I don't know about you, but I'm really frustrated by the pace of change since Democrats have taken control in Washington. I remember when Obama said of his first term: "If I haven't gotten combat troops out of Iraq, passed universal health care and created a new energy policy that speaks to our dependence on foreign oil and deals seriously with global warming, then we've missed the boat." Right now all these issues seem to be in a giant holding pattern and the rest of the progressive agenda waits in the wings (DADT, closing Gitmo, executive privilege... to name but a few).
I'm tired of banging my head against the wall (just because it feels good when you stop, that's not good reason to keep doing it...), so I've been looking hard and long for positive steps to take here and now.
I've finally found something with an immediate positive impact today.
