(29,257 posts)#2 might be either the quick pardon given for the war crimes of the Bush admin.
#3 might be capitulation on the public option
#4 might be the failure to make decisions following the wall street scandal that could have helped the less wealthy and still accomplished major goals such as saving banks.
#5 might be the capitulation on the Bush tax cuts or other budgetary issues such as cuts to home heating assistance at the same time as the $$$ continued to flow toward the wealthy.
It is the BALANCE, the continuation of spending on war while lack of common sense help for the middle/lower class that really disappoints me.
There are countless other issues that I could think of as well such as the continued war on drugs (so called), education policy, lack of gun reform, slowlness of evolution on gay rights, etc.
