much easier said than done

So, like many people, I just tuned into the state of the union address. With many US Networks carrying this, it left not much to watch on TV, Unless you are a sports fan.

The State of the Union is what you think it may be, An hour long or so speech on whats good in the US of A. Every year its the same shit, help the middle class, bring our soldiers home, hold the government accountable, etc etc.

In one ear, out the other.

With Obama its different. When he speaks, you listen, you want to believe things will happen. "yes we can", "Change" and all the other Obamaisms, come back and all of a sudden things ain't looking so bad.

But...


Reality has set in, President Obama had come into Office with lots of hype, and you could even say that he too, was starting to believe in his hype, and January 2009 brought a lot of hope for change, and positivity, however even Obama realized that the task at hand, even for him, will take time and effort.


You have to admire his determination, to get things done, to make government work together, to make a difference.

Year 2 of the Obama administration has just begun, with a lot of over promising and under delivering, heres hoping that 2010 has Obama under promise and over deliver, and the 2011 State of the Union address will be more of a "I told ya so" type of thing.

  1. well 8 years of fuckup will take time to get fixed. As long as Obama has drive and motivation to fix it all, i am sure things will get better...but again it will take time.
