Not really. I'm not trying to say she's a member of the Klan. But, as yolland said (better than I), when someone has to start a statement, with something like "I'm not racist but," or something similar that tends to mean they do have some sort of prejudicial tendency or belief they don't want to admit to. When one has to put a clause like that in there, they clearly know what they're about to say is offensive and/or wrong, so they try to pass it off as not being so.

I seriously think he is doing a great job. I don't think I've seen a President work harder. I'm a supporter, higher taxes or not.
Yay! |

I still feel like I'm in a dream sometimes. We have an honest, thoughtful president that interacts regularly with the American people, and is genuinely doing his best to stay connected to the world around him. Novel. He's accomplished more in 3 months than Bush did in 8 years.

Not even close. The more substantial and beneficial accomplishments usually take much longer than that. Its early and Obama is still far behind other Presidents as he should be after less than 3 months in office when it comes to accomplishments.

In the past couple of months, Obama certainly has taken more steps I approve of than Bush has in eight years.

If by "accomplish" we're using a definition that means 'ruining everything one touches' than yes, Bush was far more "accomplished". If we're using the definition that means making careful, logical, and rational decisions that will actually benefit our country and the rest of the world, then, yes, Obama has already accomplished more in 3 months than Bush did in 8 years. I don't recall W. ever making one of those.

The handling of Afghanistan and disruption of Al Quaida is one of those tactical things of beauty that people are willing to ignore just because they don't agree with Iraq. But, a hell of an accomplishment nonetheless.
