Obama Comforts Me

I'm only a recent Obama convert, but the man just scored some serious points with me by intimating that his ridiculous spending plans could potentially be delayed by the massive debt taken on by the Federal Government this year.

"Does that mean that I can do everything that I've called for in this campaign right away, probably not. I think that we are going to have to phase it in. A lot of it is going to depend on what our tax revenues look like," Obama said.

In a world where candidates simply can't be honest, I'm humbled and amazed that he would be so candid with a militant hemp-smoking socialist student base driving much of his success. All I want is prudence in the face of headwinds. To make the statements he made is a legitimate breath of fresh air.
