Mike, evidence is mounting that Obama is the most "owned" President by special interests ever. With the possible exception of U.S. Grant. He surrounds himself with radicals and does everything he can think of to prop up the unions and grant favors to his supporting organizations. That's not an opinion,Mike, it's a fact. If GWB had done half of the nefarious under the table crap Obama is pulling the media would have had orgasms and would be screaming bloody murder. But Obama gets a pass and the willfully blind like you don't bother to look into it critically.

>>He has given millions of people a reason to give a damn again.

>>Yes he has, but not for the reasons you believe. Thousands of people who were never involved in politics and who have never been involved in political demonstrations are getting involved and making their feeling known. That is because this admistration has shredded the Constitution and spat upon the principles of the founding fathers. Just witness the tens of thousands of people who marched on Washington on 9/12.

>I don't know what alternative reality you are living in. Shredding the Constituion? The previous administration had a shredder right in the oval office, Dick Cheney and his minions churning it energetically.
