Fareed Zakaria actually has no idea what is a Liberal. Obama wants to paint himself as the adult in the room, while the GOP are babies. However, responsible adults don't get the children get away with it. When children act spoiled, real adults take that as an opportunity to educate the children and putting them in their place. If the adult condones the childish attitude of the kids and let them get away with it, that is not being an adult. It is just another child playing adult. Obama cannot find it inside him because he is afraid of confrontation with the children. The result is the bunch of spoiled kids running the house instead if the adult running the house. Sounds familiar? That's leadership a la Barack Obama.
