I am also not one of the ones who despises Obama.  He is what he is.

Diplomacy, maybe, I'm not convinced.  I see it as his diplomacy and entire 
handling of foreign affairs as off in a random direction, not opposite 
Bush's.  We're adrift now as far as policy and stance.  

But you know, I have to ask myself, what should be done now?  The only 
answer I come up with is that it doesn't really matter at this point.  '"The 
die 
is cast!"  

Did you have occasion (children in the family) to see Disney's "The 
Emperor's New Groove"??   Pacha (John Goodman) and Cuzco (David Spade) are 
tied to 
a log floating on a river thinking they have escaped the worst danger.  
Pacha gasps and Cuzco quits whining just long enough to ask, 

"Water all up ahead?"
"Yup."
"Lots of sharp rocks at the bottom?"
"Most likely."
"Bring it on!"

That's where we are right now.  Too many people have thought we passed our 
worst danger when we ditched Bush for Obama.  But there's a waterfall up 
ahead.

Bring it on.
