Politics be damned

Our system of two party politics anchors just about everything that gets done governmentally speaking…and right now that anchor feels like it is secured to my ankles and I’m about to be dropped overboard.

With party ideology driving the talking heads, Obama has emerged as the rational voice of compromise.  Rather than jumping on board, both parties are squabbling like two-year olds…eg, it’s all about them.  This makes the president the only adult in the group.  Not a bad strategy for him given that John Q Public is damned tired of politics getting in the way of achieving results.

My only question is whether the president was clever enough to predict the juvenile reaction to his latest proposal or did he just luck out?
