What carpe said:
exactly what a leader is supposed to do, he's supposed to drive the process, negotiate with all sides, consider all arguments, and push for something that actually has a good chance of arriving on his desk. It's the exact the opposite of Obama's "Do whatever you want and talk to me afterwards" leading-from-behind approach.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
Than a fool in the eyes of God
From "Fools Gold" by Petra
