Dana Millbank of the Washington Post write:
Obama’s strengths and weaknesses come from his high degree of “integrative complexity” — his ability to keep multiple variables and trade-offs in mind simultaneously. The integratively simple thinker — say, George W. Bush — has one universal organizing principle that dominates all others, while the integratively complex thinker — Obama — balances many competing goals.
In other words, people who agree with Dana are complex. People who don’t are dolts.
So just for fun, let’s assume Dana Millbank is correct. Barack Obama is intelligent, complex and an abysmal failure. The Presidency is too big for even someone as smart as Obama and all his Ivy League advisers. Isn’t this proof that a big government is unworkable?
