[QUOTE="MP43, post: 2171030, member: 1631"] Excellent observations from Rich Lowery over at National Review Online: [I]"What was so extraordinary about the presidents performance yesterday is that this is the version of himself hes always tried to keep under wraps. He made his career on sounding reasonable, positioning himself as the middle between two extremes, pretending to afford respect for the arguments of his opponents, and never, ever showing anger. You always knew this was all a pose, but he never fully let loose until yesterday when he vented his rage at and his contempt for his opponents, and after a defeat in the most traditional of all liberal causes, gun control. Its amazing how he believes that everyone else in Washington engages in politics except for him, even though the way he reacted after Newtown was textbook political exploitation of a tragedyusing the victims and their families to the maximum extent possible and pursuing policy goals that hed always favored but that wouldnt have prevented the shooting. In his own mind, hes the brave and sincere one, and everyone opposed to him is an insincere coward. We already knew all of this about him, but it was revealing all the same." [/I] [/QUOTE]
