So..... America can actually make a choice that isn't 50/50. That's the only good thing I see coming out of the 2008 elections, but I could be wrong. I've no doubt been wrong about my fair share of things in the past. I certainly didn't want McCain in office either, so it was either a Giant Douche or a Turd Sandwich. I'll leave it to you to decide which one we got.


I'm hoping that something good comes out of it though, and that the vast majority of Americans were right. Given that there will obviously be some sort of change for the better or worse now, I have a list of things I'd like to see Obama do. I don't have any faith he will do any of them, but here's my Obama Change Wishlist:

1. Give GWB a fair and balanced trial for his war crimes and his pissing on the Constitution and American freedoms. (I mean fair and balanced as in the Websters dictionary use of the term, and not FOX News' No-Spin-Zone spin on the term)

2. Immediate investigations into any CEO or board member getting paid any sort of bonus (with or without taxpayer dollars) involved in any company that is losing money, losing their shareholders money, laying off workers, denying workers their cost of living increases that match inflation, fudging books, cutting back on employee benefits to secure the bottom line for the quarter, or in any other way jeopardize the lives of the people who work for the companies or have invested their money in them based on lies.

3. End the endless war on terror that serves no other purposes than to piss everyone else in the world off and dump 12 billion dollars a month in that shit hole when they have plenty of oil money to fight their own battles.

4. Reverse his treasonous vote for telco-immunity for spying on American citizens.

5. Putting a very quick end to this shit http://www.armytimes.com/news/2008/09/army_homeland_090708w/ and making sure that when we bring our troops home they aren't foot soldiers for the Government to pummel us into submission.

6. The tell corporate at my office that they have to make an outdoor smoking shelter for us where we have winter since they kicked us out in the cold. (Corporate happens to be in Florida)


I'm sure I can think of a million more things, but that's just what's on my mind this second.

What is your Obama wishlist?

Bush committed no war crimes, and any HINT of going after him would cause riots. I'm serious, it would bring on armed conflict. Worst thing Obama could do. The rift he'd cause might be unrepairable.


You want to spend the next 100 yrs looking into every company in the nation? Go for it. Might as well take control of all free market enterprises now, while you're at it.

A change in tactic in fighting Islamo terrorist might be in store, but don't look for anything to change immediatly.

If you're going to put Bush on trial, then put Obama on trial to, for his 'TREASONOUS' vote.

I wish he was a conservative Republican.

As for change, the first thing I'd like changed is your attitude. After that...I'd kinda like to rename Delaware.

The link works for me. I just tried it. Maybe they were down for a while. Let me know if it works.

I'd say Obama and most of the senate/house should be brought to trial along with Bush, but I'm not trying to piss in anyones Cheerios on the big day.

I wish McCain was a Conservative Republican too. I would have voted for him then.

This would be a time to misbehave, to be sure.

Heh.... Why is it Chris, that I think that will be the most intelligent and most agreed upon thing said in this thread, from start to finish?

Kudos to you for your never ending optimism, and I hope you're right about the man. Not like I have a choice who's president since the vote is the last refuge for the impotent man who really has no say in his day to day life.... so I just roll with the punches and hope that when he talks about spreading the wealth, he means taking it from the much-higher-ups and not out of my 40k per year or so salary. (My own company was bought out last year and the new guys are doing a hell of a job of that already without any Government intervention)
