1 + 1 = 2

Okay, you know it’s coming. With President Obama’s first year in office coming up, the media will be taking a look back. And you know what the Republicans will be trying to sell you.

Here’s one:

A very good question

”How can the MSM (what's left of it) not "get" that disappointment in Obama over "lack of change" is precisely the object of the GOP in blocking change...“

And here’s one:

The story so far, in one picture

”Basically, we started out with a year that matched the Great Depression, but have since pulled back a bit from the edge of the abyss.“

Add it up. The stimulus worked. So far. Maybe not well enough and we’re not out of the woods yet. But we pulled out of the dive. And Obama and the Democrats did it without any help from the Republicans. Actually, it was done in spite of all the obstacles the Republicans put in the way. Not to mention, it looks like we have a good chance of getting universial health insurance. Something that hasn’t been accomplsihed in 60 years of trying.

When you hear the Republicans saying that Obama hasn’t done much, remember who it is that keeps trying to prevent him from doing much.
