![]() This is unfortunate. Pretty much all of the campaign promises I actually cared about have not come true. Though he got his health insurance law passed, it basically has no teeth and is unlikely to accomplish anything that a national healthcare bill should accomplish.
So he's pretty much 0-fer things I care about. |

As Riot said, they claim that Obama has kept 116 promises and only broken 16 of them. If you belive that, I have some swamp land I'd like to sell you. |

The President-as those who came before him- has discovered that some promises are a lot easier to make than to keep. Of course, I'm sure that some of them were never meant to be kept, just to secure votes.
