THE TEFLON MAN, BHO, IS LOSING HIS COATING

From today's lead editorial in the Washington Post:

LIKE A DIETER who allows himself just one more slice of cake before starting to count calories, President Obama signed the $410 billion omnibus spending bill, then pledged to get tough on congressional earmark spending -- next time. "This piece of legislation must mark an end to the old way of doing business," Mr. Obama announced. As with the dieter, skepticism is appropriate. The old way was supposed to have ended already.

[...]

...[E]armarks are symbols of broader indiscipline, and they also are conducive to corruption. So it was disappointing that Mr. Obama shied away from a tougher stance even as he congratulated himself for doing more.

When cult followers start getting disappointed in their leader, look out. The pendulum will swing to the opposite side.

I can't wait for the left to start screeching. Heh.
