Efforts to clean up Wall Street abuses - nope! Efforts to pull back from Bush era assaults on the Constitution - nope! Efforts to reign in extortion by drug companies - nope! Efforts to reverse war policies - nope! Efforts to address "don't ask - don't tell" - nope! Efforts to reign in the wanton criminality and loan sharking of credit card companies - nope! Efforts to reign in health insurance companies ability to screw people over - nope! etc.
It is looking more and more like the "Audacity of Hope" campaign material was simply a huge mistake at the printers and they ran with it anyway.

"Efforts to clean up Wall Street abuses - nope!"
We just passed a Wall Street regulation bill the other day.
"Efforts to pull back from Bush era assaults on the Constitution - nope!"
Closing Gitmo, banning torture, ending warrantless wiretapping.
"Efforts to reverse war policies - nope!"
Withdrawal beginning in Iraq and a date certain for Afghanistan.
"Efforts to address "don't ask - don't tell" - nope!"
Already slated for the next defense appropriations bill.
"Efforts to reign in the wanton criminality and loan sharking of credit card companies - nope!"
Credit card reform bill passed, and the Consumer Financial Protection Agency created.
"Efforts to reign in health insurance companies ability to screw people over - nope!"
Regulation for the first time virtually in history, restrictions on premiums, no pre-existing conditions, and on...
