Today on Face the Nation, Bob Schiefer of CBS News Interviewed Vice President Joe Biden. Biden recently returned from a trip to Pakistan, Afghanistan and Iraq. During the interview, without any prompting or questioning from Schiefer, Biden said the surge has worked

Well, well, well. What a difference 4 days makes! After a 2 year Presidential Campaign where all Democratic candidates, as well as their key backers like moveon.org, have despised and maligned the surge and refused to acknowledge the clear success of the surge, we are now being told that the surge worked by those we just voted into power that never were honest enough to acknowledge this.

This is change we can believe in? The only change that I see the first week is the change from bashing the policies of those in power to the fact that the people who were bashing and trashing the surge are now in power.

The inauguration of President Obama surely was a great moment in the history of our country. This is in fact a historical change that I certainly believe in. However, in just 4 days, we are seeing some disturbing changes that don't represent ...
... change at all; rather, they represent ideas and declarations that have been tried and failed miserably in the past. Consider the following:

1. The same Democrats who bashed the Bush administration for the deficits are now proposing stimulus programs that will double the budget deficit in 2010, even after the TARP funds. That's 2 trillion in debt in one year! They bashed Bush for a budget deficit of 400 Billion. This is change we can believe in?

2. Obama says the stimulus will create or save between 3-4 million jobs? After 9-11, we added well over 6 million jobs; yet the Democrats bashed Bush for the so-called tax cuts for the rich in response to the worst attack in the history of our country, not to mention the bursting of the NASDAQ bubble. This is change we can believe in?

3. In a meeting at the White House the other day, House Minority Leader, John Boehner offered some ideas to improve the stimulus plan to which President Obama replied I won. This is change we can believe?

President Obama, we are not Republicans, we are not Democrats, we are Americans. We are not prosperous, we are not poor, we are Americans. Your policies and declarations and executive orders should not discriminate between the parties, between the sizes of bank accounts, between groups and individuals. What benefits one must benefit all.

President Obama, set policies that are uniform; One Tax Policy, One Foreign Policy, one Social and Fiscal Policy. Do not try to choose winners and losers based on political constituencies and ideologies.

This is change we can believe in.
