Why Obama Should Put BP Under Temporary Receivership

I think this is the biggest misconception about Obama, that he's just been an innocent dupe (of corporations, of Rahm Emanuel, of Tim Geithner, et al).



David Plouffe and David Axelrod have done a masterful job of keep Obama separate from his decisions, so that everybody else gets tarred, except Obama.



If you go back and listen to Candidate Obama's speeches, interviews and debates (with your now 'experienced'-ears) you'll see how Obama used ambiguous words which led his supporters to believe what they wanted to about him. It's why even today his most ardent supporters are split on whether he's a liberal or a centrist (he's neither), and why they are breaking their backs trying to find a rationale for his anti-populist (against THEM, the People who put him into power) ways.



I'm an old liberal Democrat, never voted Republican, and say he's a fraud only after great study and certitude.
