Transparency, unkept promises, lies. Just one question, why? He could have actually kept his promises, been transparent, and told the truth.

And then, YOU could actually THINK about this. YOU could decide he's not what you thought he was, what he promised to be. And NOT vote for him.
And if you already decided NOT to vote for him, YOU could warn those who still are planning on voting for him.

I am still totally shocked over how little our news media did to vet Barack Obama when he ran for president the first time! The whole thing was a circus, where all anyone really heard was "hope and change" with no idea what sort of change he had and still has in mind!

And the continued cover up by memebers of Congress, you can fault the public for being ignorant and gullible, but Congress? And make no mistake, they know, and they're covering for him. Why?

You're probably right. Just shows the willful ignorance even more if it is so.

And in this campaign the lies and false promises continue. He has done more harm to the U.S. and to freedom in the U.S. than any other president in history. His voter base is people who want the government to provide for them.

Truthfully, as I see it; his base is looney tunes. Not only do they want the government IN their bedrooms & private lives, businesses, courtrooms, public forums, they want them in their HEADS telling them what to believe about everything.

Stealthy, so you agree with Romney when he says the 47% who will vote for Obama no matter what are dependent on government?
The only reason I ask, is you said this BEFORE the tape of Romney's meeting with his campaign donors was secretly taped and then released in an edited version to try and make him look bad.
I'm seeing the same thing you are, most of America does feel the government is there to take care of them, to provide for them, and to solve all their problems.
I was rereading discussions to give best responses, and was surprised you had made this observation long before it became a media topic. Good for you!

With transparency comes accountability. If we haven't learned anything in the past four years, we should have learned that accountability is NOT in the platform. To expect anything along those lines with this administration is setting your self up for disappointment.
Don't you know Debra, it is not what he does but what he says. And do as he says and not as he does.
His ideas sure sounded good. I would like transparency from the people working from me. I understand that some things have to stay under wraps, like the location of the vice president, the military plans, oops those things can be mentioned but definitely not anything about the laws and taxes that we will have to live by.

Here is a little tidbit of info -
Obama spent 412 hours in economic meetings and 600 hours on the golf course!
The GAO found that he only attended his daily briefings 536 times or 43.8% of the time.

Yes, that was a hot topic on twitter last night. But, hey...the Dems can explain it all away and feel he's great at his job. Our embassies were attacked in Egypt and Lybia too, not much concern about that act of WAR from our fearless leader. He even gave a talk to a group of Arabs yesterday, assuring them he was all for them getting their assets that were seized on 9/11, back.

You said 'accountability'. And THAT is exactly what is needed, instead we have nothing but blame.
and let's not forget his GOLF game.
I read today that on this the 11th anniversary of 9/11 Romney tweeted a tribute to the fallen.
Obama tweeted; don't forget the election is in eight weeks.
so sad.

Wouldn't that have led to a stronger America, or at least had us heading in that direction? I think the lack of transparency is what, for me, says a strong America is not what he wants.

The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.
I do believe you are correct.

Greedy politicians, what's even worse is that they can be a dictator.

Hello!
No I didn't. I guess most of them are. Your statement above is seriously not new to where I am. ;) So Yes, most of them are. They just want power & money.
