I have another piece up over at Pajamas Media, this morning. Here’s a taste:
You see, while the numbers suggest that there has been no president since Richard Nixon or — depending on how you judge these things — Harry Truman who has left office with a lower approval rating, I dare to suggest that Mr. Bush is going to be vindicated over the next four years by President Obama himself. Vindicated not in rhetoric, since left wing rhetoric is always and forever vitriolic against any successful Republican. No, Bush will be vindicated thanks to the policies sure to be adopted by Mr. Obama and the Democrat-run Senate, House, and State Dept.

BO uses every available opportunity to take gratuitous cheap shots at Dubya. BO certainly doesn’t want another terrorist attack. Yet among the first actions of BO was to move the country in the direction of the failed Clinton strategy. BO has trapped himself between. The policies which work to keep the nation safe and the demands of the rabid left. While BO does not want another terror attack on our soil for obvious political reason, the leftards might be of a different mind.

Well, I wonder if you’re not suggestinga degree of seperation that isn’t there. Understand; Given his druthers, I’ve no doubt that Obama would like to go hard leftist on this and many other subjects. However, as the piece indicates, I think he recognizes he’s limited by both political and functional reality.
PAW, there’s no seperation in terms of desire, between the hard left and Obama. Where there is seperation is that Obama’s a bit closer to the fire, and thus has a better guage of how hot the thing is, than do his supporters.
And I wonder if that isn’t going to be a major source of disappointent to the former.
