@ron_fournier there is no contradiction here whatsoever. None. We argued 1) O can't move Cong; and 2) therefore he should use exec auth -
@ThePlumLineGS and yet you want him to move congress on immigration, minimum wage, farm bill ... Point is, he needs to use all tools. -
@ron_fournier Yes. We agree w/that. What we were taking issue with was specifically blaming O for structural factors causing stalemate -
@ThePlumLineGS I've been arguing for a year now that White Flag caucus undervalues Obama with GL meme. Story reflects the meme accurately. -
@ron_fournier There is no White Flag caucus. It is entirely your invention -
@ThePlumLineGS Respectfully feel the same about condescending Green Lanternist meme -
@ron_fournier All we're saying is there are serious limits on what a prez can get Cong to do, particularly given today's struct. forces -
@ThePlumLineGS and you don't have to be an Obama sympathizer to realize that. I certainly do. Also know pres still highly empowered
