He doesn't fight (4.00 / 1)
He just doesn't. He says nice things, but when it comes time to put up, he shuts up. Where's the pressure to get Johnsen confirmed? Why is the FDA commissioner just now getting a hearing? Why was Sebelius confirmed only a week or so ago? Why is Specter being welcomed with open arms despite offering bupkes? It's not that he hasn't called for some good policies, but when it comes time to actually fight for things that aren't automatic, as SCHIP and Lily Ledbetter were, he does not fight. It's perplexing, infutiating and scary.

What is this man made of, that's not mostly of an intellectual, managerial and charismatic dimension, of which he's clearly a master? What has he fought for, and won?

This is just bizarre.

The liberal soul shall be made fat. He who waters shall be watered also himself. (Proverbs 11:25)
