Pud,

I agree that the coverage has been annoying across the board.

Obama's first 100 days have been significant, though. Obama has spent more in his first 100 days than George W. Bush and the Republican congress did in the entirety of Bush's first term! He has delivered on change even if the results aren't there.

His best move was relaxing mark-to-market value accounting rules. This has had a greater effect of easing the credit crunch than his entire stimulus bill.

BTW, in the circles I run in, Prime Minister John Key and his approach to economic stimulus are increasingly popular.
