Mainly the health care plan. There was a speech in which he said the following-
"If we do not fix our health care system, America may go the way of GM."

Really, isn't that a classic case of faulty cause and effect?
We all hated George Bush for stoking fear, using terrorism as a pretext to invade Iraq and Afghanistan. He, over a protracted period, disseminated insecurity about the safety and well being of the people. He used(his people,he wasn't smart enough) all kinds of fear mongering tactics. Remember when we thought Iraq had weapons of mass destruction?
All this was done to lay the groundwork for the something so invade and destroy a sovereign nation. What a sham!!!
Then i heard Obama say the above lines. Obama is using the health care problems and bad economy the way Bush used terrorism. Didn't he campaign for change and painted his opponent as 'more of the same'? REALLY?
I don't know how many of us are keeping track of the financial crisis..but from what I've seen/read/heard, he is making it a lot worse. (Refer the link-

Why should you and I, the Indians care? Because the US casts a huge shadow that puts us in a shade. All that they do affect us. And Obama, the American President is too important a person to be specious.
Bush used terrorism as a pretext to invade Iraq for oil and other business reasons. He made the big corporations happy. Obama is looking to do the same using fear about the economy.
More importantly, he is starting to treat us all like idiots.
Maybe this wont concern many. It should. Didn't Bust and his 'theatrics' affect you?
Obama is fast turning into a well spoken, convincing, articulate Bush. Isn't that too dangerous?
