The Screwing of Obama
President Obama is in a unique and very uncomfortable position. I believe he is the only one in Washington who is interested in solving the country's problems. He has a plenty of problems to solve after the eights years of misrule by Bush and Cheney. Whether the destruction caused by them was deliberate or happened through incompetence (or a combination of both) is a mute point; Obama has to fix these problems. (see blog pos thttp://hankquense.com/blog/?p=1090 for more on this topic)
Unfortunately, the Republicans in Congress see the problems as an opportunity to discredit the President and they have no intention of helping him, no matter how desperate the situation in the country becomes. Their only interest is winning back the White House and if they have to wreck the country to do, so be it.
As for the Democrats in Congress, they have no leadership to organize a defense against the Republican onslaught. Pelosi and Reed useless as leaders and exemplify the difference between leadership and being in-charge. It's mind boggling to me that, after getting routed in the 2010 elections, the Democrats re-elected Pelosi and Reed, their "leaders" who managed to fiasco of the 2010 election.
Under these trying circumstances, Obama fights to improve the country by himself; the Republicans oppose everything he tries to do, and the Democrats are too inept to help.
