‘America is no longer ruled by the law’ – economist Paul Craig Roberts

It has been 100 days of Barack Obama in office. Reviewing his policy, the election honeymoon was not that sweet to begin with and many in the US seem disappointed. Prominent economist Paul Craig Roberts is among those.
Did Barack Obama live up to the expectations of his voters?
What kind of changes has he brought to the country?
Where do people see his failures and what do they credit as his achievements?
Economist Paul Craig Roberts shared his feelings with RT.

Is Obama’s presidential honeymoon over?Barack Obama promised change, but some say he sold out on his promises. He called for a new start, but critics insist he is still flirting with old policies. The US President is marking his first 100 days in office. |
Mr Roberts is right about Obama. Obama voted for the Patriot Act and the illegal spying bill - how can we trust him? He's all talk and stunts.
Obama has inherited very difficult situation created by the greatest enemy US ever had GW Bush. I think he started well. There is still a lot to do and nothing can be fixed without a pain. On some issues he could go faster, like Guantanamo. I am surprised however the there is no attempt to account the former administration for their bastardly deeds.
