*Chuckles* It's a matter of questioning everything. I may have helped vote the man in...but by some weird notion I keep coming under the delusion that since I helped give the man a job, I feel he should do what I ask of him now. Especially when my voice is joined by thousands.
But, he's also done good. The Obamacare thing? I think it's a good start. He ended the shit in Iraq [which unfortunately cost us a looot of money; drawing down a conflict costs a ton of money for many, many reasons], he got the US navy to secure international waters against Somalian pirates, he's been trying to balance the wealth disparity gap, and he at least had the sense to not let the taxes raise on the middle and lower class during a really shitty recession. And, hell, the job economy has been recovering slowly but surely. I doubt it'd be realistic to expect it'd jump from "shit" to "fantastic" over a year or even two. I suspect if we have a REALLY amazing president next term for 8 years...we still won't see the unemployment return to normal by the end of it, even if Obama had been perfect, same thing. Too much shit got broken under Bush. Gonna take a lot of fixing.
