I would agree with you except we've seen with our own eyes the guy's a slacker. Has he spent one day since he was inaugurated actually doing any work? No! He's been doing photo ops, giving speeches and partying. He's signed legislation written by Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid and executive orders written by Rahm Emmanuel. Just like in the Illinois Senate others did the work and he got the credit.
It would be easy to dismiss if there weren't evidence to suggest otherwise.
It is certainly the case that there is much evidence, which is why I do not necessarily trust or see the need for quotes coming from persons twice removed from the action. Again ... my point was that this type of article would have been blasted had it been written about a conservative, but is taken as nearly the gospel truth because it is knocking Obama. Why do we want to endorse this type of journalism simply because it meshes with our own opinion. I try to remain consistent in my criticism. Obviously frowned upon around here these days.
