Your link has a great many well-researched quotes that pretty clearly show the President is, as we've become more generally conscious of lately, far more devoted to bipartisan sing-alongs than to social and economic justice and effective leadership in the face of momentous national challenges.
I've never really bought off on the contention that he's a "corporati
st." I've gotten close to believing and have used the term to describe his actions on occasion. But I'm coming around now to seeing that he's not quite as smart as he appears (we all know people who can do amazing things - but can't match socks!). I'm thinking that he truly believes that if he chooses atopic and puts x republicans and x Democrats in a room and insist that they play nice, that a "good," "fair," and "effective" decision will eventually squirt out later.
The fact that he doesn't set any expectations, no goals, no demands for 'features' in significant legislation pretty much nails it up. I suspect that history will show the single greatest contribution from the Obama administration is to have undeniably prove that "bipartisanship" with repugs and a Democratic party tainted with DINO
frau.ds (lieberman, lincoln, emanuel, geithner, et. al.) spells failure.
