As an English major and a person who's traveled extensively, I am delighted to hear President Obama honor the English language instead of butchering it.
HuffPost bloggers give Obama their marks on foreign policy, national security, climate change, technology policy, GLBT issues, labor, political strategy, and much, much more.
A misplaced priority on profits over human health in the context of a globalized world led to this epidemic and the looming possibility that it will now become the world's latest pandemic.
I have traveled to Washington many times since President Obama took office, and each time I go, I am struck by the action-oriented and economics-driven tone he has set for clean energy and global warming policy.
As it is ridiculous for pundits to chastise President Obama for "doing too much" when there is much to do, we progressives must also be able to walk and chew gum simultaneously.
Everywhere there is the obvious, almost pained, inability to criticize Obama on his first hundred days. Here's the reasonable question to ask of a person who is universally loved: Is he a fake?
This is why I say these people don't understand the whole concept behind America. In our system of government, the president is not supposed to be above the law.

Obama's ambitions depend on his ability to nudge the news cycle away from the cable network- and Drudge-driven obsession with transient panics and cultural outrages. He's been partially successful so far.
Having a 60-vote filibuster-proof Senate for the president changes the dynamic entirely for Obama's Supreme Court nominee selections, and it changes it in his favor.
I'm reasonably certain that historians will peg the legacy of the president's first 100 days based partly upon this contrast between the crazy and the calm.
Spain and the United Kingdom have already initiated investigations of Bush administration officials over torture -- to continue to ignore the mounting evidence of clear wrongdoing is a national humiliation.
Many of us -- patients and physicians alike -- have been thinking about the influenza virus for about a week. Public health officials like the teams at the CDC that I visited yesterday have been thinking about it for years.
Once upon a time, our adversaries knew they could hoist the white flag and expect to be treated humanely, making them more likely to give up sooner. It kept American soldiers out of countless bloody fights.
In a move that stunned both political allies and foes alike, President Barack Obama resigned today after serving 100 days in office, telling the White House press corps, "It's all downhill from here."
A truth commission would use the law as a compass, and its only goal would be to restore order in America. As Barbara Herbert wrote, "We need a chance for secular redemption and healing."
Nobody expects the administration to right the world economy in a day, but what it can do is make sure each who is owed gets his fair share of the pie.
