FYI, Ted. Loyalty implies trust. Sometimes you have to trust that people with better information than you, and the brains to use it, make good decisions, even when it appears in the short term that those decisions aren't good. In business, for example, I trust my employees to make decisions on a day to day basis. Sometimes they make on the fly decisions that I want to contradict in public, but I hold back and defend them instead, because I trust them to have better information and the brains to use that info. Usually, when I touch base with them in private, I found out that the decisions they made were on the mark.

I know it's hard to trust our leaders after having Bush, but I believe Obama is worthy of that trust. He has more information than we do and he has the brains to make the right decisions. Let's leave the politicking to him and let's focus on the policy decisions he makes once in the White House.
