1. I only like about half the stuff President Obama does, but the only thing I liked about Bush was
the increased aid to Africans countries, and even that was marred by some religious restraints.

President Obama is not as far left as we are, and I would bet the next Dem President won't be either.

3. That's ok
There are progressives who like all of it, and some people who like the half you don't.

All in all, it spells progress.

7. It's chronically toxic and angry here now
I stay to get the news, but leave a lot of the commentary alone.

16. I am coming to that same conclusion
You get attacked if you don't follow their line.

17. Yes. His fellow Dems. didn't even stick together to vote for only middle-class tax cuts.
He now has to do the best he can with the Dems. he has.

14. The Presidential naysayers
are all complaints and no Action. If he handed them a million dollars they would want to know why he couldn't make it a million and one. He won't please all of the people all of the time anyway. And some never.

19. Boom! Into the positive! Nice to see these bits of info. I'm growing more and more frustrated, but
Edited on Sun Dec-05-10 10:04 PM by Parker CA
many of Obama's accomplishments go unnoticed and unreported. I find the decreases in bases quite interesting. In fact, I think if that were the only bit of info in your post, the recs would be far into the positive. It's a very strong point and something many are likely unaware of. He definitely deserves credit when due.
