This isn't so much news as something humorous. Chris Wallace was on O'Reily last night discussing Obama's round on the Sunday news shows. Apparently he prety much hit every one, including a spanish news channel, but skipped Fox. Wallace had this to say about the current White House -

I post this because, quite honestly, looking back over the last nine months, I'm really not that impressed with Obama and his administration. Even though I didn't vote for the guy, I was kind of pumped about the ideas of bipartisanship and "bridging the divide" and transparency. However I don't feel as if I've seen any of this from the current administration - it feels kinda same-old same-old to me. I also feel as though both the far left and far right are angrier now than they ever were. I caught Mayer last night and was surprised at how angry and mean and denigrating his comments were regarding some of his fellow Americans, specifically the older generations who are leery of Obama's policies. It feels as if the current political divide has widened significantly over the last year, and it's not a one sided division. If this keeps up where will we be in three years?
So what say you SoWal, how is Obama's administration doing, are you seeing what you were hopeful for or are you disappointed about the progress we've made? If not, who do you blame?
