Shorter David Brooks.

Heh:

Barack Obama, a Democrat who promised sweeping reform, was elected president because the American people were fed up with partisan Democrats and didn’t want any reform. Now that the people have noticed he’s acting like a Democrat and pushing reforms, he’s lost them; therefore, he should cave to everything Republicans demand, and so regain the public’s confidence.

Just another reason why Teh Sadly is still one of my favorites.
