Not to sound naive, but there is too much partisanship today and not enough politics..by that I mean...seeking answers to critical questions and doing something about those answers. Instead we have silly king of the mountain games and a race to make everything bigger..instead of just making what we have work better. The best example I can think of is the constant quest to legislate...make more laws...instead of simply insisting on using the ones we have. Today, Federal law has become so convoluted and gargantuan that I doubt anyone has an "understanding" of it.Nealnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3046628493283608233.post-54250396060270443622013-05-15T16:27:38.426-04:002013-05-15T16:27:38.426-04:00Obama is definitely NOT one of The Authoritarians....Obama is definitely NOT one of <a href="http://home.cc.umanitoba.ca/~altemey/" rel="nofollow">The Authoritarians</a>.<br /><br />Is he stepping in the footprints of the "Imperial President?"

The accusations of his constant campaigning while in a sense well targeted, miss the REASON for that behavior. Obama LOVES...CRAVES.....<br />REQUIRES constant adoration...the rush he gets from being on stage....and that is what he demands and pursues.....the intellectual part of the office is anathema to him. He doesn't want to be bothered with details....only the glory of being The One. That is why he brought on all the Czars and a fresh infusion of Administration staff...to do the work while he does the "marketing." <br /><br />And that is why nothing "sticks" to him. It can't. The doers are lost in the adoring crowd that he has assembled...people who will sign loyalty oaths and fall on their swords for failing him. He says he is unaware of this or that scandal..because he IS unaware...and really isn't very interested in BECOMING aware...unless it threatens his glory.Nealnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3046628493283608233.post-78769867521232088832013-05-15T10:17:00.616-04:002013-05-15T10:17:00.616-04:00" As the president distances himself from th..." As the president distances himself from the actions of “independent” figures within his administration, he’s creating a power vacuum in which lower officials behave as though anything goes.
