I voted for Obama because I liked his message. But his actions don't match his words, which is what I find particularly disturbing.

No concessions, no provisions, no nothing to actually create any real fair market competition to put a lid on the price gouging. So the corporatists get a basket full of concessions without even asking, while progressives get their asses kicked and are called "fucking retards" by his chief of staff.
