    “back to reality” does that mean “back to the Republican narrative” for mercopress?

    I had real hopes for the 'new hope' first black president of the USA.

    What a poor and dismal performance he has made of it. Keeping Bernanke AND letting him have his head in supporting the bankers who created the problem for us all was a real missed chance.

    I hope he does not have a second term.

    Always remember the one thing that the nation who holds the worlds currency can do to pay their debts: print more money.

    #9 “I had real hopes for the 'new hope' first black president of the USA.

    I agree with all of that...

    “I hope he does not have a second term”

    In an ideal world neither would I, but the other guy is much worse. If only someone good like Michael Moore was able to be a credible candidate, but hey, this is America...
