6. The buck pretty much stops at his desk. Are you not aware of this?

I suppose Congress could over-ride a veto, I'm not currently concerned that the Senate has enough Blue Dogs to assist the Republics in a veto over-ride.

But yeah, ultimately Obama is the final place where a cave could occur, and he's proven a great ability to make the choice of caving.

I understand you are uncomfortable with criticism of the president, my circumstances and values simply don't allow me to let him slide any more than I would any other president of any other party. He has been dramatically less than the inspired, determined persona he presented through his campaign.
