Don't let this comparison of Obama's and Biden's first 100 days hurt your feelings. It doesn't mean Obama was bad (Larry Summers and Rahm were though), just that he (and his Obama alum team) learned the hard way not to try to tone it down for the sake of the rat bastards in the GOP.

Don't write off progressive activists as a group that you can never satisfy."
