It Pisses Me Off When Folk In The Media Say That Obama Is Really A Lucky Guy........ [View all]

as if the positive movement in the economy since he took charge was all a matter of luck. He made decisions and put people and programs in place to help this economy recover. That is not luck that is being a good leader and making the hard decisions to bring about change.

It is not about Obama being in the right place at the right time. Heaven's no - look what he walked into when he took office.

With the hard work by him and his administration - we are finally crawling out of the hole left by Bush and the Repugs - and we're doing that with essentially no help from the Repugs. That is not luck - that is skill.
