I saw parts of the 60 Minutes interview with The President elect. He seemed reasonable in saying that GM had to restructure to gain the taxpayer money. Bridge to somewhere he said. He also said that the public needed to trust economic institutions by having transparency in its dealings. I wonder if this is the same man who broke his promise to not take public finance after he said he will take it. Is this the same man who extolls the virtues of free enterprise but in the campaign wanted to spread the wealth around? Is this the same man who said he will reign in spending but now eagerly gives money out to the auto industry?
My point is that the American people elected a man without a political soul? He will close Gitmo in Cuba to pander to the left - throw them a bone to silence them for a time and then move to speak on tax cuts and free enterprise. The Pres elect seems to say anything to different groups to keep and expand his own power.
