66. driving from Alabama to North Carolina yesterday...
Edited on Wed Sep-29-10 05:21 PM by handmade34
I passed a vehicle with a bumper sticker that had the Obama Logo on it and asked, "Sorry Yet?" I wanted to scream out to the driver (didn't) and let him know that I am not sorry in the least, in fact, I am damn happy that Barack Obama is our President.

What was the alternative? McCain and Palin? Where would we be then? I do not blame President Obama for the high unemployment rate or the recession.

I am just as disappointed as anyone about not getting a public option. I am just as disappointed as anyone that DADT is still in place... I wish that President Obama had not tried to work with the Republicans because I believe that we would be better off if he hadn't... I wish so much deference wasn't given to corporations... but, I am not sorry that I gave money and worked and helped elect Barack Obama as our President.

I want to keep the Democrats in charge of the House and Senate, even though they are not working as hard as I want. I want to work with other concerned citizens and community members to keep our congresspeople accountable...

I am not sorry and I am willing to keep working to make it better
