I don't like him, I certainly don't trust him, and I have no respect for him. That said, I do not want to see him fail or for the Nation to crumble. Perhaps that is why I get so frustrated when he dithers-which he often does, then parades out pompously and with a glare declares how things will be done. His left wing cronies then leap around like hyenas on speed declaring how saintly he is.
Of course the left wing cronies who keep complaining that the right wants him to fail, are still dragging former President Bush (and many times even Reagan and Nixon) in as what is wrong with things now. Why, you just did so yourself above, when speaking of the GWB Presidency. Keep in mind, some of the things which went wrong under GWB, were from structural problems created by his predecessor, Bill Clinton. Clinton had bin Laden in his reach and let him go. Clinton had some of the financial advisors (like Geithner and Summers) who added to the flimsy construction of the economic towers. Many of the failed banks, had the roots of their collapse in Clinton soil.
That does not excuse the places where GWB went wrong- which he often did, just as President Obama and his allies (Pelosi, Reid, etc.) cannot keep shaking their fingers and fists wildly and blaming GWB, GHWB, RWR, RMN and others for what has happened during the Obama presidency. It gets stale watching you and others, still, a year and a half into the Obama presidency, blaming George W. Bush. Many of you are the same ones who felt that GWB was solely responsible for allowing the terror attacks of September 11, 2001 and other matters which happened in his first year. If he was responsible for all the ills of year one, then Obama must be equally held and most definitely he must be accountable for problems which have taken place here in his second year.
Even so, I do not want to see President Obama fail. Neither do I believe that he is done for. It is still early. Health care is moving into daily life, the economy may come around the sharp curve and start to visibly improve, the oil spill will have time to be cleaned, an immigration reform act bill can be cobbled together which both sides of the two Houses can agree on and pass and President Obama can feel good about signing and the Nation (its citizens) can embrace. He's far from done for, which is why, I had made clear earlier, that the current polls are useless, senseless, inane.
