So just where, Ralph, did you read that Obama bans earmarks? In fact, Obama was one of the biggest earmarkers for IL while he spent his two-something days in the senate!

-------------------------------------
Umm... the news.  He is refusing to sign the stimulus package if it has earmarks.  

Wouldn&#039;t it be great if Americans would support their president when he is trying to do right by us rather than constantly attacking?  What a great nation we could be.</description>

		<description>Where was the &quot;Magic Messiah&quot; when he had a chance to speak up on earmarks while in Congress,,,,,,,,, uh uh uh oh that&#039;s right he voted present.

Enough of this so called change,,,Bill Clinton didn&#039;t do it and neither will Hussein Obama.  How do I know this, he&#039;s using all of Clinton&#039;s cronies in his cabinet.

Just like all of the Obama-aid drinkers their chosen one doesn&#039;t have a clue!</description>

He is a progressive so he must be more fiscally responsible than the conservatives.

		<description>Despite all the attacking that goes on in these endless &quot;blogville&quot; realms....I believe that Obama will prove to be a very interesting leader of the Free World....Love him or not --- you are going to get a real change in the Political realm.....many will go down kicking and screaming....I hope that all the voters are watching their representatives with a keen and watchful eye.</description>

		<description>Accountability?  I thought that was what checks and balances were meant to do.  There is no accountability in D.C.
The President can&#039;t clean up Washington, but WE CAN.  We won&#039;t, we&#039;ll keep electing these idiots and criminals, but WE CAN!  The key to reforming government is not by making it bigger.  
BTW- While the nation is suffering a recession and firefighters and police are taking cuts in small towns like Galveston TX.to keep their jobs, our Congress just voted to give themselves a raise.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s a darn shame a reform post had to be created in the first place, but Obama has no choice. Washington is dirty. This action just shows you how far off our country has been driven off the tracks in recent memory. Washington needs a serious clean up....better it needs an intense scrubbing with all the bleach one can find to get rid of all the corruption, lobyist, and crooks who have been raping the nation and the American people for eons and getting away with. So Mr./Ms. Reformer get to work. Your work is long overdue.</description>

		<description>Sherrol,

You and I live in Canada.  You shouldn&#039;t be using the plural &quot;we&quot; with our American friends.  Our governments are quite different, and the Canadian one is much larger, on a per capita basis, than the U.S government will ever be.

No disrespect.</description>

		<description>From this point forward I am not going to read any blogs.  I had taken a break from them and felt so much better in my soul.  They arouse feelings of divisiveness and hatred in people, on every topic.  Even the positive bloggers indulge, hating the &quot;haters&quot;.  A better use of time would be to read a book, see a friend, work on something, enjoy a hobby.  I refuse to waste emotional energy here anymore.  I am not learning anything except how deep the ignorance goes.  Bye!</description>

		<description>Such a bunch of cynical naysayers!! PE Obama is doing exactly what he promised and the majority of voters which him well for the good of the country. The people constantly blogging negative comments on every blog should get up and do something more positive with their lives and their country.</description>

Turn coats....you chose the side you wanted to be on.... so just head into the caves with them.... your run in office means nothing.... next election we shall see who is back... and then WHO is BACK!</description>

		<description>Necessary? Hire a person with excellent managing ability to head the Office of Management and Budget and you can balance the budget the way Clinton did in 90&#039;s.

Just another example of Obama playing image/identity politics with hyping a title position.</description>

		<description>Now this is the type of position Obama should have appointed Panetta for...instead, for this position he will probably pick someone who has been trained in counterterrorism...because his appointments are making about as much sense as someone picking names out of a hat at random.</description>

		<description>What a mind!  It is great to have a president who realizes that he can&#039;t please all of the people all of the time.  He is concerned about the needs of the American people, and wants to do what is right.  He is not arrogant.  He cares what people think.  I agree, he is a godsend.</description>

This position would bold well to the new appointments of Pres. Bush if they fail to follow the Obama/Biden agenda.</description>

		<description>Yeah I and I guess the reformer position will be filled by some dinosaur from the Clinton era. How about Madeleine Albright has she been given a job yet?

Talk about a snake oil sales man, that Obama sure did take you all for a long ride.</description>

		<description>This is amazing. For the first time in history a position has been created that only people who are interested in reform can fill successfully. Although, I imagine that it can be turned the other way around and used to reverse reforms, too. The purpose of this office will be a point of interesting contention for years to come....</description>

What would a Chief Performance Officer have to say about the gross waste of effort and expense incurred by Harry Ried&#039;s illegal blocking of Senator Burris from his seat??</description>

		<description>Banning earmarks?  Wow, did I over-sleep because I don&#039;t recall the president actually getting the line item veto authority!  Perhaps the great Constitutionist Joe Biden can explain to Mr. Obama about the powers actually afforded to the Executive Branch when he returns from his &quot;highly important&quot; trip to Southwest Asia?  Seriously, with Obama&#039;s record of getting earmarks when he was a senator, working with earmark hogs like Pelosi and Reid, even the blind can see this for what it is, grandstanding rubbish!</description>
