Not bad for one week
With what Obama has done in his first week, both in the people he has appointed and the orders he has issued, there is the opinion that he has restored the constitution, repudiated Bush's philosophy of government, and administered the antidote to Cheney's poisonous work. Yes, it will take time for the antidote to take effect. There is a great deal of what is wrong today that can be traced back to the flaunting of the rule of law. The nation has veered so far from that rule of law for so long that Obama's efforts are flying under the radar and some believe Hillary would not have recognized that this type of fix was needed. Will Gitmo close? It must. The legal framework has shifted enough that soon it can't exist.
