Let them do what they will. From my perspective, they have a shovel in their hands and they are digging their own graves.

But then again. I'm just as stupid as Obama is. Everyone else is so much smarter and knows better.

I have come to the conclusion that it is absolutely absurd for people to think that they know better than Obama how to navigate upstream through treacherous waters. He's only been doing that all of his life. All his life.

It is amusing to me to watch republicans take credit for refusing to help fix a disaster. Not only are they owning it, but they are bragging about it glee.

So sorry their misguided glee is upsetting so many DUers. When Bush was in office, everyone here castigated the media. Now that Obama is in, when I click on DU, all I see are media memes. The media tells people what Americans think about something (as if they know) and people here use it as proof of their doubts.

I think Obama's strategy is very very long-term, even while he struggles to get something done right now. A lot of people would rather have revenge than to be placed on a good sound footing for the future.
