I too loved Richard Blanco's soaring poem that sought to unite the country with reminding us of our day to day common experiences and how we are all connected.

Words are important I will admit but bringing them to action are another thing altogether and I don't see where the senate and the house are going to become less obstructionist. I didn't hear McConnell say he would work with this administration (matter of fact I didn't even see McConnell there).<br /><br />Time will tell he has nothing to lose and maybe he will realize that a majority of people in this country are fighting for their livelihoods as well as their lives. Not lives of plenty but just simple lives where bills get paid and houses remain homes, where children all over the land can go to school and politics takes a back seat to the needs of the nation. <br /><br />I am not giving up on this president but Obama is far to centrist for most of them who voted for him, now we shall see if he can accomplish something in the street fight called American Politics.the walking manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10058913927297370740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904990175885851041.post-90507130607567475962013-01-22T07:10:28.164-05:002013-01-22T07:10:28.164-05:00That is one of the beautiful things about our coun...That is one of the beautiful things about our country.
