The Hill and the Oval - 2nd Term Blues


Lets Get Real:

As the Guardian broke the Snowden story one is not surprised that it is leading with this story, the left can not quite get its head around the fact that Obama in some areas is quite a HAWK, his use of drones to kill terrorists, his ruthless search for leaker's, the collecting of the phone records of ALL Americans, even Nixon never went that far, in many respects he makes Bush 43 look quite liberal.  On the other hand, he left Iraq, he wants to leave Afghanistan, he wants to move on from the War on Terror, while at the same type keeping the structure of the War on Terror, thus the Oval manages to annoy both the Democrats and the Republicans, lets see how long the LIBERAL BASE can be kept in check by the Oval, they will want to vent, also in many respects Obama is a lame duck President, thus they can not cause that much political damage.
