History has shown that those who govern without the will of the people being governed usually end up being ‘toast’.
Unfortunately that process can take a very long time to see it come to fruition.
To: kristinn
Our task is to remember that [Sen.] Harry Reid is the majority leader, not the president,
Gee, ya think they lost sight of that last year?
Oh that evil Congress, if we didn’t have that
every thing would be peachy. /s

Article is chock full of revelations by his staff about how badly Obama and the staff performed last year. It is also chock-full of excuses, denials, rationalizations and a general glossing over.
The Post oh, so wants their boy to be perceived as a success.

Yes, and this sounds like classic Obama - he’s campaigning again. “Forget my record folks - we have a jim dandy new and improved approach for the rest of my time in office. My past mistakes are not important. I can’t really say it’s Bush’s fault anymore so I’ve zeroed in on Harry Reid and those evil uncooperative Republicans.”

a more executive-focused presidency Sounds like Zero is going to use a lot of ink signing Executuve Orders.

It is true that Hairy Reed is not president. Valerie Jarret is.
To: kristinn
In summary, Obama needs to get his head out of his ass.

This regime is arrogant, naïve, and incompetent.
That is a dangerous combination.

The new approach comes after weeks of internal White House debate over a single question: What went wrong in 2013? A bunch of American Patriots decided we're not gonna take anymore, THAT'S what happened.
Wonder what the meetings will be like next year with nobama the only RAT left standing?

Democrats are a pathetic lot. They cannot understand what went wrong in 2013, because they can’t.
