From Naked
Capitalism
I voted for Obama, but with my eyes open. He had no prior executive
experience, nor any significant legislative accomplishments. As a
senator, he was a newcomer to Washington who spent most of his time out
of town campaigning for some other office. Which means he knew no one
there.
It was not hard to anticipate the result: The new President was
easily captured by Washington insiders & quickly reduced to
mindless pandering. I've seen a lot of that the last week. High-flown
oratory is no substitute for effective executive management. They are,
in fact, completely unrelated. So instead of actually governing, our
new Emperor is instead out campaigning. Trying to persuade us he is
wearing fine new clothes. Increasingly, we suspect otherwise.
