Can you imagine a black President who won't even uphold the Emancipation Proclamation? That's one of America's most hallowed documents. What does our present day situation look like? "Impeachment is off the table, but slavery is on the table?" Clinton's economic advisers should be arrested, not appointed.

And, we've already seen Obama's respect for the U.S. Constitution. He diminished your fourth amendment civil liberties when he voted to take lawsuits off the table.

Maybe that's not enough to puncture the euphoria of Rob Kall and other Obamatons like him.

But I've seen enough. Gentlemen, I'm leaving. (Honestly, I object to the ersatz press around here more than to Obama himself. The Bush years proved that the press will roll with fascism, genocide, mass murder, and stolen elections, as well as with shredding the U.S. Constitution. All while refusing to get serious about third party alternatives or ballot access restrictions.) And as for progressives who publish at web sites, I'd handle Obama like Reagan handled the Soviet Union: Trust, but verify.
