Um, he is just now finding THAT?! I sorta figured, at least to hear him
and the
FOO (Friends Of Obama) fighters tell it while he was running for Prez,
that he
not only had the easy **** like that figured out, but all of the hard
****,
too...

I don't know who you heard that from, but rather suspect that you IMPLIED
that. Hell, Obama hisownself admitted that the process wouldn't be easy. How
could someone misconstrue that?

Er, "the process" is going to be that much harder if he just now figuring out
stuff like a moral bar laying on the floor ain't all that high...

Well, sure...but I'm pretty sure that Obama won't be appointing very many
wealthy Republican supporters to his cabinet...

not that the odds would improve, if he did, but perhaps the accounting might
get murkier......At any rate, it was damned refreshing to hear a POTUS
admit, on the public airwaves, "I screwed up on this one".

Well, the, um, "good" news is that it is beginning to appear that you may be
regularly refreshed...

In all seriousness though, while it might seem that such refreshment is a good
thing (and hopefully, only a small serving is necessary), it is potentially a
VERY dangerous drink. While the domestic political "weakness" implied in such a
punch might only be dangerous relative to domestic politics, leaders publicly
admitting "screw-ups" is not something one needs to be serving to guests, and
especially not something one would want to serve to foreign enemies.

Compare and
contrast, if you will, to his predecessor, who screwed up with alarming
frequency, and seemingly, to this day cannot admit it to himself, let alone
the general public.
