1. I think Obama is a pretty good President

It is easy to attack the legislation that is being passed as not progressive enough. The thing is that even though we are getting watered down legislation passed at least we are not stripping regulations and shutting down departments like the EPA, they are just being slowly killed by the (R)s in the house.


We have stopped moving in the wrong direction on any number of issues. We aren't changing direction very fast but the President has limited power and he is facing an election next year. I think once he starts campaigning and presenting his own record to the American people he will look pretty good, not just good by comparison.


I'll settle for castles made of sand, for now.
