The misguided hopes and aspirations of the Left

The misguided hopes and aspirations of the Left with the Obama Administration

The fallacy in this political phenomena is that there is neither a political tsunami of consensual votes in the Congress to push through his programs, and Obama does not have and there is no longer a person in Congress, as LBJ was, who has the... powers of political extortion to autocratically have his way in the byzantine machinations of Capitol Hill.

Thus the Obama Administration ends up being feckless with posturing gestures that show little conviction in their rhetoric or action.
