Now they will advertise how they will fix this, and everybody will cheer, and BO will get a snow cone. BO only talks to the blacks and gays anyways.

It is NY Magazine, here is the crucial quote:

“The more pointed variant of this critique was directed specifically at Obama. Unlike 42—who loved to stay up late, jabbing at the speed dial, spending countless hours gabbing with local pols and businesspeople around the country to gauge the political wind and weather—44 not only eschewed reaching out to governors, mayors, or CEOs, but he rarely consulted outside the tiny charmed circle surrounding him in the White House. “What you had was really three or four people running the entire government,” says the former White House strategist. “I thought they put a pretty good Cabinet together, but most of those guys might as well be in the witness-protection program.”

A funny line, no doubt, but an overstatement, surely? Well, maybe not. “I happen to know most of the Cabinet pretty well, and I get together with them individually for lunch,” says one of the most respected Democratic bigwigs in Washington. “I’ve had half a dozen Cabinet members say that in the first two years, they never had one call—not one call—from the president.”

same kind of work he did as a State Senator in Illinois.
He was, is, and ever will be, an absentee legislator

Remember, the same Clinton posse that is now taking down zero also gave us Waco.

We’re almost out of the frying pan into the fire, if we don’t watch real close.

Gibbs has a 'lock on' jaw for this kind of 'side-swipe' response. So typical as to have his name on it. The framing requires no subtance; just a doubleblind hit at opponents. And as if this double but half-assed response is enough; no one challenges him.

There is no 'man in the mirror' when Gibbs walks by one.

One blog copping material from another blog does not belong in the main news forum.

They can say whatever they want about Bush, it is much better than Jarrett and Michelle making policy.
