Reply #71: In case you haven't noticed...

...You're one of my favorite posters on this board. I also think you've done a lot to help Obama. My post was a reply to yours, but it wasn't at all "aimed" at you -- or anyone else, for that matter.

I just think it's also helpful to remind people that Obama is both human and a politician. I think we can support him better by keeping that in mind.

As far as letters go, just keep up what you're doing -- aim us at the worst offenders. I see people watching your posts and joining in all the time.

One more thought: Writing the media might be a double-edged sword, since they like to get viewers through controversy. Maybe, especially in the worst cases, it would be good to go after the sponsors of the shows that regularly misrepresent Obama's positions, and cc that show with your letter directed at its sponsor. That approach might have more impact.

Just keep pointing out the worst ones. I'll help. But I'll also take the time to point out (without bashing him, or providing fodder for the enemy) when I think Obama is wrong. I think it's healthy to do that constructively, because we're his teammates. He needs to know when he's heading into foul territory.
