Who doesn't love campaign promises?


So here is the list as promised by our President-elect:


  • Clean Energy: $10 billion and 5 million new jobs to be created.

  • No Child Left Behind Act (clearly a failed policy, and yes, you heard that from a conservative): he wants to broaden it.

  • Education: Huge increase in funding to recruit, pay and retain the best teachers for our children.

  • Immigration: He wants to strengthen our border control and crack down on illegal immigration ($$$).

  • Tax Cuts for the Middle Class (hooray).

  • Insurance Coverage for the 45 million uninsured Americans: He says they will have the same type of coverage as Congress has.


On top of that he has to save the economy and send me my second stimulus package money. All in day's work for America's messiah...

Let's hope he can at least go 2 for 5. If you haven't gone to pickensplan.com and checked out what Boone Pickens has put out in regards to energy you must. Energy independence is a big deal according to everybody, and Boone's history in the oil business gives him some credibility on the subject. If we as a country are ready to invest in our future we might as well spend wisely. He'll be on "Meet the Press" this week.
