Based on my recollection of the campaign, here are some expectations of Obama's first 100 days.

  • Troops out of Iraq
  • US friends with all other countries
  • Close the Gitmo terrorist holding facility
  • Government paid mortgages and free gasoline (according to Peggy Joseph)
  • Focus on war in Afganistan
  • Increase transparency and accountability in Washington
  • Eliminate America's use of coal
  • Stop Earth's temperature from rising
  • Kill Bin Laden
  • End partisanship in Washington
  • Stop oceans from rising
  • Lower unemployment
  • Increase value of investments (i.e stock market)
  • Lower taxes

Day 23. Wag the dog.

Plenty of manufacturing jobs in Washington. In a brilliant move (rivaling the Bill Clinton drama when he made a cross out of some stones on Omaha Beach in Normandy), the Obama Administration seems to have manufactured a similar moment with a woman (who's name is now of the household variety as this article put it) named Henrietta Hughes. That does not quite have the same ring as Joe the Plumber, but with the media's help it might.

Maybe Henrietta could get over to New Orleans and find some of the Katrina housing that has gone unused.

PS. Your blogger is checking to see if Henrietta knows Peggy Joseph.

The Portuguese Water Dog are wonderful pets, their curly hairs are so handsome and they are good for allergic people. A good choice for the Obama family, now some questions remain: male or female, how will they call it?
