I was asking because I had never heard the part about CSpan, but had heard the rest about the posting online and whatnot. There are a number of things that Obama has done which displease, but do not surprise me. Politics is a dirty business and those who participate in it, even with the best of intentions, have to play by its rules, whether it be Congress or the PTA. Obama is an idealist in many ways and this country's problems need more practical than ideological addressing.
sorta off topic...
One thing that really chaps my ass is the people who say they are so disgusted with government that they give up. How are things supposed to change if all we as a nation do is tacitly accept the status quo repackaged every now and then? My congressmen and representatives vote almost the polar opposite of me most of the time, but that doesn't mean that they don't hear from me and not just at the polls. I am extremely proud of my congressman, Jimmy Duncan, for his stand on the Iraq war, however symbolic it may have been, and I let him know it.
