The world sat back and watched over 8 years while W nearly DESTROYED this country and everything it has stood for since the beginning...he left it in a MESS like we've never seen before from international relations to the worst economic conditions since the Great Depression...and LIED his @$$ off the entire time...

It's going to take time and yes, some EXTREME measures to get us outta the hole he left us in...

If the present administration wanted socialism, he sure passed on a perfect opportunity to nationalize the banks...he chose not to...

He wants a balanced budget, but there are some temporary fixes that require GOBS of money to fix...I haven't agreed w/all he's done by any means, but we need to calm down give a different approach some time to work...there's some light at the end of the tunnel...once the economy rights itself from W's abuse and neglect, the debt will start to dwindle and well get it back on the right track...

All the good folks who went out and showed their dissent w/current policy earned my praise...it's healthy to publicly demonstrate frustration w/the government, but I just hope the fear mongers to the extreme right don't perpetrate their fear tactics into a frenzy...

Obama had some pirates SHOT the other day for messin' w/an American flagged merchant vessel...now I hear his actions are a problem for some on the right...are they kidding??...what should he have done??...wring his hands and consult the lawyers??...hell no...he had them killed just like he should have done, but there are some who, no matter what he does, are in the default mode of "NO...WHATEVER HE DOES IS WRONG"...

Let's give some outta the box thinking a chance to work...the more divided the citizens of this country become, the more the politicians WIN!!...and as far as I'm concerned, they've won enough...divided, we WILL fall...
