This is our President's video address to the Net-roots convention. If you are a staunch "conservative" these accomplishments will probably make you upset. Otherwise you'll probably be pleasantly surprised. It's a "I'm afraid that every bit of legislation passed by Democrats is a Communist plot to take away my guns, bible, and money!" vs a "hmmm... all this legislation is slight improvements but in most cases protects the beholden interest of the status quo" sort of thing.
I look at many of these accomplishments and feel a nagging "yeah but many of these things are only half-done" kind of feeling. But then I remember how difficult it actually is to get things even half done in Washington. "Change I can believe in?" I guess so. I see it, so I believe it.
