We are yet again falling victim to the 24 hour news cycle. All the media have time and space to fill. Huge amounts of both and will put almost anything in there to fill it. I voted for Obama because he impressed me as intelligent, serious and forward looking. He is putting intelligent, experienced people in these top positions.

The Republicans have gone for the True Believers the last 20 plus years and look where it's gotten them and us. Maybe we want people who believe as we do but are willing to respond to the situation in the world today! You know, that old objective reality thing.
Let's wait a bit before condemning Obama's administration because they aren't doing things PURE enough.
