Dee Evans: Were The Pundits Listening or Just Covering
The Election

BUZZFLASH GUEST COMMENTARY
by Dee Evans

I have always thought that there is a reason why it's easier to stand on the sidelines and cheer (or boo) than actually getting into the game.

It's interesting that the Huffington's, Schultz's and Maher's of the world (not to mention the Limbaugh's, Beck's and Hannity's) never want to put their money where their mouths are and actually run for an office...they just want to stand back and criticize those who do. These are some of the same people who sat around for 8 years while Bush and Cheney systematically tore this country apart and only woke up around year 6 to ask what was going on. Now they want to hound President Obama from Day 1 to try to make up for being MIA for the past decade.

Newsflash: If you wanted a shoot-first, ask questions later administration, then you should have voted for McCain/Palin. They were raring to go. Most of us voted for Barack Obama because of his promise to make thoughtful decisions and to have a steady hand in leading. Now the ADD crowd that claimed to have deplored so-called 'cowboy diplomacy' seems to want Obama to be a bull in a china shop.

Well, I've got news for you. We didn't vote to put a bull in a china shop, we voted to put a sane man in a nut house...and he is trying to fix it if only we will let him.
