Obama likes it low-key -no drama -just get things done. He has already met with the Governors and wants transparency for any funds that are given to the states. We will get safe bridges, safe and better schools, lots of goodies for our state and our children. Now we have to have better laws to put rapists and pedophiles away for LIFE .Lets hear more about those issues and less about gays and abortion rights!! Rapists and pedophiles are killers of the spirit and souls' of the victims. I think he should stay in the background. Obama likes it low-key -no drama -just get things done.

If he can make that happen again, we ought to change the Constitution and bring him back! I could care less about Lewinsky, a woman, not a child, who set him up (he's not blameless, but he never allowed torture, either, nor had 5,000 of our servicepeople killed and thousands more maimed, not to mention 100,000 dead Iraqis and millions of displaced Iraqis.) Bush has committed crimes against humanity and should have been impeached, but for Pelosi's complicity in allowing torture...she doesn't want that to come out, so won't allow hearings.

The other is like an illness... they simply seem unable to resist. No one can say that he is not intelligent and qualified for any role he might play in the administration directly or indirectly. I'm sure the financial disclosure is no problem for either Clintons. Even in the Republican witch hunt that proved only that he was an unfaithful husband, NOTHING was proved against Bill Clinton. Bush is the one who should be impeached... right along with Cheney.. but it will never happen. The republicans have teflon skin... and the Media aids them in this feat.

I have mixed feelings about former president Clinton involved in the new administration. Unlike most Republicans I know, I can give him credit where credit is due. During his eight years I thought he was a great president and accomplished much. Unlike most Democrats, I am ashamed of how he left office, and certainly understand Republican anger on that point. He could bring alot of unwanted baggage to what otherwise may be a very promising administration. I'm mystified as to why so many Republicans have already decided PE Obama will do nothing but run the country the rest of way into the ground. It seems we gave Bush two terms and obviously, the majority of Americans, Republican and Democrat (all but a small core of die-hard conservatives), believe he was not a good leader and did not take the country in the right direction. For goodness sakes, give our new man a chance. We've had good, great and poor presidents of both parties. Why castigate and criticize PE Obama when he hasn't even begun serving the nation? Had we done that at the outset of the Reagan years or Clinton years wouldn't we look sillly now? I'm a registered democrat but very close to the center.

I wonder how anyone can criticize a past president that presided over one of the most prolific periods in American history in terms of finance. the Clinton era was filled with EMPLOYMENT, BALANCED BUDGETS, LEAPS IN TECHNOLOGY AND OVERALL PROSPERITY FOR MORE PEOPLE THAN EVER BEFORE. as far as I'm concerned they should have left him in office. Just think about what life would be like if we had not elected BUSH! who cares who Clinton slept with, wouldn't you all prefer it if bush had slept with an intern instead of bankrupting the country both financially and internationally. We all need to buy into the rebirth of this country under the leadership of a man who has risen up to lead us, let's face it, people's confidence and attitude matter more than anything, so let's stay positive and remember what makes this country the greatest on earth, our freedom, which has been sorely compromised by the current guy in office, hopefully we can make it to jan 20th without further Bush errors. reading the comments is like taking a trip across the US, everyone has

The change is getting Bush, probably the worst president in history, and his failed administration out. Obama is surrounding himself with smart people who know what they are doing and will give him great advice but ultimately he will set policy decisions.
