Good grief....we seem to be bi-polar.  At one point, we are swept up in the euphoria of THE OBAMA's anointment, and the next we are in the depths of despair over our economy.  Enough with the end-of-the-year lists....what went RIGHT this year?  Gee, we seem to be winning the hearts and minds of the Iraqis.....while employment creeps up, more of us are employed than ever before...we aren't paying $7 a gallon as most economists predicted at the beginning of the year.  We aren't the British....grow some and be thankful and hopeful for what we have.
