It would be an understatement to say that things weren't peachy when Obama took over the White House. Not only was the country bankrupt from a pointless and ongoing war, but the financial crisis that resulted from the subprime mortgage mess and the runaway out-of-control investment was already causing increasing levels of unemployment from which we have not yet recovered. Add to this all the corrupt politicians who have sold their souls in exchange for corporate and lobbying money (not to mention those stubborn politicians bent on ideological extremism), and it's not much of a surprise to see how little has been accomplished.Obama inherited some epic problems, the roots of which extend back beyond the ineptitude of his immediate predecessor, and there's a lot of work to be done and corruption to defeat, so it's quite fortunate that Obama was recently visited by the ghosts of administrations past with some encouraging words of wisdom and one horny Bill Clinton :)
And yes, Reagan is already planning a comeback from the grave...
