Tonight, President Barack Obama will go before TV cameras and will deliver his first substantial report to the nation. He should stay home and go to bed. Here is more of what I think:
Despite Obama’s presence in the White House, spring will come. Yes it will. In several months, despite all of his misbegotten and self-absorbed approaches to governance, we will be able to go out into the warmth of the spring sunshine and see nature awaken from its winter slumber.
We will be able, once more, to watch the buds bloom; to coax our gardens into fresh growth; to make do with what we have – that which has not yet been taken away from us by the mismanagement of the boys and girls inside the Beltway. Yes, we can.
And there – in that eternal yearning for a spring that always comes – is where we will find the genuine hope and change that we can truly believe in.
