>That's his real problem here. If he somehow gets it done with so many people opposing it and finding glee is every hiccup, he can have a career as a magician after leaving office.

Barack Obama and many of his supporters have elevated this knee-jerk reaction of victim status to a new level.

They blame nearly every mistake, every issue on his opponents.

It's interesting that his supporters remind everyone of his two major victories by wide margins - yet also blame his failures on his opposition. That's a rather untenable combination.

Daily Beast Columnist Kirsten Powers, herself a mild liberal who has been an Obama fan for years, recently stated that she's stunned by an "astonishing level of incompetence". I say, "ditto" I continue to stand by what I said earlier - nearly every action that has come out of the White House in the last 12 months has been a giant middle finger to the working middle and lower-middle class.
