Steve Green spots “The Telling Detail”:
The lede from an AP report I found on Google… well…
WASHINGTON — With a Nobel Peace Prize in hand, President Barack Obama returned to the grind of governing, refocusing on his top domestic priority as the Senate moves toward a pivotal moment on legislation to remake the nation’s health care system.
AdvertisementDo you really think reporter Ben Feller would have used the word “grind” if the bloom was still on the rose?
Maybe Ben’s just disappointed that there apparently won’t be a receiving line for supplicants reporters at the Obama’s Christmas winter solstitial party.












Obama has a difficult job, made even more difficult by the amazing agenda of changes he wants to make.
But, there are compensations. Look at the thrills he gets from pushing monstrous-big changes to the status-quo. Unlike business, he doesn’t have to investigate or file Environmental Impact Statements before carryout out his gee-whiz experiments. He can “Just Do It” and see what happens.
I wonder how it will all turn out. Life was dull before. Life as one of 300 million experimental subjects is more exciting.
