I mean how much change did you guys on the right expect within his first 21 days? If after a year or so and things are the same way, it would make sense to criticize him for his lack of change. But come on, can he have at few months in office first?

His first swing at leadership is the biggest joke of a spending bill ever attempted. Please spare me the three weeks stuff. A popular incoming President with huge majorities in Congress coming to power with a huge economic issue staring at him and his first order of business is to throw the old guard a trillion dollar bone? Does this not trouble you if you believed in the rhetoric of his campaign? We have nothing else to judge him by. If this was a solid piece of legislation then there wouldn't really be any debate. But it isnt and the reason is that he let it be crafted by the radicals of the party. In a country in with the economic troubles we are facing, it should be relatively simple to craft and get passed an economic stimulus bill that all the people in the country can get behind. He has failed at doing that. What he has done is allowed the far left to take a $900 billion dollar victory lap. That is hard to stomach had we been swimming in money. It is not a good sign.
