"Five years in, Obama’s presidency appears more divisive than decisive. There is a high irony in this outcome for a candidate elected on promises of unity and change. Yet the increasingly obvious pattern is that Obama is unwilling to make a tough decision and as a result, he not only alienates a growing number of voters, but an increasing number of his supporters.

Obama’s presidential campaign was explicit in its commitment to an administration both unifying and bold. “Hope,” “Change we can believe in,” and “Yes we can!” promised a muscular agenda America could rally around. And America did." "...

He won re-election, now he plans to coast to the finish line?

If I thought your assessment was correct (and I'm not saying I do) I would still prefer an aimless presidency coasting for 4 years than a republican presidency micro managed by the Tea Party.

We have no choice......FYI. THE course of action to protect ourselves from this monster is to keep the house and take the Senate 2014. The toilet will fully plug.

Thank God we have Obama with veto power to save us from that nightmare scenario. We have already seen the damage done when conservatives try to flex their muscles, they would take this country into a financial abyss.

The financial abyss when the Republicans owned the House under Clinton? Record profits IIRC.

There is nothing about the current Republican Party that resembles the Republican Party during Clinton's presidency.

Archer, Obama and the Demorats have already taken us there.

On Oct. 4, the debt held by the public — not including Social Security and Medicare — had risen 89.3 percent since Mr. Obama took office, according to FactCheck.org, a nonprofit project of the Annenberg Public Policy Center of the University of Pennsylvania. The administration recently projected an annual deficit of $750 billion in the fiscal year that began Oct. 1 and $626 billion the year after that.

“At that rate, the debt owed to the public will more than double during the Obama presidency,” FactCheck said in its quarterly statistical report on Mr. Obama’s tenure in office.



How much is enough, Archer?

For the hands out crowd, it is never enough.

The silent majority will be silent no more.
