Relax, lefties!

For the last week or so, there have been no shortage of leftie blogs (examples here) complaining about how Obama supposedly hasn’t been throwing “any bones” to the “progressive movement” in terms of his cabinet/admin staff picks.

While I’d disagree with that assessment, I’d just like to remind the left to remain calm, and remember what Vice President-elect Joe Biden cautioned us about a couple of weeks before the election:

“And he’s gonna need help. And the kind of help he’s gonna need is, he’s gonna need you – not financially to help him – we’re gonna need you to use your influence, your influence within the community, to stand with him. Because it’s not gonna be apparent initially, it’s not gonna be apparent that we’re right.”

In other words lefties, give Barry Oh! the full four years to work his “mandate” magic before you start assessing whether or not his decisions have been right or wrong. You’ve already given him a pass for the last two years full of misleading statements and lies that have come from both him and his campaign, so what’s another four years added to that?
