If there is such a person, it is definitely not Mr. Obama. It's amazing to me that he seems to have learned nothing from his negotiating miscues in the past four years. He's been negotiating with the same people and getting beat time and time again. Doesn't he understand his opposition? He'd do much better if he actually lived up to his oratory.
Why would a supposed liberal agree to lowering Social Security benefits? But that's exactly what he is doing by promoting the 'chained CPI'. He -and we - would be much better off if he proposed to cut the defense budget. It's just about as large as it has ever been. Why are we still in Iraq and Afghanistan? Why do we need bases all over the world? Why can't he read the monthly GAO reports that continually point out defense projects that are outdated, inefficient and have a perpetually changing completion date?

I couldn't agree more. Meanwhile, my old blogging friend, I hope you have a wonderful Christmas, and all best wishes for the New Year.
