the President surrounded himself with advisers that would encourage, allow, and suggest the things that have led to this debacle.

Obama has selected Wall streeters, corporatists, DLCers, and in some cases, some of the exact same people that were in the Bush administration!!!!!!! Change? Hope? My GAWD..WTF has happened???

I am numb with shock and disappointment...and do not even hold out any hope that things will get any better int he next two years.
My sympathies go to the few really Liberal and Progressive Congressional members. They probably thought they would get some support form this President...and must feel as frustrated, alone and helpless as the rest of us.

The repukes are in charge....and so it will be...until who knows when.

We are screwn.
