I read a wonderful post from Mary Katherine Ham, where she neatly summed-up the overriding flaw in the Obama Administration specifically, and Leftist thinking in general:
“…Obama thinks when he says things, they just happen. There’s no small part of his entire candidacy and presidency founded on a sort of magical thinking.
His presence would fix Washington even as he did nothing to fix it and exacerbated many of its worst features. His words would heal our divides and probably the ocean. It’s not surprising that his signature law would be animated by a lot of the same.
He said “Travelocity for health care,” didn’t he?
He said Benghazi’s perpetrators would be brought to justice, didn’t he?
He said the IRS acted inappropriately, didn’t he?
Problem solved…”
Mary Katherine is more correct here than I think she even knows.
