After campaigning on promises to end the influence of lobbyists in the White House, Mr. Obama has imposed rules which allow for dozens of influence lobbying seekers, to enter into many of the White House positions!

Well, since this article does 'not' bath Mr. Barack Obama in a HEAVENLY GLOW OF LIGHT, for an absolute positive projection, then I shall be amazed if it makes it onto the Care2 Front Page...... So, let's just have some fun discussions on this comment line..... Since only certain news topics are being reported on this site!!!

Sometimes when I mention this odd fact, then, and only then, might it eventually go forward after it achieves 41 notes and 78 comments.....

But usually not!

There is not a whole lot of positive news coming out on Mr. Obama since his election, for some reason???

I can say one thing! If our beloved Obama chooses Bill Richardson for Sec of state, I am going to be one very pissed off woman! He is a hunter who was caught in a canned hunt which means your prey is captive! He also pushed for the trophy hunting to continue, which means Polar Bears! They have a picture of him in his Governors office with a picture of the exotic animal he killed at the canned hunt!! He has done a lot for animal welfare in his state but supports rodeo's which is a no no! He also supports the use of the AK-47! If Richardson is chosen Obama's halo will dim but not go out! At least for me! We must choose our own battles! And this is mine! Thank you dear Robert! Noted! P.S. Robert, I guess I forgot to tell you that my husband and I voted for Sen. Clinton in Calif during the primaries! As you know she took Calif very quickly, almost within 2 hours! When she lost we were devastated! But the next morning we climbed on the Obama band wagon! And the rest is history!
