Really? Really?!
I'll give you that the stimulus bill had a lot of extras (see pork) on it and maybe didn't tackle the issues of the problem as well as many had hoped.
But really?
You're already judging on two months? A problem many many MANY years in the making, a previous administration that was easily one of the WORST in it's country's history, a whole host of problems right down to the culture and thinking of the country and the people within it. And you were hoping for more (apparently a LOT more) from one guy in two months?
Wow. Just... wow...
As you yourself have said, it's going to take a lot more than the president anyway. There needs to be a whole clean up in Washington, and as I mentioned, the country itself could do with a good scrub too. From Wall Street to Main Street. People are greedy, lazy, and stupid.
If you're disappointed now I'd hide the meds and stay away from the bridges. It's going to get worse, guaranteed. You could put the best leaders in history there, you could put a superhero or God in his place and it's going to get worse.
He's not failing, it's was going to be like this no matter who was there. The old admin got out in the nick of time and whomever replaced them was going to be having serious problems out of the gate.
Let's see what's going to happen with the housing bill, and the other bills coming down the pipe. Let's give the guy a year at least. Holy smokes. Don't let your bias get in the way of giving things a chance.
