I'll admit it. I voted for Obama and thought he was the Chosen One. Man was I wrong. Looks like I voted for this generation's Jimmy Carter which kind of makes sense since Carter was elected to wash away the memories of Watergate. Obama was elected to make everyone forget the Bush years.
Here are links which are much better at explaining the depths of my disappointment.
Enjoy.
If that is the word.
Opinion: What Happened to Obama? (The New York Times)
The Tragedy of the Obama Administration. (The Big Picture)
The Man Behind the Curtain. Realizing our leaders are vulnerable children inside adult bodies, just like us via Abnormal Returns. (The Reformed Broker)
Thanks to Alana Heller for this link: The Myth of Obama's "blunders" and "weakness" (Salon.com) The main argument Glenn Greenwald makes is nobody with Obama's intelligence can be this monstrously bad a negotiator.
Obama had one shot with stimulus to save the economy. He blew it (The Big Picture)
