We won’t know for some time the rationale for this decision because there’s a missing variable in the equation. If we put historical context and personal ideology aside for a moment, we are left to ruminate over factor X. How does the president’s personal psychology play into his decision making? A raging narcissist like Mr. Obama needs no expert advice. I can imagine him consulting himself in the mirror over his morning shave. Who can possibly know by what internal mechanism the president arrives at his decisions? I suppose that in time his advisers will be writing their tell all memoirs. Until then we are left to guess.
