Elderly schoolgirl Maureen Dowd subtly gigs Obama's self-image as that of the Pope or Mussolini or dare one wish it, Romania's ex-tator Ceaușescu. Whatever it is, watching MoDo excoriate Boom Boom leads me to almost wish an exchange of Miss American Treacle Peggy Noonan for newly vitriolic Dowd. Almost but not quite.
The job of the former community organizer and self-styled uniter is to somehow get this dunderheaded Congress, which is mind-bendingly awful, to do the stuff he wants them to do. It’s called leadership.
He still thinks he’ll do his thing from the balcony and everyone else will follow along below. That’s not how it works.
