never been alike, and never will be...
    admit acorn is a racially motivated group that got a ton of pork money for helpinging obama get elected, if not please explain why they continue getting federal money and why its right...
    !st do you honestly believe that no package would pass without pork? It hasn't been done before and it will be a task for it to happen in the future. Obama claimed he would try to stamp out pork, and it cannot be expected that he could do it in his 1st couple months. Washington is still Washington and it'll take more than the election of a young, charismatic politician to change their ways. Second, the ACORN argument continues to be weak. Obama recieved more white vote than any Democratic candidate in history, he also received more middle class suport and young support as well. Do you think that those poor minorities that ACORN benefits would have voted for McCain, or any other republican?

    But that's besides the point. Check what ACORN "could" be eligible for under that package. It can be argued that it's not necessarily pork. Republicans are up in arms about ACORN simply because they have a tradition of supporting Democratic candidates, nothing more. If it was money for Focus on the Family or the Heritage Foundation (both of which recieved money during the Bush administration), they would not have an issue.

    did obama say that pork would stop as he became president? yes he did.
    did he have to sign the stimulus? yes he did...
    say when ur guy is wrong, he messed up and u people that will always defend him, u loose credit..
    did he say he would put best people possible in position? yes he did, and 3 have had tax problems, one stepped down, and the guy running the treasury will be obama downfall..
    and acorn, well they had there main office raided by FBI and found thousands of voters fraud, have also been linked to bill ayers who is a terrorist. its not republican bs, it is fact..
    next u will say that raciest dirtbag rev. wright was just misunderstood......

    ^^^I never said it was republican bs, I said it was republican rhetoric. There is a difference. Obama did say he would stop pork, but if you think he would be able to do so in his first year, then you haven't a clue about how politics works.

    As far as the comment about Rev. Wright, I'm not going to stoop as low as you and attempt to let this deteriorate into a race thread. It doesn't apply to this thread and I fail to see why you even had to go there.

    Vague? I think everything I posted was backed with concrete proof (ie the news report I posted), but if you consider that vague, so be it. Enjoy the next 8yrs dude!!!
