Mr. Magoo Goes to Washington "The bloom is gone, the magic dissipated (remember: “this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow”?). And what’s left?

"This ignorance [of voters] is what has led us to this monumental moment in history and it is now time for the few informed voters to take the lead." Read about stealth tax hikes here.
Michael Barone: President Whatever "As his partisan and petulant speech showed, Obama realizes things are not going his way."

–adjective; moved to or showing sudden, impatient irritation, especially over some trifling annoyance: a petulant toss of the head.
