Local time where you're at. ("Where you're at"?)

“Change we can believe in”, huh?

Obama’s first major appointments have been Democrats who worked for President Clinton and did not endorse him in the primary: Transition chief John Podesta and Rep. Rahm Emanuel, who will be White House chief of staff, stayed neutral, and Ron Klain, who will be Joe Biden’s chief of staff, backed Biden. Obama, advisers told Politico, may even be weighing offering Hillary Rodham Clinton herself the Cabinet plum of Secretary of State.

“Obama is showing great good sense in making use of their experience,” said William Galston, a former Clinton domestic policy adviser who’s now at the Brookings Institution. “You have an entire cadre of people in their 30s and 40s and early 50s who were either in senior jobs or second- and third-tier jobs in the Clinton administration, who really earned their spurs and know their way around — and know something about how the institutions in which they served actually function.”

So much for “We need to try something new!!!“, hm?

Though I won’t, I should take back everything I said about Al-Obambi’s failed economic policies – because they’re not going to be his at all.

They’re going to be the failed policies of Das Klintonreich.

Galston noted that while Clinton shunned the remnants of the Carter Administration in 1992, Obama’s Democratic predecessor led a popular eight-year administration, and the party is no longer riven by deep ideological splits.

Of course not.&#160 Socialism is&#160 socialism, after all.

Oh, and let’s not delude ourselves over the reason for Kaiser Wilhelm von Slickmeister’s popularity, shall we?&#160 It had nothing to do with his tax policies or his foreign policies or his “don’t ask, don’t tell” bullshit.&#160 The bastard accomplished abso-fucking-lutely nothing&#160 during his eight years in office, to the point where, eight years after&#160 he left and Bush restored dignity to the office, Der Kaiser is still – STILL!!!&#160 – looking for his “legacy”.

No.&#160 The reason it was so popular is that he was – and is – a fuckin’ frat boy&#160 still in search of his next lay.&#160 And it continues to clearly demonstrate the abject stupidity of the American people at large, who for whatever reason eat that shit up.

And I think you can pretty much guess what’s going to happen to the “95% of the people will get a tax cut” bullshit meme.&#160 Seeing as how we’re all still&#160 waiting for Der Kaiser’s “middle-class tax-cut” sixteen years after they were promised.

Fucking crapweasels.&#160
