England and Russia learned this lesson a long time ago. You would think....Never mind.<br /><br />Suffice to say, I don't receive half the information Obama receives. I don't read all of (or any of) the Presidential Daily Briefings that are placed on his desk every morning. Maybe he knows something that I don't. I am not doubting that as a distinct possibility. But from where I sit it would seem to me that this president has failed to learn the historical lessons taught to us by the administrations of Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Lyndon Baines Johnson - lessons involving bold action in times of economic crisis, and the utter folly of trying to win wars that cannot be won.<br /><br />I want to believe in this guy but the sad fact of the matter is that I am quickly losing confidence in my president. Where the heck is all this change I could believe in? Are the Republicans still in charge? What gives?<br /><br />http://www.tomdegan.blogspot.com<br /><br />Tom DeganTom Deganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17911175264811957550noreply@blogger.com
