The Congress has caused every problem this country has, inluding the Housing and Banking crisis's by their actions or inactions. and not fixed one of the countries problems. He has surrounded Himself with people who were part of our problems, and is listening to them for advice on how to fix things. Economists and people in the Banking sector, are not the people to solve our problems. Soon we will see that He listens to the Generals and feeds the war, wanting not to be soft on National Defense, so the republicans can say I told You so. None of this is the mark of a great leader, or what we needed as a President. When one considers the alternative, I love the guy.
