1. I was just about to post the same thing...
He is magnificent. He is more human than politician, he is funny and RIGHT.

6. You tube will be up post-haste! I will post here for you when I find one.
Do yourself a favor and watch it! I guess I may have missed seeing events like this with Obama, but it gave me a good buzz.

5. So far it seems like we can handle the truth just fine.
The media should be ashamed.

I've been waiting for a leader like this my entire life. I was too young at the time to appreciate Carter's truth.

37. I think the bipartisan thing is going to be second tier in his thinking
rather than trying to find common ground with nazis.

7. I do love watching him work and suspect he's got all kinds of smooth moves up his sleeve.
Edited on Mon Feb-09-09 12:34 PM by AtomicKitten
It's unfortunate people are dismissing him prematurely. I think his presidency is just starting to unfold and am thrilled to have a front-row seat.

10. I find his tactics amazing. I've never seen anything like it.
I'm proud to have voted for him. I want him to succeed in getting America back on the right track and I think he can do it with our help.

15. I see a President who is knocking it out of the park
"If we're going to spend this money, let's solve some big problems while we're at it."

16. Who was the person with the black sided banner/sign
that raised it up when President Obama finished his remarks and was getting ready to take questions from the audience?

I missed the banner but didn't hear anyone booing so hopefully it wasn't a big deal.

32. I don't think it was a banner.
It looked like a t-shirt to me. I assumed it was an Obama t-shirt but I could be wrong.

36. It looked smaller than a t shirt and it blocked my view of
my President. :mad:

There needs to be a "new rule" his face must be available for Ms.goclark to see at all times.

21. HA! No wonder Ron Christie wants Obama to stay in the Oval and just govern....
When the POTUS gets out among his people he rocks. Christie doesn't like that much.

25. He's never flim-flammed...from the beginning.
He's always said what he meant and done what he said. This is why I voted for him. He does listen. He may not do exactly what you'd expect him to do with what he's heard, but he does listen and I believe take what hears to heart.

34. I may not always agree with him, but I never feel like he's just bullshitting me.
When I disagree with him he usually made it clear ahead of time that I would, so even at those times I don't feel like I got screwed over.

I genuinely feel he's a good man.

39. Well, didn't he tell us on the campaign trail that...
he would always tell us the truth,that we would not always agree with him on all things and that we should all work with him. Some people seem to have forgotten this or they weren't paying attention throughout the campaign.

40. I believe him yet he must know some horrible things now
that he could not possible tell us.

The Rush led Repubs have wounded us so deeply,it is hard to believe anyone when they speak the truth to us. :cry:

41. Unfortunately his economic advisers have flim-flammed him ...
and the economy will suffer for it. I predict that within 2 years the entire $900B+ will be in the hands of the profit sector and the whats left of the economy will be at least that much further in debt to the profit sector.
