HAS OBAMA ALREADY FAILED US?

[substitute]

We're hardly into the new era, and already the honeymoon is over. Broken promises, failed reforms, and betrayals of principle have crushed my dreams of this so-called "change." To summarize:

• Plastic clamshell packaging has not yet been banned.
  
  
• I and several other friends have dry, painful skin and a recurring cough.
  
  
• Nothing, not even a plan, to replace our nation's dilapidated traffic cones.
  
  
• Open punditry is still tolerated and even encouraged.
  
  
• The President-Elect cannot cure the King's Evil by touch, nor has he called his men to horse against the Dragon, as it was foretold in olden times.
  
  
• Just like his predecessor, he has not protected us from the Manimals. I am already on record here and here and yet I hear nothing from Mr. Obama.

Welcome to another eight years of tyranny and incompetence. WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN!
