‘I’m Maureen Dowd, and I’ve Been Had’ (Suporters of Obama disappointed)

They may need a support group before the month is out. They could gather in New York or Washington where many victims reside. The meetings would start: “I’m Maureen [or David]. I’m a duped Barack voter. And I’m mad.”

The ranks indeed are filling with the disaffected and the disappointed — Chris Buckley, Maureen Dowd, David Brooks, David Gergen, and even that gynecological sleuth and blogger Andrew Sullivan. And then there is the very angry Marty Peretz. Their complaints are varied but expressed with equal amounts of remorse and bitterness. They all have been done wrong by Barack.

It’s amazing the response one has when they get that quarterly 401K statement!

[lakertaker]

Buyers remorse repressed, perhaps??

The HNIC is not just about liberal politics. Its part rifling the Treasury and mostly to pay all is whities back by wrecking our hopes, dreams and savings, damn the cost. We be owin it to em.

glad somebody knows the rules...and keeps them.

[frogjerk]

CHANGE, It’s all you’ll have left in your 401K when Obamaloon is through.

[bmwcyle]

At least you know the rules.

When so many so-called conservative journalists completely ignored the numerous warning signs about Obama, should the ever be taken seriously again?

The only answer is no!

No These people all committed journalistic malpractice of the highest order. No one in their right mind would take the advice of a physician who made a call this bad, who neglected so many warning signs, and who glossed over so much inexperience and ineptitude on the part of Obama. We should permanently put these so called spokespeople for the conservative cause out of business.

Their life-savings are disappearing, their newspapers are tanking and probably their pensions along with them, the tingles in their legs have recently been diagnosed as arthritis.......and they're beginning to realize that their Messiah would fall off a white horse if he could even get on one.

It has to suck to be a liberal journalist right now.

Ah, schadenfreude is a wunderbar thing.

When it falls to me to uphold rules around here, you know this thread is in trouble.

Symptomatic of how screwed up this country is right now because of Obami.

[Halls]

Sure, why not!

[Maine Mariner]

Does this mean that if the election were held today they would vote for McCain? No I don’t think they would.

[texas_mrs]

All the things the right said about him and were blasted for doing so now are coming to pass. And still they are shocked.

[TADSLOS]

Another 30 days of Obama in action before we see this regret bouquet blossom, I think.

These over-paid Liberals ought to be thrilled to hand over more of their incomes for the common good. I hope every one of them has to give till it really hurts as BO “spreads the wealth.”
And they haven’t even commented on BO trying to make secret deals with Russia, while talking about “transparency” every day for two years. Liberals apparently aren’t worried about government secrets unless there is a Republican in office.

I had to go though 39 posts to find the picture you guys disappoint me

[Army Air Corps]

What rule is that?

Peggy Noonan is the worst of the worst. She not only fell in love with this creepy Marxist, she became his political whore, actively attacking the the only true conservative in the race.

[lakertaker]

I invited a co-worker to look up “Black Liberation Theology” before the election and I was dismissed by her as being a party pooper.

Now she complains about her diminished 401k and her inability to retire

We also have to adjust our views to reality. The notion that financial markets are self-regulating is a failure. We have to realize there is a role for government in regulating Wall Street, banks and derivatives.

Have you really swallowed the idea that these business sectors have somehow been "de-regulated"? LOL
