Obama promised everything , he even promised to have more employment.
The Bush term so far has set records for full employment , so promiseing even better is just talk.
It is beautifull talk , but that is about the size of it.
===============================================================
What is "full employment" anyway? More people slaving in McJobs when all the good jobs have gone overseas. I heard Obama talk to people who were crippled by Bush's economic policy, homes foreclosed, jobs gone, education unavailable and I heard it on a gut level. People can understand that kind of talk.
You and McCain want to throw numbers at them to tell them how good they have it? That's how I hope you'll respond. People know bullshit when they hear it, and the last thing anyone wants to hear when they're in pain is "You never had it so good." But that's the kind of never-never land the snake-oil salesmen of the Bush regime are still trying to peddle. One of the best commercials I've seen so far from the Democrats has McCain saying in different ways how wonderful things are, and after each asinine assertion, a voice-over and text appears, "3 million jobs lost" [I'm sure I didn't get the right numbers here, I'm just trying to reproduce the tone of the ad] "4 million homes foreclosed," "47 million Americans without any health insurance," etc. In other words, for every cheery little twitter out of McSame's mouth, a stark, contradictory factual rejoinder of economic gloom and doom. And it really resonated. Anyone watching it would instantly realize, McCain is (a) lying and (b) totally out of touch because the lie is so blatant that any American would recognize it as such.
