I have to agree with you. I think that a lot of voters were duped by Obama (or maybe it was all of the much contrived criticism of Bush).
Obama is a bit more of a socialist than suits me.
As for the defense of our country, his words and actions suggest that our security is not his highest priority (as it appears to have been with
Bush).
But lets give the Dems some credit. They were persuasive - even if wrong.
