Thank you, Mr President.

It's a lot like the sale of Manhatten Island years ago, land traded for beads

I am a lot more charitably inclined toward Obama at this point. He made the mistake of letting Pelosi and friends get too much say and too much face-time making it very easy for the GOP to subvert his Presidency. If he can insert himself between these two factions he can actually do the peoples business.
