I don't agree with everything Obama's doing Les. I'm giving him two years. After that, I'll join the lynch mob if things aren't looking up. He's got Americans that are actively working for his failure.

Geithner was a truly terrible choice. Putting a tax cheat over the IRS spoke volumes about the lack of ethics in DC, and it wasn't exactly a shining moment for Obama. Suspect he was afraid of changing horses in the middle of a whitewater river, next to a waterfall. On the other hand, he isn't packing positions with people just because they went to school with him, ala Chris Cox asleep (dead?) at the switch of the SEC (that Harvard ethics issue just won't go away!). Many of his picks have been applauded by both sides. I agree with the other poster. Obama does appear to be more of the same old government shi@, but I'll give him a reasonable amount of time before I berate him. Lots of more deserving government and corporate people out there to make fun of.
