There should not be an inordinate fear Obama will pull the temple down with him.

Even those who ascribe the worst motives to the president should consider that his potential for hypothetical mischief is at an historic ebb.

Obama has shrunk himself by his ineptitude. The most dangerous presidents are militarily successful ones. Napoleon knew that dictators perched on glory. So long did Napoleon’s victories last, so long did his power survive. Caesar could challenge the Senate only because he was the conqueror of Gaul. Bush reduced himself significantly by failing to decisively win in his War on Terror. Yet he was Alexander by comparison to Obama who has nothing to show after six years of office but a few hundred of holes of golf and half-written agreements with nobody in particular.
