Obama Owns His Failed Presidency

RON SUSKINDâ??S NEW book has already aroused intense controversy. The former investment banker Steven Rattner, who advised the Obama administration on the auto bailout, described Confidence Men as â??a drive-by shooting of a president and his key economic advisers who deserve encomiums, not unfounded second guessing and inaccurate revisionist history.â? Jacob Weisberg, the chairman of Slate and Robert Rubinâ??s co-autobiographer, in a scathing review entitled â??Donâ??t Believe Ron Suskind,â? accused the author of being a disreputable journalist that readers should no longer trust.
