Gotta disagree with you on this one TB. Obama is a pragmatist and gets done what he can. At the end of the day he is the one who makes the final call, e.g. whether to kill bin Laden with drones or man to man. He just doesn't going around telling people "I'm the decider," or go to war on some gut feeling.

He has the exact temperament a president should have. If he has a fault it is he is too modest.
