Too true Sway. Americans have become too accustomed to instant gratification. Seeking magical fixes in drugs and technology for things that require effort and sacrifice to achieve.

you guys may be right. on the other hand, Obama has consistently said that the problems are big and wont get resolved overnight. A change from the mindless happy talk we typically get from the government will generate more patience than people typically have but you are probably right that he has three and a half years to turn things around and if he doesnt then there will be serious trouble for him in the next campaign. (Unless the repubs nominate Sarah Palin but I dont think God loves us Dems enough for that to happen)

You did make one acute observation about Obama sck. His vetting was basically done by his own words, rather than by actual investigation.

Obama's going to tell us to "stay the course" ?
Gosh this sound so familiar ...

For a really scary headline: Biden expects to be hands-on VP.

Has Obama produced a birth certificate yet?

Nah, CG, he'll never have too. He stayed the course and fought the (legal) battle long enough to make it. Neither he or the State Department will ever show what nations passport he traveled under when he visited Pakistan either. What we do know is it's wasn't a US passport or he'd have shown it.

Apparently, Judicial Watch (a non-partisan public watchdog group) has discovered links between Valerie Jarrett, an Obama advisor and co-chair of his transition team, and Tony Rezko, the non-friend but fundraiser,for Obama. Be interesting to see how this turns out, in light of Obama's reported intense vetting of his Cabinet and staff members.
