The incoming President, Barack Obama, has been making noises that his vast promises of economic intervention may not be as
grand as he promised. While I can sympathize that new circumstances may force a change in course, the President should have or did know better. He knew that the economy was slowing down when he made his grandiose speeches and promises. Instead, now he has to backtrack and at least appear to be reneging on his own words.
“I want to be realistic here, not everything that we talked about during the campaign are we going to be able to do on the pace we had hoped,” Obama said in an interview on ABC’s “This Week” program broadcast this morning. “Everybody’s going to have to give.”
No offense, but considering how lily-white Obama's morality was portrayed, then he should know better than to promise what he won't deliver. Instead, he wanted to get elected and told the American people what they wanted to hear. John McCain was chastised for saying that the economy was in tough times and certain measures would not work. And now the golden President-to-be has already broken promises, before even becoming President.
Not to mention that his foreign policy may
mirror Bush's. Which Barack Obama did you vote for?
