With the nomination of Elena Kagan as a Supreme Court justice I had a revelation. I was hoping for a progressive nominee that would somehow balance out the c-c-c-conservative justices appointed under W. I thought Obama's first nomination was too conservative but I think she will be a great justice, just not as liberal as I might like..
What hit me today was that President Obama is running his administration the way he thinks the Constitution envisions it. He is not running it to win the next election or to help his friends or to be popular, he is being The President. In short, he is an honorable guy trying to ignore the political wrangling and actually improve things for everyone.
You may not agree but try looking from that perspective at what Barack doe.
