Under the spell of left wing thinking. The president just bashes anyone who disagrees with him, says he is open to all ideas with a smile and closes the door most of the way to what conservatives have been asking for. Many believe he came forth with lots of details about HIS plan - IMO and many others, there were no real details and no proof he could accomplish some of his goals like not adding to the deficit. No one believes that, deep down, no semi-intelligent person could.

It seems to be easy for the far left to dig in given the far rights inflamatory activities at times - the more the far left pushes it's agenda the more the far right will dig into it's positions. The president is the leader of the left and the country is center right. No one should be confused about this.
