Has Obama been purchased?
He's done absolutely nothing to slow outsourcing. He said he would prior to being elected, then after election he said of those jobs being outsourced, that "they're low paying and we don't want them anyway." It really looks like someone or something got to him. This about face from the leader offering change, to this rogue of stand-off-and-just-watch leader is growing ridiculous.

In the two short years he was in the US Senate, he became the 3rd largest recipient of money from the Fannies and other companies we had to bail out later on, so he sure knows how to line his pockets! What did anyone really expect, the man had no prior experience doing anything before he got elected, his only job outside of politics was as lawyer for a slum lord. He never managed a staff greater than five people, never pushed major legislation through congress. He is just a smooth talker that tells everyone what he thinks they want to hear.

Maybe not quite purchased, but certainly tainted. He played his cards well during the campaign, and as most who win elections, he doesn't follow through. Obama promised to reduce our military presence in the Middle East, and now is increasing it. His lack of experience is showing, and the recent elections have spoken loud and clear. Obama - time to make good on your promises.
BTW - jabreel... you are a moron. The question did not mention or refer to Bush. Thanks for reducing the collective intelligence of the democratic party.

What were you expecting? Nobody gets anywhere near being elected if they aren't going to go with the program... Obama deserves no special blame, he's just doing what all Presidents and other high elected officials do.
