I Still Believe in Hope

What is with the "I told you so" attitude of conservatives these days? The right wing media has brain-washed their followers into thinking Obama is a constitution-hating tyrant that is destroying America. I've seen signs with a picture of George W. Bush with the caption "Miss me yet?" Umm...no. Bush bankrupted America and accomplished nothing besides inciting the ire of the world with his wars. Obama has stopped the bleeding of the economy and passed lankmark legislation improving our healthcare and financial regulation. These pieces of legislation are far from perfect, but at least he is doing something constructive.

President Obama tried to make progess in a bi-partisan fashion and his outreached hand was slapped away time and again. Watch out conservatives, because while you are busy trying to campaign for 2010/2012 and overturn the progress that has been made, our President just might fix our climate policy or God-forbid, improve education.
