And now random thoughts...

Teenagers for the most part have a "social education" - made up of speculation and interpretation of life as told through peers.

Obama's gonna have a much harder time f'ing up the country than Bush had.

Bush had everyone (lawmakers, courts, governors,) on his side for most of his 8 years of his presidency. He even had most of the public on his side for at least 5 years. It was only the last 3 years or so when everyone turned on him.

Obama has had 30 days as President and government is already turning on him.

Why didn't the wuss Democrats do the same to Bush after 30 days in office?

They just sat there and took it: "Hail Bush! Save us from all the foreigners! Save us from high gas prices. Save us from Al Gore and Bill Clinton! Save us from science and research!" The Dems were too scared to go against Dictator Bush and his army of social regulators and they continually funded the war in Iraq, so not to be labeled as "against the troops" and against America.

Why don't the Democrats play the same card and call governors that refuse the bailout and senators that voted against the stimulus package, as "against the citizens" of America.

Call them anti-American for disagreeing with the President, tap their phones, unveil agents that speak against the stimulus bill, add democrats to the supreme court and radio stations, speak mostly to other Democrats in the press, force publications to print pro-democrat speech --- oh wait, why be exactly like the last 8 years but simply flip the party? How 'bout something new, something fresh? "Move back to the center."

America tends to lean center-right on most everything and since the last eight years brought us so close to the far-right, Obama has to do ALOT of drastic moves just to get the pendulum back to the center-right.

It may take 3-4 years just to get things back towards the center. If he is re-elected then his second term would be pushing more towards center-left.

But he has a huge mountain of governors, senators and other lawmakers in his way, to climb back to center-right.

Good luck and if it don't work, just say what Bush said, "I inherited a debt from the previous administration." --- And basically take ZERO personal responsibility for any wrongdoing
