Tired of the Conservative Crap

I get so tired of the same old conservative Republican crap that denigrates Obama and his presidency without ever giving credit for anything. No point in going over the dozens of things accomplished over the last few years. Today there are two examples that serve:

One: the decisive and patient running of the bin Laden affair;

Two: the remarkable response of FEMA after the devastation of the South last week.

The bin Laden affair was bungled badly in the past, and handled beautifully by the President. No leaks, no false moves tarnished this operation. SEAL team 6 carried out the orders of the Commander in Chief flawlessly, bravely and perfectly. They were the boots on the ground, Obama was the Commander. Where is there room for denigration here?

Go back to Katrina. FEMA was a disaster in itself. Lack of leadership from the top (wonder who that could be?) left New Orleans devastated for months and crippled for years. One of Obama’s early efforts was the reorganization of FEMA and a retooling of all of their procedures. Repeat: this was done under the Presidents directives. Fast forward to the devastating storms last week and FEMA was there in hours, massively and decisively. BIG DIFFERENCE, don’t you think.

Come on boys and girls, get real. Even the Republican leadership acknowledges that the President has done a few things right.
