I'm sorry that I'm not remotely intelligent. Maybe if I just said everything that has content was a mindless rant and not remotely intelligent I'd be a brighter person. That doesn't answer the question of whether Obama is supposed to do more than set an example as President of the USA or calm my questions about his morally objectionable actions (which people who are good examples tend not to have loads of), but I guess I just don't operate on this elite level that you do.
No, I was asked what obama would do for me that I couldn't do for myself. Which is nothing. But what he's accomplished so far is symbolic and inspirational to anyone who thought that their are barriers holding them back from what they would like to accomplish. Obama nor any other president can do anything. The power belongs to the people. We elect who goes into congress, whom our judges are, our district attorneys, our mayors. This is also why you can't really blame bush for anything he's done. This is the work of the people who put him in office and the people we voted in congress that supported him.
And I didn't say you weren't intelligent, I'm saying that post wasn't =p
It was full of allegations without support, just media propaganda. Although I suppose I see your point a bit more clearly now. In any case, I don't really care much for anything that Obama says he will do. He doesn't have the power to change anything. He may be the president, but everyone knows that he only assumes the blame for anything that goes wrong or right. There are a lot more fingers pulling the strings of the bills that get passed.
It's the same with IC, Stefan is held responsible for all that is wrong with the game but in reality its the poor community that makes this game suck. Nobody can get along in the forums, people cheat every chance they get, people talk s*** to their teammates ingame and force them to go inactive, past moderators have done the same....
And somehow it's stefan's fault why nobody wants to play =p
Sex without the e is still SX!
