I live in Florida. This current resident of the White House has already messed up our budget all the way to 2009. Convenient eh, since he'll be out of office and the next pres will have to deal with it as well. I hope and pray that no one is expecting miracles from the poor guy (I hope) in office at that time. What a terrible situation he's left with. I cannot with enough disdain that I have for that Village Idiot! It will take a long time to fix things, yet it only took about 3 months for him to mess it up - starting with refunding the surplus he was left with and now the trillions of dollars of deficit that he left, and getting rich as well while doing it!

This will take years. The American people seem to expect an instant "fix" and it's not going to happen. As Obama says, end the war in Iraq and send our troops (what's left of them) to Afghanistan. That is where the real danger lies. Plus, all the money spent on Iraq could be used right here in America. Wouldn't it have been wonderful if we had those reserves and National Guard helping those poor people. The Village Idiot's handling of that was horrendous and I can't say enough about the way he handled it. I believe it was racial and any monetary help was given to new developers. Absolutely disgusting. Shall I go on? I don't think I have to.
