Ok, Obama isn't Pinochet. Thank God.

And we don't have people being disappeared. But torture seems to be a hard chapter to close. That concerns me.

Labor and manufacturing have been all but destroyed.

Those at the top of businesses and non-profits are gouging while the rest of us are underpaid, overworked, and living in terror of job loss day after day.

It is time to end bankster welfare and get on with the work we hired Obama ET AL to do.

Provide fairness and stability for Americans again. Ok, it's only been so many days. But the noise doesn't sound like progressive noise.

When I heard Obama refer to the economy as a diseased patient, my Naomi Klein lights started flashing wildly. Obama speaks Friedman and that makes my skin crawl.

Who can get into his ear and tell him we want him to go in the direction of the Third Way, social democracy, not disaster capitalism.

And, yes, I am so concerned I feel a similar grieving like I felt when my family all passed away within one year. Very heavy hearted. Anyone have some good news? Is Obama becoming less enamored of genius boy Summers? and the Bankster CEOs?

We aren't becoming like the Bushies here are we? I mean it is ok to question, right? or should I say left? We are open-minded progressives, right? left? center?
