Washington Post "When I heard that President Obama was going to publicly announce his nominees for the D.C. Circuit Court today, I thought he would take the opportunity to show poise and make an effort to bolster his slipping presidency. I thought he would try to break out from the hand-to-hand combat in Washington and stem the growing malaise within his administration. So I was surprised that, instead, the president adopted a whiny, defensive pout. Obama would rather air his grievances with Republicans than present himself as an effective, engaged president. And no one in the White House can talk him out of it. That’s a bad sign for the president."The writer twists the knife some more with this to which I've added emphasis:
"Recently, former President Bill Clinton was credited with — or blamed for, depending on your point of view — saying that, “Obama doesn’t know how to be president.” Today was the clearest example I’ve seen in a while that the presidency just doesn’t suit Obama."
