80. I am one of those who feels not enough has been
accomplished. I stand by Obama no matter my thinking on this subject, it's just that we are all a little impatient. We waited through 8 of the longest years, the darkest years...it wasn't just Obama who inherited George Bush's purposely orchestrated calamity, it has been all of us. We are weary and we are chomping at the bit.

We want less moderation and more progressive action, yes we are happy about all you have listed, and yes it's going to take time....our expectations are huge, time is not on our side, we were thrown into the abyss, we want our hero and he's got to be an action figure NOW.

That may be just a little much to ask for, but that's what we want, what we need. Having said that, I don't listen to others bad mouth without speaking up, but here, here is where we can be progressive enough to criticize and scrutinize and make demands on our own. Un-huh, that's right, that's why I love being a kick ass liberal/progressive. There's no other way to go. It's the right thing to do. So, here's to kicking ass and taking names later.

A little kick & R :kick:
