When we are children, we stamp our feet and pout every time things don't go fast enough for our young minds, and we get bored easily. Everything has to be had right this second.
When we are adults, we are supposed to have grown out of that behavior to understand that patience is a virtue. "Supposed to" being the operative term here.
Never have I seen such little patience as I have the Republicans since Obama won the election.
Within one week, they were declaring Obama a failure. Within one month after taking office, they were declaring his administration a failure. Within three months, they are screaming bloody murder, stamping their feet, and throwing a fit as though their behavior is evidence that everything about him is bad.
It took them 8 years to cause the worst economic decline in the entire world since the great depression. Yet they expect an overnight turn around.
People, Bush put forth TARP with little to no qualifications on who could or should receive the money, and how it should be spent which is why the rich fat CEO's were going on expensive vacations with private jets while their companies were crashing.
Obama comes on the scene and tries to change the terms, then gets a new stimulus pkg created and sent out with harsh terms and conditions - and its working because we are now bobbing like a cork in water - and somehow you expect overnight returns.
Aren't we above this kind of thing as adults? We should be. Its time to grow up and stop acting like spoiled children.
Patience needs to be learned by the Republicans again. Apparently the Democrats already learned it. After all, the Democrats didn't run around in costumes having tea party's when Bush was busy destroying the world.
