Rahm Emmanuel as chief of staff is not going to be looking to work with republicans. a meaner, more vindictive, partisan you will not find.

Yeah, I explained to the few I know that voted Obama, who are unemployed due to outsourcing jobs and had “hope” that Obama was going to make it all better, that the first guy Obama hired as his CHIEF OF STAFF is the inventor of NAFTA.

I have never seen a smiling face drop so fast.

"Rahm Emmanuel as chief of staff is not going to be looking to work with republicans. a meaner, more vindictive, partisan you will not find."

Exactly. The very first step of Obama the unifier and agent of change was to recycle one of the most bitterly partisan and borderline-criminal figures from the Clinton administration.

If this is a portent of how Obama will govern, it is actually good news for conservatives, because it means his arrogance will cause him to overstep his mandate and alienate a public which is not nearly as far to the left as he is.

As he should be. They won. Everytime I think of the suffering the people who founded this Nation went through and then having it turned over to a communist maraxist by a bunch of pimple faced punks I want to puke.
