98. I detest Rahm and everything he stands for.
My problem is that you want to blame him for everything. He is doing the bidding of his boss, the POTUS. And before you accuse me of not liking Obama, I supported him, I worked for him, I donated to him, I voted for him; however, I am not a sycophant who will excuse him and blame his staffers because I can't bring myself to acknowledge that he is not perfect or that he makes mistakes or that somehow he doesn't know what his staff is doing.

By insisting that this is all Rahm's fault, you are (inadvertently, I'm sure) insulting Obama. In essence, you're saying he's not in charge, he's not intelligent enough to understand what Rahm's up to, and that he's easily duped. I don't really think you think that. It's obvious you are very loyal to him, but that's what you're doing.

I'm sorry if I'm coming off as hostile, but it's impossible to solve a problem if you can't acknowledge what the problem actually is, and, imo, Rahm isn't the problem (part of it), but not the real problem. Getting rid of him wouldn't change anything.

I apologize to you for being hostile. Obviously, we're not going to agree, so I'll stop posting, and agree to disagree.
