Check out the post-speech poll reported by CNN...

I have to agree VK. I assume you have noticed the dearth of opposing views to the same 5 or so people that seem certain that every single action of the President is wrong. In my experience absolutes are usually not very accurate, but the constant hammering on every step he makes, sometimes before he even makes it really is rather off puting. There are so many levels to what actually got us here that I truly don't believe anyone completely understands it. Further, I would think that if there was such and obvious "better" answer or action for our present situation it would be raised up and proffered to the masses and and seriously examined. For all of the Obama slamming I am still waiting to hear viable alternatives. Perhaps all of what he offers is not "right" but who actually knows what is right for this situation?
If all of the pundits and analysts are so brilliant about what is wrong here, where were they as we descended into this unholy morass? Why didn't they stop it?
How can so many be so pompous, when at the end of the day no one is quite sure how to deal with it, beyond supposition and theory? I am not pleased with every point of what I see so far but at least he has surrounded himself with a broad scope of intelligent and experienced people and is attempting to progress through this. I guess someone has to be the scapegoat...shame he only got a few weeks to fix everything.
