		<description>so in the end business as usual. so after all the half-wits messed it up beyond repair they let the clever guy to the top to prove he can&#039;t do it. There is not enough money in the world to save the US and the US is basically bankrupt anyway, so good luck Obama, maybe ten years ago you would have had a chance.</description>

		<description>It was a historic day indeed with the inauguration of Barack Obama and now Obama will have to sit down and to tackle the problems facing the United States of America.
