Hailing 111th Congress, Obama prepares further shift to the right

This is a very sensible performance review of the 111th Congress and Obama administration. Also, an excellent antidote to all the media hoopla about all their accomplishments. 

I think Obama's main focus is on ingratiating himself with the ruling class so that he can be elected for a second term. If you use that criteria, he has performed very well. Of course, that is why they hired him to be President.
As the 111th congressional session came to a close, the Obama administration and the US media have stepped up the propaganda offensive over the past two days to justify an even further shift to the right by the political establishment next year.
