I'm not saying that noted fabulist Doug Brinkley's most recent little fantasy isn't close to what should happen. I'm just saying it's sooo far outside the bounds of the Obama Administration's character that no reasonable person should give it more than a few seconds' worth of serious expectation.
It would be the equivalent of Obama immediately firing Timothy Geithner. And then seizing Lloyd Blankfein's fortune. And possibly his ass as well. And then pulling out of Afghanistan. And then using the windfall to buy every man woman and child in America a cold beer and arugula salad. Oh and then the US winning the World Cup. It's comfortably placed within the box of shit that ain't gonna happen.
As daydreams go, it isn't the worst thing I've ever seen. Sad that daydreams are what we've been reduced to, though.
