This unity and support, which so many fervently call for---I don't like it. It makes Obama into an authoritarian figure that I think subverts key tenets and principles of democracy.

There's no, "Can't we all just get along?"
We who organized around "Yes We Can" deserve to be angry when we feel like we are being slapped silly by a presidency of "No, We Won't."
To echo Bill Maher, it's time to be loyal to principles and not loyal to people.
Healthy skepticism and cynicism are necessary. The price of gullibility is far too steep.
Obama didn't run for student council president. He ran for the President of the United States of America.
He will have to answer for all the decisions made now and also answer for the unchecked movements and trends that have been ongoing for decades and years. He will have to answer for the Clinton retreads he chooses to populate his administration.
