So the little secret this weekend is how Obama stormed Baltimore and dragged out an old dying elephant by the ears all across the floor with TV cameras rolling.
This surely is Obama we can believe in!!
A few weeks ago I had vented (off course here) about the need for the president to call out his detractors. In the dairy, I think I spent more time arguing with someone who felt that the best thing the president could do was to remain passive, nonchalant and leave the floor to his detractors.
I am happy that the presidents people think like me. His performance in the past few days, the feisty SOTU address tells me that the president is not going to allow lies to bury truth. For it is eqaully true that if truth is not allowed to confront lies then lies become the truth.
This is Obama we can believe in!
So my question is after the president has been to the lions (elephants) den, when do we see the republican leadership; John Boehner, anyone, appear before his democratic colleagues to answer questions or maybe before the media (fox news included and not the only news media) to defend whatever proposals they have put forth?
