5. "Rather than the President leading us into the future" So he's leading us into the past?
Edited on Fri Jun-25-10 02:23 PM by ProSense
He reformed the health care system, the first President to ever succeed at doing so.

He is leading a green revolution for the first time.

He is moving on issues largely ignored for nearly four decades.

He is on the verge of reforming the financial system, putting in place reforms that no President since Roosevelt has even attempted.

The OP article is an attempt to pass off useless opinions as insight.
