"If I'm a politician, and I want to be perceived as taking action on an issue without actually taking any action, I'll refer the matter to a panel. For several months, the panel will dicker. They'll do research. They might conduct some interviews. After that, they'll present a nice little report in a pretty font with some graphs and charts. And that's about it."
In announcing the panel (I'm sure Obama's speech is online), he specifically stated that it would NOT but such a superficial panel. But, I hope you are correct Tom.
