No Insouciant Bumbler

Early in Barack Hussein Obama's first term as President I contended that he was making numerous blunders. Obama was, but they were not mistakes caused by deviating from the course that he wanted to take the country. Obama was simply moving too fast in some instances, and this overreach made it seem to some that Obama would not achieve his objectives. The President has taken a center-right country to the left faster than his opponents could have imagined because the national Republican Party is weak-willed, not organized to resist Obama, and filled with Republicans in name only in positions of leadership. Instead of being a stumbling block to the radical transformation of America, the GOP has been a doormat.
