Is it just me, or do many of the objections to the Obama Administration

have to do with things that haven't happened? It seems like many of the things I read about are things people think the Administration is "going to do," rather than things the administration has actually done.

When I look at the actual initiatives the Obama Administration has made happen, I'm not seeing reason for constant criticism. Some things, that began even before the 2008 election are still going on, of course. We're still fighting in Afghanistan, certainly, and we're still out trying to eliminate Al Qaida or whatever, but Iraq has wound down. We didn't attack Syria, despite a lot of people saying we were going to. We haven't bombed Iran. We've pretty much kept out of the Egyptian stuff, and have cut military support there.

People have been declaring that Obama will "cut" Social Security for quite some time, but that hasn't happened. Discussions are still going on on the latest trade agreement everyone is sure will spell the end for American workers. That hasn't happened either, and we don't even know what will be in the agreement.

In the meantime, a lot of good stuff actually has been implemented. When someone points those things out, with evidence, complaints about the evidence being posted are sure to appear.

As most people here know, I'm a supporter of the Obama administration. I'm also a supporter of electing a Democratic majority in the House and increasing the majority in the Senate. A lot of what President Obama is trying to do has been effectively blocked in Congress, and the Republicans constantly obstruct even compromises, which means that stuff just sits on the table without any action.

2014 is my target, and electing a solid congressional majority is my goal. That's what I'm focused on. Let's give President Obama a couple of years to get some good stuff done. We can do that.

GOTV 2014!
