on the couch. nice to see you. the author of "a simple government." this quote comes this morning from a rebel fighter. do we have to wait until muammar qaddafi to kill us all until the world acts? and an opinion piece in the wall street journal yesterday that says president obama has been dodging some major decision points spinning his wheels while libya is burning and dodging the decision in favor of the approval rating. do you disagree? >>guest: i am not sure it is an effort to say look at approval ratings but he has a legislative mine set. a legislator can say we will deliberate and always can back away and let the colleagues take the heat because in the congress you have 434 other people and in the senate you have 99 others who can say take the heat. that is his background.
