To me, it's just showing off Obama's personality. He's a thinker and doesn't like to take action on a whim, if he can help it. He's probably trying to think of all the bad points of this and weighing them to the good. Anyone would hate a deadline to be put on them like that and now that his Presidency is coming to an end, there's no need for him to try to appeal to the public anymore, so he can do things his way now without any interruption.

Sounds like a bunch of whiners not getting what they want, he turns one thing down and they try to make him look like a liar .. instead of looking for more oil we should put more money toward finding alternative sources.

Obama is doing an excellent job of managing to avoid fulfilling promises or fulfilling them too late. If anything he created jobs, to help destroy jobs.

 

Where is the change? It seems that things are just as shitty as when Bush left. And he isn't that much different than Bush in the first place. I like to think of him as Bushes next door neighbor to the left.

I wish I could tell my boss, "I'm not going to do this because the deadline is too soon"
