I haven't gotten too excited about the catastrophe that is supposed to visit us at one minute past midnight on August 2. I really don't think President Obama is going to stop granny's Social Security check; after all, she might live to November 2012 and take her revenge at the ballot box. But, much as I am disappointed by the president's acting-out of recent days, I am disappointed as well by the Republicans in the House of Representatives, who failed to pass a bill last night.
The phrase of the month is "the adult in the room." Well, that adult in my mind is John Boehner. Where Mr. Obama has been childish, Mr. Boehner has been very much the grownup. It's a pity that Sarah Palin and others on the nutty right haven't fallen in behind him. Blue skies! -- Dan Ford
