So, this is Obama's change? All I see is more of the same old faces, or am I wrong?

It seems that the only change that Obama is bringing to Washington is the insider cronies of the Democrat party. These are the very same people that have been in power in the Congress for years. Where is the change, where will the new thinking come from. All we will get out of the people that he is putting in place are the same old ideas. I do believe that Mr. Obama lied to us with his Promise of change. The only change I see here is to the Communist party.

    I agree that it looks like business as usual for the democrats. I watched a bit of MSNBC this morning just to see what they were up to and the panel was discussing your point. They all had blank looks on their faces as they tried in vain to spin it in Obama's favor. It's ridiculous.

    A lot of these people are good hard working servants who have been stymied by the last administrations shenanigans. Given the correct leadership, they have the ability to do a good job, we need to give it a chance and I think you will see change come very quickly. I doubt if you understand what a communist is if you compare any part of our system to that word. You are living in the best country in the world, Enjoy and help in the "we" effort.

    Only we have the power to change Congress.... However, I guess Obama didn't get past the "think about it" stage when it comes to appointing people of opposing parties in his staff/administration.... I figured that he wouldn't be a bipartisan leader... that is why I voted for the candidate that PROVED that he could be a bipartisan leader and not one that just SAID he could be (even though his record proved otherwise).

    Unfortunately he's only the President-elect right now. He can't do anything while that other man is still in office. Besides, you make yourself look quite immature if you expect anything to happen overnight. Real progress takes years. Of course, if you still feel lied to and unsatisfied, you're free to exercise your right to leave: we won't miss you =D!

    He's not even the president yet. If you're seeing negative change or no change it is at the moment under Bush....not Obama.

    Why not hire people who knows about whats going on, they put the policy in effect, they are the ones to deal with it....If you so love your republicans, why aren't you trusting them now?, would you hire someone to build planes, and have no clue as to what they are doing... and then would you fly in it?come on...think about it...

    The Communist party cry is getting old, please get a new saying because you Cons are boring me.

    He hasn't done anything yet. There is no change until his inauguration in January.

    The guy hasn't even been sworn in yet. Give him at least 3 days in office before you start complaining.

    You're wrong. He's appointed one or two people so far. He's already announced a number of changes he will make policy wise, like reversing Bush executive orders.

    He's not even in the white house yet! Why are you ranting on him?

    For goodness sakes, it's been 8 days only.
