WaPo provides a followup on Edith Childs, the “We’re fired up! And ready to go!” lady who provided the Obama campaign with a rallying cry.
Mr. Obama likes telling the story at the end of his rallies to leave supporters with a tangible sense that they, too, can help bring change.
Well, somebody’s bringing some change: WaPo changed the headline from
to “A Hundred Anxious Days.”
She voted for Obama and still holds out hope for the man she calls a “people’s president,” but she’s not interested in hearing his stories about flying to Europe or fighting pirates. “I guess he’s just working his way down the list, and he’ll get to us,” she says.
Here you go, Edith. This’ll make it all better:

I wanted to read that story but it was 5 pages long! I love how she’s waiting for him to “get to us”.
That video was ridiculous last year, but a hundredfold now.

I am glad I didn’t see this last year; I almost lost it today.
I was bellering along with the rest of ‘em like a calf stuck in a barb war fence.
My President? The One?
I hardly think 100 days of self aggrandizement and doing a 24/7 campaign tour qualifies as leadership, although the MSM gets their jollies from the guy.
But, I’m with ya Edith:
WHERE’S ALL MY MONEY I WAS PROMISED, DAMMIT!
