Obama may have got off on a slow start but that's only because we are really, really impatient.

Well, be glad with what you have. Imagine what would be the situation if John McCain was the prez & Sarah Palin the vice-prez. And Obama's intentions are really good-he really wants to bring about a change, but it's not as easy as we think.

The name "Sarah Palin" itself is enough convincing.

Yeah, Sarah's gone way the hell down in my book.
Waaay down.
How he's dealing with the pirate situation bugs me.
Arrogant - see DVD's and plastic helicopters in exchange for a piece of the sister ship of the HMS Resolute, among others.

What would you suggest be done about the pirates?
I don't see why people are making such a big deal about the gifts given by either side..

Sarah's not even in my book. She's in the magazine which I wipe with. (Obscure Bartimaeus reference)

Ah, nice.
And, I no longer have anything to complain about in that respect, I just wish they did what they did sooner.
Delays annoy me.
I think that fair soon, we're going to be more none partisan than now, I know a lot of people who are tired of the far-right and left.

Yeah, it's the pity the country is facing so many problems now. I really like Thailand. I hope the people protest peacefully. I hate violent protests-people who take part in it have no right to oppose the policies of others. And peaceful protests are always more effective.

Buddhism is the true Emo religion. Just look at its first noble truth:
"Life as we know it ultimately is or leads to suffering in one way or another."
It also provides a way out of suffering.
