When President Obama pardons Rod Blagojevich, will the American people realize they've been played for suckers?

How is another man's behavior Obama's fault? Also, all Presidents do icky pardons at the end of their term. Bush has a ton up his sleeve that he will do in this lame duck period. Presidents of both parties do this. Gerald Ford pardoned Richard Nixon, who was Republican. Nixon himself said that if the President does something, it is not a crime. They even made a recent film about this for gosh sake. Please tell me that you are aware of all of this and this response is not only about Obama's colour. I think the psychological source of all problems with Obama is hue based. I think it is programmed and subconscious for most people. I can't blame people either. In a society that pretends that we are all the same and consistently feed messages that Black people and other people of colour are terrible, although Whites do EXACTLY the same things, often first, why would someone think any thing good of a minority no matter what they do? Politicians are people just like us and many of us are not living up to the standards that we are holding them to. Joe The Plumber had 2 domestic violence charges on his record and Obama is not beating Michelle yet he holds Obama to the standards of God. Politicians SHOULD be accountable I agree but I cannot deal with the forecasting of behavior of things that HAVE NOT occurred yet. Too much is at stake at this point. People need to understand that if his administration fails, we ALL fail...Exhibit A - George Bush. So stop rooting for him to fail in the hopes that you are right. As Dr. Phil says, do you want to be right or do you want to be happy. Pray for the Pres if you are religious and good wishes if you aren't so that we all can succeed. I never voted for Bush, I did vote Gore (for hell yeah sure) and Kerry (reluctantly) but I never wished Bush failure and tried to guess what he was going to do wrong in hopes that I could be right. I don't need to be right (I usually am though) I prefer to be happy.
