I have no problem with high expectations. But don't promise me Boardwalk if you can only give me Marvin Gardens. To me there is a difference between setting goals and PROMISING to meet them. He PROMISED. He didn't say he would try, he said he would. And this particular issue was completely in his control. He said he wouldn't and he did. He broke that promise. Again, if he did say so absolutely that he would not appoint lobbyists, its not an issue for me.
I really wish I knew where you got the impression I 'wanted Bush'. I voted for Kerry in the previous election because I was sick of Bush's shit. Which brings me to another point. I get a kick out of all the democrats saying we had '8 years of Bush', well, guess what? It could have been cut in half, but the best guy they could come up with was Kerry? Sorry, but when the best guy theycan put up is Kerry, they have to bear at least some of the burden of the last 4 years.
