Based on my recollection of the campaign, here are some expectations of Obama's first 100 days.

  • Troops out of Iraq
  • US friends with all other countries
  • Close the Gitmo terrorist holding facility
  • Government paid mortgages and free gasoline (according to Peggy Joseph)
  • Focus on war in Afganistan
  • Increase transparency and accountability in Washington
  • Eliminate America's use of coal
  • Stop Earth's temperature from rising
  • Kill Bin Laden
  • End partisanship in Washington
  • Stop oceans from rising
  • Lower unemployment
  • Increase value of investments (i.e stock market)
  • Lower taxes

Day 33. Raising taxes.

This article talks about the president's plan to trim the deficit.
To sum up, the president used his weekly radio address to say he is determined to get the deficit under control. How? Raising taxes. On who? Businesses and the wealthy.

Yeah, that'll work, especially with the economy in the state it is in.
