It’s apparent to me that when Obama becomes President (he’s not the yet, ya know!), he will not be able to move fast enough for many of the Radical Right, Libertarian or Fence-Sitting bloggers and commentors around here. Their blog posts and comments here are filled with, “We know what Obama will do . . . “, “He hasn’t shown us anything yet . . . “, “What’s he gonna do?”, etc.
Seriously, you guys and gals just need to relax. It’s only January 4th and you’ve been going at it since November 5th of last year. He has his cabinet and White House staff picked, confirmation hearings are already scheduled and, I imagine, he’s working harder than anyone of us right now trying to figure out how to clean up the mess the Repbulicans have left.
As Bill Maher said on the Rachel Maddow Show back in November:
During the course of the campaign, a lot of the times, we, smart asses in the press, would question or somehow second guess something Obama was doing and it turned out almost that every turn that he was smarter than we were. So, I’m just going to sit back for awhile, until he messes up. I’m not going to stick my neck on the line because this is one smart cookie. We’re so used to having a president who’s so much dumber than us. It’s like shooting fish in a barrel. Well, now, maybe we met our match.
Oh yeah, one last thing, George W. Bush is still the President. So just chill.
