Caesar, I truly admire your acumen for recognizing value. Thank you for being you. At least now you see why the idea "Forget the Republicans" is actually not valuable for you or Obama. The reason is you will deny yourselves the opportunity to disable gridlock on its sheer demerits. In other words there is a reason gridlock is not desirable for any democracy. But if you deny yourself the opportunity to identify the tumors in gridlock, you cannot bring idiots along with you. I am absolutely, I mean without equivocation, in the superlative merit of your ideas and Obama's ideas, and I am awed by Obama's ability to reduce the oft-complicated in more Republican terms. The most significant part of this Retreat that wasn't was that it was televised, at the chagrin of some Republicans. They said the healthcare debate was not all on C-Span, but they recoil at the idea of a Retreat being on regular TV. So you see that what was driving the gridlock was charlatanry and cavortin', but if you had ignore graft and graffignette you would not have been able to harness value from it, albeit minimal. So Caesar, I want to encourage you to resolve once again as you have been instrumental in electing Obama, to accompany him with confidence and assist him in completing the tasks you assigned him. He is good for the money. And I know you are too. I think a great mirage had been placed between you and Obama that hindered your appreciation of him. This is because you haven't completely made the transition from campaigning for President and being President. And Obama has already. He had to. I suggest now that you jet the Toga and don the overalls and pinstripes and come along. We ain't waitin' on you. Leave the mortar and pestle behind. Haruna. In a message dated 1/29/2010 8:05:58 P.M.

It is Obama at his best and he cleaned their clock at their own retreat. This is Mr. Obama at his best.
