Beginning To Look Like A Trend…

Obama is allowing himself to be led by the nose by generals who are far to the right of the people who supported and elected him. Just as he is allowing himself to be led by the nose by corporate shills like Summers and Geithner, and by anti-public option compromisers like Rahm.
Just once I’d like to see Obama stand up to all the Republicans and near-Republicans who are advising him, and actually do something that he was elected to do, but I know that’s a pipe dream. He listens to them not because he’s a weak and gullible naif (although that could be true as well), but because he’s one of them and they’re telling him exactly what he wants to hear.
