Lay off Obama!

I am not the hugest Obama fan, I was vying for Hillery but I when it came down to it I voted for him over the other guy. What I don't get is all these people who apparently expect him to be God. It took Bush 8 years to run this country into the ground! (8 years we gave him by the way) Obama has been our commander in chef for a little over a month. yes, our economy is still in the crapper! Yes, we are still in Iraq! No, we don't have marriage equality yet! No, DADT has not been over turned! Give the guy time to breath. He has just been given the task of running our entire screwed up country,let him at least pick out a dog before you expect him to wave his magic wand and pull billions of dollars out of his ass! I have actually been impressed with the progress he has made. He has already put a new stimulus plan in place, sorta kinda pined a date for pull out of Iraq, and been talking with officials about the repeal of DADT. And for those of you who are jumping the man for wanting to have a plan for DADT repeal, as a out and proud lesbian I say this, Shut the fuck up! Its more then any one else has ever done for us! Remember its a law people! Even the president does not have the power to repeal it just like that, there are channels for that kind of thing. We have a President not a King. A president that would like to be re-elected in 4 yeas. Personally I think having a plan in place for the inevitable social up roar over DADT's repeal is smart, and if it means that all those soldiers will have to wait a few more months or god for bid a year before they can pin a rainbow to there uniforms then so be it. Cut the guy some slack. If you think you could do it so much better then save up some doe and put your name on the ballet in 4 years. Till then sit down and shut up till we see what he can do!
