i think what most americans want obama to do is act like a president. taking 2 months to get acknowledge there is a problem does not cut it. to say he is going to kick a$$ is not very presidential. the speech that he gave the other night did more harm to him than good. he had no answers and turned it into a lobby for cap and tax. he is going along with the " let no crisis go to waste". he is going to destroy BP and then there will be no money coming from them to do the clean up. his speech did nothing to instill hope or convince the american people that he is on top of it. he talked about during the first days that he gathered the best minds together to work on a solution. who are those best minds. i kind of smell a BS artist here. this guy has bumbled this and every thing else that he has attempted because he has no experience or the ability to adapt to the occaison. i guess community organizing and being a president are entirely different. and to top it all off-------he is still blaming bush.
