Lesson #1 (for the gullible and naive): No politician ever did anything difficult without being pressured.
Lesson #2 (for the sycophantic and fall-in-liners): Whatever the Administration is saying today, whether from Sebelius, Bill Burton or Mr. Gibbs is due to the pressure progressives are putting on them.
This group does not include the random ranting diarists harkening back to ancient history while dredging it up; who would rather stir those old ashes than make a cogent argument aimed at someone in particularly, you know, who actually has a name.
Lesson #3 (for people still using primary arguments and trying to hoist those on the rest of us): The health care fight today has nothing to do with 2008 or that schmuck Edwards, Hillary or anyone else.
This is all about Pres. Obama. The fact that he made promises, but instead of keeping his word he decided to go down bipartisanship road, which crashed into Sarah Palin highway, which led us all headlong into a dead end, flabbergasted.
Pressure on the President doesn’t mean we think he’s going to “fail” or be a “one-term” president. If you don’t know that, step aside and let the grown ups do our job. We are acting to make sure neither happens.
This is a message for all you Chicken Littles, you handwringers, you wannabe strategists, you people who have suggestions or doubts: I am vaguely calling you out.
Who you are is not really important. Why I am vaguely calling you out is also not important. In fact, it is better that both “you,” and what you are doing, are never really defined. …
Now, everyone, shut the hell up.
Obama is thinking.
