He went from being all talk to doing a lot. Which is it?
You are an Australian living in Thai, so I don't expect you to to have a first-hand knowledge, but you don't need to criticize EVERYTHING, do you?
Did some people have bigger expectations? Well, not really...it's only been less than 5% of his first term
Did some people have lower expectations? Of course. And they criticize the way he steps off a plane. No president had been more scrutinized than Obama, especially before he has even been in office 80 days, but he is handling it like a champ. Bush got into office and immediately went on vacation. No one gave a crap.
It is obviously a new generation.
