Patriot Update

It’s a difficult question to answer for anybody: What is your biggest failure? But for most people, it isn’t difficult to be consistent in answering the question. President Obama has been asked what his biggest failure or disappointment has been during his first term three times this year and he’s given three different answers.

From 60 Minutes Sunday:

I’m the first one to confess that– the spirit that I brought to Washington, that I wanted to see instituted, where we weren’t constantly– in– in a political slugfest but were focused more on problem solving that, you know, I haven’t fully accomplished that. Haven’t even come close in some cases. And– you know, if you ask me—what’s my biggest disappointment is that we haven’t changed the tone in Washington as much as I would have liked.
