It's all for show and PR, just like Holder getting involved with arresting low-level "Mafia" types in New York. Nothing will ever come of those arrests; however, they provide a photo op. Obama's meetings with business leaders is the same thing. If he wanted to help the business climate, he would not have spearheaded business killing policies for the past two years. Bottom line: this is just a sideshow in the run-up to 2012.

From my perspective, he seems clueless--grasping at anything and everything. His biggest problem, I think, is that he's looking at the economic wreckage of the country and he doesn't fully understand how we got here. It's hard to dig yourself out of a hole if you don't know what factors landed you there. Do the Reps in power have any better understanding? Not particularly, imo. Time will tell though. The elections have given them a second chance to figure things out.
