3. It's rare that during
his short time in office he's accomplished so much - yet no one talks about that on teevee. And as another poster wrote - progressives and Dem bash him for what he hasn't gotten to do yet or didn't get it done exactly the way they wanted. :shrug:

Carry on Mr. President. :patriot:

12. I'm betting they won't. Not that
that surprises me but, now given the proximity of the mid-term elections, no way in hell will they.

16. I did flip by CNN and hear Peter King saying the Feds did a good job. Since it was complimentary,
it was not going to be a segment repeated or booked/mentioned by other channels. I don't think many Republicans are ever volunteering to say anything positive about the Obama Administration. Seems like a one time screw up by CNN so they'll make sure it doesn't happen again.

I must 'remind' people of that fact constantly. Talk about short term memory.

18. I think that the Democrats running should make a point
if the can get the mike away from republicans long enough, to say that wasn't that a good job this administration did to advert another terrorist attack. They shouldn't mention 9/11 but they should be sure to say ANOTHER terrorist attack. Gee how many is that now that this administration has "foiled". The Christmas Eve bomber. The New York bomber. The Metro bomber and I could name a few more but you all know what they are. Looks like this administration is way out front in stopping attacks. Wish Bush had had their record.

21. It would be even better to have some Democrats, like those running for reelection, congratulate him.
