  C'mon people, get a grip!!!

  Barack is not even in office yet but he has done more to help the people in three weeks than Smirky Bush has done in eight years. As the term goes "I serve at the pleasure of my President", I'm sure every member of this cabinet has been briefed on what is expected of them. I'm sure the republican right will do their best to screw up President Obama and if the left is not getting what they want the same will apply. So here's the BIG PICTURE... After 8 years of the rich boys filling their pockets, corperate welfare, and a inept President and his lackies we sure as hell could'nt do any worse!!! You the people have before you the next F.D.R. and the 2.5 million jobs he speaks of are from the F.D.R. playbook. You young folk don't remember the WPA or the CCC ?? I do!!! Find an old bridge from the 1940 era and you'll probably find a stamp in the concrete that says WPA or CCC. That stands for out of work American who F.D.R. put to work building bridges, hospitals, and schools after the Great Depression. The Civilan Conservation Corp and its men rebuilt the inferstructure of America thur putting people on the job and out of the soup kitchens. It gave men pride, a job, and a love of government again. The Tenesee Valley Authority did the same thing in the south. So lighten up on Young Obama, cause you'll see great things happen again!! President Herbert Hoover damd near killed America just like Bush has. Hope is here, change is here, and the pride in America Is coming back very soon!! Hang in there kids cause lightening is about to strike again. Us old people are as excited as ever because HISTORY IS ABOUT TO REPEAT ITS SELF!!! I'm so glad I got to see it before I pass away. So I hope you kids now understand that history is at hand and this old man is so happy for his children and grandchildren!! May God Bless America and have mercy on Americas ememies. WE"RE BACK, Give Em Hell President Obama
