We disagree on measurements then. Failure to keep a promise is only determine by actually breaking it, not by not having met it yet.
That plus I've already stated my views on politicians and promises.
Anonymous Moose Wrote:And honestly, we should be focusing on his more major promises:This I more agree with, or at least that there needs to be an actual methodology for weighting those promises in the list since by itself the 500ish of them are not very uniform in size and scope and it's hard to tell how much from each section is just fluff that nobody cares about. He could be doing better or worse than he appears to be doing just off the list.
I'm pretty much ignoring your list of broken promises since I don't particularly care about what he said to get elected. It's all relatively old news and I have no interest in defending him or attacking him. My point in posting those was that both sides are measureable and can be accountable to those who do give a damn like yourself.
It's not having what you want - It's wanting what you've got.
