maddarlike- I'm unhappy with his decisions too, at least on environmental issues and to a lesser extent, the health care reform debate. In terms of the environment, I'm disappointed that his administration has included offshore drilling and "clean coal" (which, I'm sorry to say, Mr. President, DOES NOT exist) in the energy plan. I'm working on a letter regarding the former, and have yet to hear anything about the latter. Regarding health care, I'm disappointed we didn't get the public option, or something close to it, in the final health care reform bill, but I suppose something is better than nothing :/. I'll still vote for him in the 2012 election, but unless he changes his mind on some of these things, it'll be with reservations :[.

Erica- you make a good point. He may not be the enormous force for change we hoped he'd be, but he's a million times better than what the alternative would have been ***Shivers***.
