What Driftglass said.

The big booking this Sunday is President Obama speaking to George Stephanopoulos. However, at this point, I despair the state of debate in this country...and watch me break out the equivalencies...on BOTH SIDES. We know that the Republicans "blacktrack" anything and everything Obama promotes, even if the idea originated from them. But the left seem equally unable to have a discussion of any kind of intellectual honesty about Obama either. They either insist that he is some Jedi eleventy dimensional chess player or that he's the worst murderous totalitarian Hitler-wannabe that even came out of the Chicago political machine. Please, people. He is neither. He is a politician, for good and ill. He is neither a liberal savior nor is he some corrupted corporatist war-loving evil-doer. He both deserves our praise for doing things well (and there is no need to exclaim it as some higher cognitive jiu-jitsu we mere mortals couldn't have anticpated) and our pressure and censure when he makes mistakes (without the "ZOMG, impeach him!" screams, thankyouverymuch). Let's stop the cartoonish perceptions and expectations. This isn't a comic book. There are real problems we need to address, and a little intellectual honesty would be appreciated.

Oh, and if you still haven't started listening to Blue Gal's and Driftglass' weekly podcast, The Professional Left, don't make me berate you. They do a great job of talking about this exact issue this week. Don't miss it.
