From The Political Commentator, written by Michael Haltman Reelection aside, the Iranian nuclear weapons program still needs to be addressed! Out of sight, out of mind is the business as usual Washington approach to impending crises. A perfect example was the debate over the debt ceiling being raised when all involved parties knew that it needed to be addressed long before the 11th hour was reached.

While placebos typically are used in health related areas, could those drinking the Obama Kool-Aid actually be suffering from some type of placebo effect as well?
