Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass; it's about learning to dance in the rain.

... Don't Know; He's Still Pointing That Finger,"
It's funny how we all interpret things differently. I just meant it to mean "I don't know; he's still talking, working, trying, moving along.; we'll just have to wait and see....whatever." :-) Pointing his finger for emphasis when he talks is his least attractive characteristic and a very condescending gesture. I interpret it that way, because I've had three people in my life that pointed their fingers at other people when they were being "emphatic" about something. I automatically go into a negative mode. My first husband was so bad about it, I used to grab his finger and hang on until he begged me to let go. I had a wonderful grip. :-) My daughter-in-law shook her finger in my face one time, because she didn't like the way I was holding her baby, and I just looked at her and quietly said "if you know what's good for you, you'll never do that again."

Then I voted the right choice in your poll for my take on matters at this point.
I voted the same, even if it is my poll. We can't change our votes. I set it up to last only a week. Will refresh it when I can. I always want to know other peoples' take on things.
Ah "the pointing finger flits and having flit, moves on!" Okay...I know that was bad.
Hi Dot:
I think it is still too early to come up with any valid evaluation of Obama's performance. If one had to go by just what his legacy would be from the time in office so far, there would be no legacy at all. I do not perceive that the Obama administration has actually accomplished anything so far.
With one exception. The policies of the Obama administration have substantially improved the opinions of the US around the globe.
In fact according to the Pew Global Attitudes Project, global opinions about the U.S. have improved dramatically in almost every country surveyed.
There are several other interesting charts at Pew in this article.

Where did we have to go but up? Some of those chart numbers were pretty impressive.
Sadly that is the truth. There was no where to go BUT up from the bottom.
The changes in the German population and in UK 86% was a major change.
How long will they last. when the "honeymoon" is over? :-)
