  Thank you Mr. Bleifuss,

  
  You’ve summed up a difficult yet pragmatic point beautifully.

  I love my country because it rises from the ashes and I don’t mean Phoenix…rather, Chi-town Chicago, and Barack Obama.

  At heart I believe he will have the integrity to not just propose bold policies, I believe he will exercise the appropriate “deliberate haste” that must become due diligence during his term.

  Having said this however I’m on edge awaiting his second full surge of independance and progressive thought.  His first-in my opinion-was the way he expressed himself regarding Gitmo and torture.  Not necessarily an easy thing to do.

  I’ll be watching forever grateful for such an inspiring moment given the last eight years.  But no reason to go out of business “In These Times”, your value is priceless to me.

  Peace Out….
