Exactly so, 999 (may I be so informal as to call you "9"?).

I had high hopes for Obama, but he hasn't delivered quite as I hoped he would. But to give him all due credit, much of that was not his fault. An obstructionist Congress hell-bent on blocking everything he tried to do to help the country.

Nevertheless, he is the best hope out of all of the viable candidates and aspiring candidates. At least he will slow down the tendency of the Right Wingers to hurl the country off the cliff.

Many times I have asked Goofus which of the viable candidates he prefers, but he apparently hasn't even thought about the matter.

Either that, or he doesn't want to commit himself.

Although it's obvious to most folks that he should be committed.

P. S.   By the way, Goofus, even though I worked for an ABC affiliate (owned by Disney Studios, incidentally), I was not working FOR ABC. I was working for the local station, and it was my obligation to use my own judgment. Bigger people than you have been satisfied that my judgment could be trusted. So your petty jibes blow away like wisps of fog before the fresh breeze of intelligent discourse.
