Leadership is not dictatorship. Read "Plato's Republic". "The Ship of State" is not a jet ski, and guiding it takes skill, patience and time. There are no instant fixes to anything. Grow up folks

Carlos STFU !

I am not saying we forever condemn him. But we do need to hold him to his word. Certain things like don't ask don't tell and legal gay marriage could be solved with an executive order and that would be that. He also has not decreased force in iraq. Defence contractors anyone? He has not taken a hard line against anything that will really change ... See Moreanything, especialy healthcare. All these anti-abortion and and spending limit amendments to the bill only give neo cons more fuel to complain about how long the bill is. Obama needs to grab the country by the balls and get things done.

I couldn't have said it better Benjamin and I love President Obama.

Nobody expects instant results. However, it would be nice if this guy could pull his head out of his ass long enough to accomplish SOMETHING to further our country and stop digging the hole deeper. At some point you've got to stop pointing fingers, be an adult, and own the situation that you are supposedly CHANGING.

why don't you be an adult and admit he has and is doing things everyday. this "mess" took a long time. how bout settling down and give it time. republicans are such cry babies.

God bless our troops. God bless America. And, may we know clearly what we are fighting for and against!

"The road ahead will be long. Our climb will be steep. We may not get there in one year or even one term, but America -- I have never been more hopeful than I am tonight that we will get there. I promise you -- we as a people will get there." Barack Obama

Awesome, Jema!!!

i still can't believe how quickly the website was up after John McCain said that. lmao it was like seconds after. ha!

Too bad that, according to the media of all sorts, the election was just invalidated/put on life support by yesterday's omnimega extra-special ever-so-important GOP wins in Virginia and New Jersey.

Yawn. Just more proof of idiocy. Bush was even *re*-elected and that bit of American genius flushed the country down the toilet. Now everyone wants things to change every five minutes. This isn't a fad diet but America loves those, too.

Tee hee, what a surprise, a republican won in Virginia, a traditional republican stronghold that only last election FINALLY elected a democrat. And that apparently means , as Larry says, that the entire election was invalidated. Ridiculous.

Actually, Virginia has elected quite a few Democratic Governors....and the first African American Governor. So I think this time the issue was the candidate, not the party.

leave it to republicans to start with the intellectual banter. nice language teeps.

I live in Virginia. It was ALL about the candidate. There is NO WAY you are going to get Dems and progressive Indys to vote for you if you are the democratic candidate and you state that when you are the gov, you will opt OUT of the public option! I was a Brian Moran fan and I think he would have done a hell of a lot better. Quite frankly, I blame Terry McAuliffe. He was the Nader of the primaries and Deeds slid in.

Hasn't Obama only been in office for a little over 9 months? I think in January you can try your "he hasn't done anything in a year" speech. But you still won't get very far....

Want to know what Obama has and hasn't done so far in relation to his campaign promises? Go to http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/promises/

Your real name is Barry. HAHAHAHAHAHA!

Give him time,he did not create all the mass,he inherited everything,it did not happen in one year and it will take time to correct.

"That One" passed by our house today in Madison!!

Are you at Maxwell Street when this is happening? You crazy guy!

That One needs to stop reaching across the aisle. Unless he enjoys getting bitten by snakes that bite you with a smile on their face. Yuck!

Obama has done more good things in his 9 months then Bush had done good and bad in his 8 years

What do the hoodies look like? Happy Anniversary!

Thank you, Ms. Herrera. Without question Mr. Check missed the debate and just doesn't get it.

I want a shirt that says "That One is The One!"
