Obama's Report Card

Nicholas Kristof has always been one of my favorite editorial writers. Not overtly political in nature, but rather a defender of rational thought and the untold story. He draws attention to issues that the mainstream media often glances over or ignores. However, this is an example of a more traditional piece that he writes. I am an Obama fan. I'll give that away, but someone who can't criticize their political figure will tend to go toward extremes saying, "he's a complete and total failure" and, "he's a GOD!!!". Neither is healthy. Kristof gives a very good bit here in his report card for Barack Obama.
