It Really Isn't All About "Me"!

‘‘For Barack, success isn’t about how much money you make, it’s about the differences you make in people’s lives.’’

... The title of this post is a quote from Michelle Obama's Democratic National Convention bedtime story.  Because I try to be 'fair and balanced' *<cough>*, I wanted to give Michelle credit.  If indeed it is "making a difference" in people's lives that matters, then the Obama presidency has been a smashing success. (please note the word 'smashing')

To the:
... Barack Obama has made a profound difference. It's just not the kind of difference a lot of voters had in mind when they voted for the *change* that Obama promised.  I will offer no "I told you so's" even though it's tempting!

The nation has endured and barely survived nearly four years of this president who according to his wife has tried his best.  Who, in good conscience, thinks we should extend his contract for another four years?  Thanks, but no thanks.  His success is the kind we just can't live with.

Addendum:  Another point of agreement with Michelle Obama.
