Recapping last week:

We had the announcement of the speech, we had the lesson plan. Obama gave the speech, but due to "irrational" pressure released the text of the speech in advance. Due to "irrational" pressure the President backed off of his original lesson plan for the students. Why did he even respond to "irrational" people?

We had the "irrational" Glenn Beck going off on Van Jones for what seemed to be months. The mainstream media ignored the issue until last week. Van Jones resigns due to a conservative "witch hunt", in the middle of the night on a Friday before a long weekend. The President makes no comment and does not support his appointee, he does not express disappointment in Jone's positions. "Irrational" right wingers at it again!

So, the only "win" Obama had was, he actually gave the speech. Otherwise, irrationality ruled the day.

What is worse is you think it is the "mobs" problem.

Is Obama a puppet to irrational people or does he have a backbone? His next opportunity to prove he does is Wednesday. I am betting more vagueness, more of the same, more confusion not less.
Sorry...I dont live in "ace" world.
