I can see the reason for some folks being unhappy with Obama. But the Republicans, who supported Bush's policies which plunged this country into a deep hole, are not co-operating in any way with Obama's plans to pull this country out of that hole. It is about time the disenchanted Americans also give the boot to the Republicans for their destructive behavior.
