Obama's misjudgments large and small

...First the big. The Supreme Court will decide if Obama has overreached and done something no president has ever done in history: usurped the Constitution to force every citizen to buy something the government has designed for them. If his signature health-care mandate is overturned it will be hard to argue that he did little more than squander his term. 
Then there is the shameless, jaw-dropping gall of the president asking people to forgo life's small personal gestures like wedding gifts and birthday presents and instead send him a campaign contribution so that he will have a few extra dollars to protect his power and privileges. That's right, end the selfishness of giving gifts to loved ones to commemorate the milestones we share and send a humble tribute to Obama's alter. Sheesh, I thought nothing a politician could ask for could shock me. But this breaks new ground, and I find it more repulsive than Obama's grandiose health-care takeover which, at least in theory, was an attempt to achieve some public good....
I would add his position on the sequester  to the category of large screw ups.  How many Presidents are willing to hold a million defense jobs hostage to his selfish desire for a tax increase on those already paying more than their fair share?  But the "screw the bride" give me the gifts campaign demonstrates how selfish this man is.
