So today Obama met w/ people on health care reform, sent $ and
Janet Napolitano to the Gulf Coast to clean up Katrina's mess, he brings
back stem cell research, and flies to Columbus, Ohio to show people a
real life example of his economic package working ..... money for cops.

Now I live in Columbus and although it is much better here than other parts of
the state things are hard here too ..... those rookie cops who had done the
training but were not going to be hired because of budgets cuts now have
jobs. But more important they will stay in Columbus because many of the
suburbs that still have money wanted to hire them for their police departments ....
AFTER COLUMBUS HAD SPENT THE MONEY TRAINING THEM ...... so they (the suburban cities)
would get good young cops w/ out the $100,000 or so of value of training the policeman & woman
@ the Ohio Police Academy and the 6 months of riding w/ Sr. cops for on the job training.


What can I say? The man aka Obama is good.

1. Our President is doing the right thing every step of the way imo.
And if he's not, he will let us know.

I also applaud him!

5. Ditto...
I don't applaud the whiners on the board who don't give him the credit he deserves and just want to attack him on all fronts.

2. Wait, I thought he was a failure after just 45 days?
According to the financial and Republican talking heads, that's the truth.

I'm so confused....

faster and earlier than any President in the modern era.

Obama is flat out kicking ass.
