I'm in favor of cutting Obama some slack -- enough to get things done, fer chrissakes.

The US didn't get into the mess it's in overnight or even in eight months, and it's not going to be fixed in the "First Hundred Days" -- or even in the Third or Fifth.

There are so MANY issues right now he MUST set priorities. Things like gay marriage, gun control reform, and similar things HAVE to take a back seat to getting people working, getting people needed medical care at a reasonable price, doing SOMETHING about US education, rebuilding the good name of the US abroad, getting the national debt under control, etc.

Or have we become too much a nation of instant gratification to see that?
