But so far he's promised everything and the kitchen sink, and nothing's sticking. Same thing with health care... the "WE HAVE TO FIX IT NOW" mentality, and there is no consensus even among Dems on how to do it.
The more he speeds through his goals the more damage he is going to cause along the way.
Are you all serious not worried by the record debt we now have? RECORD DEBT. This crisis wasn't caused by Bush. It was caused by borrowing more than we could pay for. And that sort of behavior is getting more and more serious.

Not worried about the dept, it's not real.. I can make my company be 100 billion in debt too, it's really easy. Or I could do something like.. for every 1 hour of work I do for you, I will charge you my rate, but on your books you put double the rate. That way, I "appear" to be in debt to you, but I really paid you.
And why not get healthcare going? It took Canada like 15 years or something for them to Iron it out. I would "never" expect, even if the best person in the world was running, to get healthcare off the ground, perfectly or even half ass good.
Speeding it up.. gets the ball going quicker so the bugs can be dealt with quicker.
