>Yes, they are. But I do not blame that on Obama.

I've decided to go easy on Barack. He's given me great humor and great reasons to brag. I've completely dealt with my personal anger over a president who thinks it's bad for the national economy to have parents staying at home to raise kids.

On the humor side, he met with a woman who sat in a tub of Fruit Loops, while Yemen's leader experienced a coup, and while Saudi Arabia's king died. That's quite an accomplishment.

But it gets even funnier. He wants to pay for his community college idea by double taxing (drum roll) college savings plans. Now THAT'S a great magic trick. I'll be able to say I put two kids through college, even though I only have Katy.

This is all even better than the famous SNL skit from 1979 when Dan Akroyd did the Jimmy Carter impression and smiled, "Think of inflation, as our friend". :)
