I don't know what I expected... well, actually I do. I really thought that after 8 years of hell, we could hope again. I thought Obama would come in and make good on his promises. I knew it wouldn't be easy, and it wouldn't be immediately, but that steady progress would be made.

And here we are, with health care still looking unlikely, we are still bogged down in Iraq and escalating Afghanistan, and the Sec. of Education is anti-union and not even an educator. (I'm not even sure he supports public education.)

I will give him props on the stimulus money. I do appreciate it, but wonder if it's going to cost me something down the road?
