Ok I am not in the pink today.  I feel crappy and I am disappointed. Especially  disappointed when it comes to Mr. President, the economy, the sheer state of this country.  Mr. Obama, you have been quite verbose on television this morning, but it sounds a little too much like you are mounting your re-election campaign.  We are in a recession that some say is actually a depression.  Morale? What morale?

You and your administration seem to have a lot to say but zero accountability to what is happening in this country and all the millions of people affected.

Have I lost faith in those who govern us? You betcha’. Let them try to pay for breast cancer and health care, etc on my budget. Yes I am surviving but it shouldn’t be so damn hard. I should feel like I can breathe and enjoy things.

Actions speak louder than words Mr. President.  You came to office promising a lot and touting hope.

I would say hope is in rehab by now. Or living in that tent city in Lakewood, NJ.

When I met Michelle Obama in Ardmore in March 2008, I actually was dumb enough to believe hope was more than a word.  Shame on me.

At least Obama wasn’t wearing a pink tie.

Meanwhile, the world loses a true visionary who put his money where his mouth was: Steve Jobs. R.I.P. Steve Jobs.
