A day after celebrating his historic inauguration, President Barack Obama spent his first full day in office instituting policies that “represent a clean break from business as usual.”
The Obama administration announced salary freezes for White House employees making over $100,000 a year, placed new limits on lobbyists’ White House access and had aides circulate a draft executive order that would close the detention center at Guantanamo Bay within a year.
Now, I don’t know about closing “Gitmo” but he’s doing good for the first day on the job.
Okay, I know I like to dream big.
To this day, I still believe that in order to stimulate the economy, car manufactures and housing markets, you have got to put some big dollars into the hands of the American People.

New and Improved with Comment Luv and Other Stuff.
I’m writing this while experiencing a bad cold. (The whole 9 yards..fever, sore throat, coughing and sinuses.)
So you might have noticed a few changes.
Yeah, I gave The Daily Bragger a makeover. I’m one of those people that love to create and update things. I’m never satisfied with what I create and I’m always improving things.
One of the major changes I made was adding a little popup when you first load this site. Don’t worry, you shouldn’t see this again for a while. It’s to help me combat comment spam. I was getting a lot of spam after I wrote about allowing search engines to “follow” the links in the comments. I had everything from Viagra to reciepes from Mougdishu. So you’ll see the popup once and then never again, unless I have some breaking news or opinion.
Another BIG improvement is that I am using Comment Luv. Comment Luv is an application that I’m using in the comment section of my blog. If you have a blog and you leave a comment, Comment Luv will link to your last post. Give it a try.
Thanks to my Stimulus Check post, I have been getting major traffic to this site. I’m hoping that Obama and Capitol Hill will build on my idea. (How else are we going to save the auto industry from certain plight.)
So what do you think?
Do you like the new look? What do you think about the popup and Comment Luv?
