Amongst all the positive, yet legitimately sobering, news I am reading these days is an annoying thrum from the left of the Democratic party. It's a bit "all over the place," but the unifying theme seems top be that Barack is selling them out by picking "Clinton people" and "Insiders" to his administration. Well, I for one am tired of winning an election and then spraying a can of lighter fluid all over myself and lighting it! If you really think about it, the implication of the Left's complaints is that Barack should reward the support of the Left by appointing people from its ranks who really don't know what they would be doing. In other words, their hearts are pure, so give them on the job training.
Here is a wonderful article by a bona fide Lefty, which explains exactly why Barack is making all the right moves, as he is wont to do, thank God. Please take the time to read and digest this article so that you will be able to respond to our Lefty brothers and sisters. I love them all and trust that they will understand that Obama's presidency must by absolute necessity begin with "triage," which by no means makes it a long-run "mirage."
We don't need any "You're doing a heck of a job, Brownie" situations in this administration.
