Omniquity

Excellent opinion piece on the dilemmas Obama has faced and the poor options available from which to choose. Obama has not done himself any favors with some of the choices he’s made but the cruelest aspect of all this is that most of the problems stem from the Bush presidency and the near complete intransigence of the Republicans to cooperate with a Democratic president to solve them.

The drumbeat for a one-term presidency is now beginning to develop a rhythm. While I have been very disappointed with Obama’s term to date, the thought of any of the Republican candidates taking office in 2013 is almost too chilling to contemplate. Obama needs a major rally and it can’t begin too soon.
