Obama in Indonesia: Like Mother, Like Son

Barack Obama resorted to his tired car-in-the-ditch analogy throughout the campaign season even as he resembled a delusional motorist who barrels towards traffic while insisting to his frightened passengers that the oncoming drivers are on the wrong side of the road.

Now even after the crash, as his electric car appears almost wheel-less, he continues to complain about the poor driving of others. At last week's press conference, he more or less pledged to keep driving into the oncoming traffic. He renewed his commitment to a "green" economy, a redistributionist federal government, and the boutique causes of the social left.
