Ode to Obama

"I like to know what I'm talking about before I speak."  
President Barack Obama

I'm not sure I can take it.  A president who takes time to think, gather the facts, analyze a situation and then takes action.  Dear Lord, we may actually have leadership in the White House.

I appreciate the President's candor and his willingness to do the job WE sent him to Washington to do.  The media isn't quite sure how to "handle" him.  That's because he won't be handled.  He's handling the business of America and last time I checked...that's what we asked him to do.  He hasn't launched any sneaky wars, tortured any prisoners or prohibited anyone from speaking their mind; so in my book...he's doing just fine.

  1. I agree...i think the prez is doing a great job...considering what he has to clean up after the last eight year....i feel that he is a man of his word...and the best quality about him for me was that he is very wise and think's before he reacts... that's the reason why i voted for him...

  2. I agree with you completely. It's such a refreshing change to have leadership in Washington who stop and think and if they don't know the answer, will state they don't but will research and go from there. Kudos to you Ms. Jones for coming back. I've missed you. A friend from Houston.

  3. This man is extraordinary in so many ways! As you say, he actually thinks before he speaks --what a notion! He is also honorable and a true gentleman. I just love to see the Obamas together because they exemplify what a good marriage can be. I'm proud he's living in my town!!

  6. I respectfully disagree. He may say "I like to know what I'm talking about before I speak" However, based upon what he actually HAS said, it contradicts that statement. He blasted the previous administration for its handling of the corporate bailouts, then in turn does the same thing in his handling. He knew about the AIG bonuses, then denies it and pits AIG versus congress. All to get the American public angered. Then what will happen, is what always happen. We will lose focus on it, because of collective short term memory. He obviously hasn't taken the time to vet his choices for government posts, he has also insulted major allies, and aside from being a fantastic orator, he has not convinced me at all, that he is the agent of change he campaigned on.

  8. He is truly refreshing. There has been more action for the American people conducted in his first few months of office than previous administration's completed in an entire cycle!!
