"but he's a damn good start."

Okay, I won't contest your opinion, but I'd like for you or Miss Marple or someone , anyone , to tell me how he has started.
We still have the same number of liberal judges sitting on the benches, we still have the same march toward socialism in our public school system, we are still not allowed to put God back into our public lives, we are still shackled by the PC crap that is strangling our First Amendment rights, we're still battling a daily war to retain our Second Amendment rights, we're on a one step at a time basis toward socialized medicine, we have a real unemployment rate of 12.4% and we still have a border policy that is innundating this country with illegal immigrants.
Now, please, tell me how he's made a good start!
