Day 18. Obama gets schooled.

Obama has showed us his inexperience and naivety. He appears to have no standing or gravitas as president. This is a hard lesson--the inner workings of the beltway. Perhaps it would have helped if he spent more time in the state legislature and US senate. He is trying to ram this bill down our throats--a bill he tossed to Nancy and Harry which the porked up even more. It seems that Nancy and Harry are sacrificing the historic president to make this bill their own. They have gotten O to ratchet up the rhetoric and verbal arm twisting, doing Nancy and Harry's dirty work...nice move by them. Quite frankly, he looks like a spoiled three year old throwing a tantrum. I thought he was supposed to be a unifier. Wasn't he going to pull the troops out of Iraq? Suckers.

Charles Krauthammer has a nice column on what he calls the 'awakening'.

So the senate has reached a compromise, great. I just hope the republicans will hold strong like they did in the house.
