Want

I keep hearing the most amazing, and not in a good way, thing. Barack Obama has been President for 37 days, right? Close enough. The largest spending package in the history of the country was passed, many of W's truly vile and cynical measures have been overturned, the process of closing Gitmo is underway, the most massive budget ever has been produced (including all the spending hidden in the past by BushCo) has been presented to the world, plans to bring as many troups home as possible are on the table, and everyone still wants more. people want the absolute final plans, the final decisions, the money in hand, problems solved and neatly filed away right now.

The last president had 8 years to screw us all over. That cannot be undone in 365 days, much less 37. I know many, if not most, of you have money to make and advertising to sell and bosses to please and ratings to worry about. But, seriously folks, take a breath and give the man and his team at least a few more days before moaning and groaning that it hasn't all been done. A few more weeks would actually be nicer.
