The New Pres

Barack Obama is now our President and already has followed through with a number of promises. Gitmo prison is to be shut down, our armed forces are leaving Iraq by Sept. 2010, and a colossal economic stimulus bill has been passed. No wonder President Obama's approval rating is 64%. The Republicans in D.C. 'just say no' strategy (how unoriginal) is making a joke of a political party that has a rich tradition in American government--what a shame. There may be some pitfalls in this last spending bill, but from what I've read about it, the positives far out weigh the negatives. Rush Limbaugh and the Republicans may want the President, and by extension, the country to fail, but we voted for the change we wanted. Not what Rush Limbaugh and the Republicans want to continue.
