From this June 19, 2010 article in the Guardian, written by one who used to worship Obama:
...I did not think it possible, but our President Obama has an even thinner skin than Bush.Read the entire article HERE. It's a zinger.
With each passing day, as crises pile up, from out-of-control unemployment to the Gulf to Gaza to the failed Afghanistan adventure, the underlying liberal authoritarianism of the Obama White House becomes clearer. We, Obama's "liberal base", of which I'm a charter member, were in numb denial that our former community organiser, who elicited such an outpouring of love from his vast network of volunteers, is actually just another Illinois pol – but with a better vocabulary.
But the dogs of dissent are waking up and starting to howl.
And when the worms turn, it's gonna get ugly. I see no viable way for Obama to reverse this awakening.

As a just left of center friend asks ... who is the viable leader for the republicans who ALSO won't just be another kind of failure?
A good question.
Epa,
I don't see much hope on the GOP horizon, either.
