He promised to stop the illegal snooping on American citizens... then voted to legalize it.
Obama kept Bush's Secretary of Defense, Robert Gates... and set up missile defense systems in Poland, Ukraine & Georgia, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia etc.
47: Obama swore he would repeal the Patriot Act, but then voted for its reauthorization.
47:50 Obama promised to get the troops out of Iraq "Immediately"... later he changed that to looking into getting them out within 16 months... then to looking into getting them out in 24 months... then sent in 30,000 more troops to Afghanistan.
48: Promised desperate workers in speech after speech he would renegotiate NAFTA & GAT but then sent memos to top corporate leaders not to worry, that it was just campaign rhetoric.
~49:00 He was going to bring peace in the Middle East, he was going to bring transparency, and a balanced economy, he said he was not going to have lobbyists, he said he was going to clean up government, he said he was going to work for the environment... and point by point within the first month of his inauguration he has lied, deceived and cheated the American people.
49:44 said he was going to close Guantanamo Bay, but then told the press ... but his executive orders said the prisoners had no rights... lawyers said the abuses were *worse* under Obama than under Bush.

50:35 When a British high court said it was going to release secret British & US torture orders which would prove the Bush administration was sending orders to systematically torture detainees Obama threatened to cut off all US intelligence ties to England... He stated the program was important to national security... not only endorsing Bush's crimes, but continuing them.
51:30 Obama made keeping lobbyists & donors out of his administration the cornerstone of his campaign. Within hours of being elected Obama did a 180 and filled the White House and Federal Government with lobbyists and donors at all levels.
52:45 Three weeks into his administration, gave an Academy Award quality speech about his concern about the Wall Street bailout which his newly appointed Chief of Staff, Rahm Emmanuel, another top wall street exec had engineered. He said he had signed an executive order capping the top bankers' salaries... the big problem being that all the major brokerages and banks were exempt. The new order only dealt with any future bailouts... and those were to be on the honor system.
~ 54:38 Within 1 month of the 1st banker bailout bill, the press reported that $5 Trillion had just disappeared out of the US Treasury. By December, the amount of money that had been stolen had reached $8.5 Trillion. The leadership of both political parties circled the wagons and would not discuss where the money had gone. ...
