i LOVE this dude!

I guess Anita Dunn will resign on saturady night like VAN JONES did to avoid the Sunday papers...(or for the good of the contry hope she does)... I wonder what the lady at the Florida rally during the campaign who said she wouldn't have to worry about paying her mortgage and putting gas in her car anymore is saying now?

We can't view this in the US anymore! What's up w/ that?!?! Is this 'gr8' president causing that?! When I clicked on the link sent to me it said, "this video can no longer be viewed in your country"...
Answers? Anyone!

What I don't understand is the word hate. Why is there only two extremes? We either love or hate the president. He's either wonderful or a corrupt dictator. And since when does change come so fast? A simple example of that would be a change of habit, a simple one like folding your clothes after you've worn them. It takes you at least a month to develop that habit and only God knows how long it takes you to keep that habit.
Sometimes I think people feel like they've elected a God. We didn't we elected a man. A man that by his election alone has placed a landmark in the history of the world. He has promised a lot of change and mostly beneficial change to us all. Yet there are half-a-billion of us and one of him. It might take a while to get around to everybody. I am unemployed, I don't have health insurance, so yes I do know what it's like. What I don't do is expect him to bring my a pot of gold and waffles just because he's the president.
People change takes a while and it sort of need to start with us. He's an icon, a facilitator, a leader. But if people and the sensationalist media keeps trying to portray the FRUSTRATION of the people with him it's not going to make his job any easier. If we however show our support to him then we can all feel better.
I hate to be the one to repeat this but he has a lot of sh*t to clean up from the VERY, VERY f*cked administration that preceded him. And yet we listen when they scrutinize his work? Please, who are they to talk? Who are they to have our time of day.
Don't idolize Obama, don't sanctify him, treat him like a man, a good one, who's an awesome leader and quiet your frustrations and take actions that will make your life better.
Don't love or hate, LISTEN and WAIT.

if he won't say I will b/c he's black! lol thats a big reason, other reason is b/c the republicans can't accept the truth. They game they play is crazy! they had nothing to say when Bush was in office but every time i turn to fox they are dissing Obama.
