And really, there are plenty of things to be pissed off at Obama for from both the Right and Left right now, so the need to jump to those dishonest attacks (which are standard fare around here) should be entirely unnecessary because there's plenty to criticize by actually just talking about the facts -- and that's what you've seen Coach and Lori do when criticizing him and complaining about things they don't like, but they apparently still have the ability to maintain some integrity and not fly off the deep end like some others who shall remain unnamed.
