3. Frankly, it was my lack of patience that caused me to be disappointed in Obama for

several months when I thought he was going to go along with the Republicans on SS/Medicare. I see now that he held his cards close to his vest, giving the Republicans enough time to get out their disgusting message before he impressively slammed them publicly. It was an effective, classy way to show the people how disgusting the Republicans are. He did it with a positive message, that he would not break the backs of the most vulnerable, like the Republicans want to do.

I think he's going to end the Afghanistan war, too; what better time than now to do it?
