defense of how he says what he say. But we never, EVER, hear from his supporters how they feel about his proposals. We know it is not from being timid about providing commentary.

As I have said in other posts, the absence of much if any support commentary fore his proposals is not limited to just this forum.

The few who are regular participants, who support some of what Obama promotes and stands for do it very well and they seem to be able o hold their own. But they are in the minority. Very unlike the the Blue oval flag wavers during the campaign.

What Obama is getting now is a dose of reality. He can say (which he does more often than most POTUS) I am the President....and learning (too slowly) that does not make him omnipotent....just an elected person like all his predecessors.
