Lacy,
This article isn’t about giving the President time, it’s about campaign promises he has already broken. Give him time and there will be more. You sound like you would tolerate an unfaithful husband that keeps breaking his promises to you. Just give him time, we’ve only been married 5 months and he’s only slept with 8 women. Have some patience, I’m sure he will come around.

Erica:
Lacey is a prime example of the liberal mindset.
Overlook, ignore and fail to mention anything that doesn’t fit your preconceived notions.
If that fails, lash out and hurl insults.

I try to be gracious to everyone, but I have very little tolerance for people with an utter and total disregard for reality and common sense.

Right on Carl..I am also very polite to just about everyone.However, I do not tolerate being lied to or treated as if I am a fool. Obama has done zip for this economy and people in this country..I haven’t the slightest clue what she thinks he has accomplished except manipulate,embarrass and insult this nation. But at least the left in his defense has a never ending steady stream of excuses and imaginary exceptions, how it does keep me entertained!

It so happens I am very polite to the server staff when I dine out.
And I tip pretty damn well also.

Yes, he has a huge to-do list, no one is denying that.

Is it at all possible for you to admit to the point of the article?

No influence from lobbyists, yet he has a number of former lobbyists as part of his administration.

Earmark reform.
What happened there. We both know that both the stimulus bill and the omnibus spending bill were loaded with hundreds od million of dollars of funding for pork projects.
If, for example, earmarking 1.8 million dollars to an Iowa university to study why pig poop smells isn’t a pork project, I’d like to know what is.

Both the Rescue Plan For The Middle Class and the elimination of the capital gains tax are things that were supposed to be included in the economic recovery bill.

Any of this getting through to you Lacey?

These are not thing he hasn’t gotten around to yet because he has only been in office a short time.

I’m not suffering or scared.

You may suffer if you can ever admit to yourself that most of what he promised you isn’t going to happen.

These are things and events that have already taken place, and rather than stand up and do what he said he would do, he went back on his word.

Lacey, you asked to give you a break.

Fine, glad to do it.

But while you are on that break, put down your glass of Kool-Aid and take off your Obama-issued rose-colored glasses and learn to read.

Give the guy some time, geez! You think he has all this time on his hands to put in to effect EVERYTHING he said during his campaign in his first five months in office?!?! He can only do so much in a day. The to-do list for him is so huge because of the state of our economy, the war in Iraq, and all the other issues… it is not humanly possible for ANYONE to accomplish it all in just 5 short months. I understand we want the changes to be done now, because we are all suffering and scared… but just hang on and have some faith. He’s working as hard and as fast as he can.
I personally have never seen a President accomplish as much as Obama has in his first 5 month in office.
Hopefully you people don’t dine out in restaurants. You probably would end up yelling at the waiter they neglected to bring you the food 5 minutes after ordering it, so they must have lied. It was all a big fallacy just to lure you in to the restaurant to steal all your money and leave you homeless.
Ugh. Give me a break!
