Ode to politics...
I voted for President Obama. There are things that I see in him that I know could turn into greatness, and of course there are some things that I see that I don't like at all. I listened intently on everything that he had to said. I believe he has realized his mistakes and is going to try his hardest to make some changes. However will Congress follow suit with out whining and crying, ah, probably not. But that's really to be expected.
The way I see it, everyone who is skeptical needs to treat this like the a new head football coach. You can't expect miracles within the first year. Things are changing, adaptations have to be made, the staff and the players have to learn the plays and some people have to be let go. Are all the right calls going to be made, nope...but that just leaves room for adjustments and at the end of the season, they regroup and try to fix the issues from the previous season.
But in the end, the head coach has worked hard and earned his title. The players and the assistant coaches need to respect that title. They may not always like the plays called or how he may treat a particular situation, but he is still the head coach. This is one thing that really drives me insane. I understand that not everyone likes the president, or appreciates what he is doing, but dang on it, he is the President of the United States. It's like the Queen of England, she's not my queen, and I don't live in her country, but if she approached me, I would bow and show respect.
So, for Pete's sake America, he is our President, show some damn respect already!
