WTF? Since when is constant campaigning considered policymaking? His only policymaking consisted of meeting with Big Labor, PHaRMA, and others that he needed on his side. He mainly left the details to Pelosi and Reid.
And with a party every three days on average, it's kinda hard to "make policy" when you're sitting around a table drinking beer with a cop and a racist professor. Oh, and Plugs too. Can't forget that idiot.
I'd see this as a sign of more speeches and such to come. Something like 400+ interviews and speeches in the last year, means he wasn't in touch with America. So I guess we could expect 800 or so this year.Plus side to this being he won't have any time to screw things up this way.
This is just more of the "you're just too stupid to know what's best for you" meme.The spin for the loss in MA is going down by them saying "We didn't present our information and facts clearly enough, so people just didn't understand". Heard three different dems with that take yesterday on Fox.
He has been tired to work after all it is a hard job to go on as many vacations and seeing the world on the tax payer's money after all
