Ya see? It's like this. No matter who runs for and wins the presidency in this country, it is their job to maintain the status quo not to bring about real change. That's why corporations throw money at both of the candidates, who just coincidentally share the same broad vision as the other (and the previous President) once the election is done and they assume power. That is why Obama has declared that the "combat mission will be over in Iraq in 2010"...but that does not address the continuation of any other sort of mission. That is also why changing the name from "enemy combatant" in no way makes any of these detainees any closer to being released after all these years. It's all semantics and getting the people to believe what they want so badly to believe by manipulating the language rather than actually changing policy. And hey...I say this with all the love one can muster. I voted for Obama, believing things would be different. Not so much, huh?
