Just to check the regular dose of absolute certainty from you folks who are so sure of everything,
and your continued adolescent labeling as 'how could anyone', 'idealistic', 'foolish' and 'naive'
of anyone is who disagrees with you...
I'm a person who has literally scores of reasons and explanations for why the Obama administration is fundamentally on the right track, making impressive progress with an enormously challenging situation. Many of my statements have appeared here, often with no specific attempt to rebut from those so critical of the administration.
Just a little example: I cited the poll conducted by Siena College in which lots of college history professors were asked to rate all of the US Presidents in terms of overall effectiveness or "greatness". President Obama was rated 15th. The counter-argument: "what else can you expect from "academia"!"
I'll admit that President Obama is not perfect. Any of his actions and statements can be subject to some form of criticism. But his short legacy is already one of effective leadership. I also feel strongly that much of that effectiveness will not be fully evident until a decade, two or more.
A little example of that too: The President's opponents continue to insist upon how Social Security must be protected at all costs. I submit if you'd have been there to holler about it in the 30's you would railed at that Socialist Roosevelt and said the exact same things you now say about health care reform.
And as I've also said a number of times, this forum would be so much better without the name calling, ridicule and "absolute truth".
