I'm getting really impressed by President Obama
So far he's put a muzzle on K Street, overturned some of the worst shit Bush did, and now he's called out Rush Limbaugh.

And this is only his fourth day!

3. Wow............
I'm almost afraid to say this, but OUR PRESIDENT OBAMA is starting to look even better than I thought he was.

Pinch me, I must be dreaming.

Thanks a lot! I am so glad I didn't miss THAT!

7. I am a bit worried about him...
If he keeps going at this pace he's going to die from a heart attack in the next three weeks.

6. More from Obama
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=214x195170

FALSANI:
Do you ever have people who know you're a Christian question a particular stance you take on an issue, how can you be a Christian and ...

OBAMA:
Like the right to choose.

I haven't been challenged in those direct ways. And to that extent, I give the public a lot of credit. I'm always stuck by how much common sense the American people have. They get confused sometimes, watch FoxNews or listen to talk radio. That's dangerous sometimes. But generally, Americans are tolerant and I think recognize that faith is a personal thing, and they may feel very strongly about an issue like abortion or gay marriage, but if they discuss it with me as an elected official they will discuss it with me in those terms and not, say, as 'you call yourself a Christian.' I cannot recall that ever happening.

9. Putting those lowlifes in their place and cutting them down to size in the process
all done while praising the common sense of the average American with a smile.

Formidable.:thumbsup:
