President Obama has gone on the offensive at the beginning
of his second term, and Republicans aren’t happy campers. Of course,
every Republican camp is unhappy in its own way.
There
are the lamenters. Shouldn’t Obama have been less partisan in his
Inaugural Address? Who gave liberals the right to launch ideological
offensives? Doesn’t Obama know this is a center-right country? Didn’t he
learn any lessons from Bill Clinton? Beneath these rhetorical
questions, of course, lurks the fear that Obama will succeed.
But he won’t. There’s no need to worry that Barack Obama
will be a liberal Ronald Reagan. Reagan’s foreign and economic policies
succeeded. Obama’s policies are failing, at home and abroad.
