Obama should stop being nice guy

President Obama is far too civil and polite. He's behaving too much like a nice guy to be an effective leader. We need him to stop fruitlessly reaching out to his ruthless and self-serving foes.

Why not acknowledge their hatred and ideological extremism and fight them like an FDR or Lyndon Johnson. Appeasing Republicans who are determined to destroy him and his presidency at all cost is getting him and us nowhere.
