I however, no longer believe I'll live long enough to see it happen.Intense Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08441598926026727682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12171673.post-24641072969311759602011-03-21T20:57:53.615-04:002011-03-21T20:57:53.615-04:00He didn't use it for fear of losing the 1% of ...He didn't use it for fear of losing the 1% of the Republicans who voted for him in the election. He was trying to be bipartisan and he let the Republicans be the party of no without putting his foot down. It isn't that he made things worse he just didn't do anything to make them better. I too feel betrayed by him, I supported him and he has just let the Republicans get whatever they wanted.The Kitchen Witchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11776297475252154278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12171673.post-5818093144698538172011-03-20T19:15:07.278-04:002011-03-20T19:15:07.278-04:00I campaigned for Hillary in the primaries.

Now, I am not even sure he rates my respect. I cry (sometimes in rage, sometimes in pain) for my country.Lavanahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14295089071497942411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12171673.post-7021556488694676212011-03-20T15:56:04.976-04:002011-03-20T15:56:04.976-04:00where is the man I voted for? it's not the man...where is the man I voted for? it's not the man I got..yellowdoggrannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14906624317290990109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12171673.post-43460402966257270312011-03-20T05:43:32.463-04:002011-03-20T05:43:32.463-04:00It's so funny to think that the day he won the...It's so funny to think that the day he won the election I actually feared for his safety. Yes, he's had more threats on his life than any other president in history. But I should have been more fearful for us.<br /><br />I think you forgot one - New Orleans and her victims still living in FEMA trailers. *sigh*Pomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12294207351440999597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12171673.post-32135579831882460352011-03-19T23:09:43.143-04:002011-03-19T23:09:43.143-04:00Sadly, I agree.
