Ignatius: 2011's Screwed Up Leaders

The Washington Post's David Ignatius writes for RealClearPolitics about widespread leadership failures in the year 2011. As he runs down the list of failed leaders, including our president, he almost succeeds in convincing the reader that Obama failed less than most.

I suppose, compared to leaders who were killed, died, were driven out of office, or faced massive popular uprisings, Obama's failures pale somewhat. On the other hand, I (and perhaps you) care less about the failures of leaders of other nations than the failures of our leader.

Ignatius' article is worth your time as a catalog of the annus horribilis just ended.
