I'm very pleased that he had such a productive and positive first week. At the same time I'm sad that he had to plan his first week UNDOING so much of the crap Bush did in his 8 years. He's still undoing it. At least he's following through on some of his promise of "change," because he's shown that he's willing to reverse so much of Bush's policies. That's who we voted for.
Now we have to make sure we don't get lazy and be ready to hold him accountable when he does something wrong.
