1. I hope Obama can bring change but...

his cabinet picks are bizarre to say the least.It seems its all the same characters in one form or another. Pro war Emanuel who was on the board of freddie mac at the time of mal investment.He also pushed nafta and lobbied to repel glass -stegal,which helped fuel the economic crisis. no more war please.less taxes please.help protect our civil liberties Obama.

4. Yes, sorry. Here's the back story...

During yesterday’s press conference with President-elect Obama, the journalists were divided into a White Sox section and a Cubs section. The pool reporter lamented that he — “a genuine White Sox fan” — was assigned to the Cubs section. During today’s press conference, Obama apologized to the reporter and took a shot at the Bush administration’s unwillingness to admit error:

I understand that as a life-long White Sox fan, you were placed in the Cubs section yesterday. And I want to apologize for that. This is also part of the new way of doing business: When we make mistakes, we admit them.

7. Obama does not play, he takes everything we face seriously

and I am willing to give him the support he so justly needs. He has alot to clean up.
