LOL, it's no surprise to me. Did anyone really think that 8 years of Bush could be undone in less than a year, less than 2 years? Plug-in McCain for Obama and you would have the same result, but in the opposite direction.

It always cracks me up that those that voted against Obama in the last election have higher (sometimes unrealistic) expectations than the very people that did vote for him. Good thing we have online forums such as this to vent out people's feelings.
PST - Bush is long gone, this is your saviors time now. You can only blame the previous administration for so long. "It always cracks me up" how those who voted for Obama still pull the Bush card. You'll likely be doing that 3 1/2 years down the road when the elections come up again.
If Obama was the only member of the Executive Branch of our government, then I would agree. There is no Bush card, there is only people that are still sore about the election results and anything that goes on within the "US Government" which is made up of us, the people living here, not "just" Obama; turns into another conspiracy theory of how one man is doing the job of thousands.

Newsflash, he doesn't/can't/won't do every thing. If the story had some details about how Obama called up the Judge and gave an order to 'Delay Everything'; this might carry a teaspoon of water in an argument.

Obama might sit at the top of the Executive Pyramid, but he sure doesn't micro-manage every single person or issue that takes place within that part of the US Government.

To claim otherwise shows a great lack of understanding for how our government works. So yes, I will continue to laugh at how naive people are with the comments they post. No one thinks of Obama as the savior or messiah; that was just all Republican spin from the last election. Not including the loonies anyway.

Carry on though, the comments are hilarious. It's good to poke fun at your leader, keeps them grounded so all of those 'Obama Worshippers' out there will finally realize that he isn't a deity like the nice man in the red hat shirt told last year.

"No one thinks of Obama as the savior or messiah"

You must have missed the rally at Grant Park in Chicago on election night. The tears, the ecstatic smiles, the hugs.

People DID think he was the messiah, and thought they'd been saved. Hallelujah!

Reality is setting in. Nobody can turn this ship quickly, there is just too much inertia. It takes a lot of effort, with people working together. Are there enough to make a difference?

I think he had good intentions, and willingly accepted the adoration and unrealistic expectations, but now's the time his hair will turn completely gray, trying to balance all of the energies.

Anyone with a long-term perspective realized that the political pendulum had swung to the extreme left with tax-and-spend about to occur. And, here we are. The pendulum will swing back the other way in a few years, and we can fight about that when it happens.

C'mon. That was a reaction to the national milestone of electing a Black president. They didn't believe he was going to walk on water, or heal the lame.

People cried when civil rights legislation passed in the '60s (or slavery was abolished in the 1860s). They didn't believe Congress was the Messiah.
