... and quite another thing when you're the leader of the nation and the free world, and all you can do to the people who have supported you through thick and thin is treat them like a bunch of ungrateful whiners.
For a guy who made his national reputation on being inspirational, Obama sure hasn't shown much inspirational ability in the Oval Office. He's really run an in-box, out-box Presidency--and, frankly, what's ended up in the out-box has a lot of legislative fingerprints and not as much change that we can believe it. He was supposed to be the next FDR. Where are the fireside chats. Laugh at Bill Clinton all you want for feeling your pain, but it got him elected and re-elected.
Memo to Obama: Stop treating your best friends as ingrates. Start listening to people's problems without acting like they're picking on you. It's all right to show the public that you can walk a mile in their shoes. In fact, for the people and the nation, it's essential.
