Yes, what he’s doing now (trying to bust Unions) is not what he campagined on… so you have no right to claim that he warned people about this or that people elected him to do this…

Well,I don’t necessarily agree. He did campaign on reining in the budget, no details. He got elected.

Obama campaigned in no small measure on health care reform- no details. He got elected.

Both ended up with a whole lot of unhappy people when the details were made known and both have now agreed to negotiate their positions.

Democracy is messy.
