Obama is ‘over-exposed’? That’s leadership, people.
So, for weeks and weeks and weeks, the White House has been inundated with a clarion call from the media: “Why have you not fixed the economy yet? You better explain it soon! Oh My God, look at the Dow Jones! It falls, because of you, and your lack of a solution.” So, President Barack Obama went on the Tonight Show, and did an interview with 60 Minutes, and will do another news conference tonight. These appearances will help Obama advance an explanation of his bank bailout program, and offer reporters a chance to publicly question the president. One would think that this would be a good thing. But NO! God, no! Doesn’t Obama realize that he’s risking over-exposure, with all the explaining and answering questions and being a public figure? How dare he?
That’s the recent message that’s been advancing through the press. After Obama appeared on a rival network’s late night show, CBS’s Chris Wragge was given to wonderment: “The Obama blitz, the President’s appearing everywhere, but is his media tour taking attention away from his message?” Because clearly, the last thing a “message” needs is a series of sessions that allows it to be clearly elucidated!
Here’s the President of the United States speaking with school kids, to our Astronauts.
Obama reached out by sending an Op-Ed to 30 newspapers worldwide, asking for a coherent response to the global financial crisis.
Overexposed?
He’s doing his job.
I guess we were so numbed by the last guy’s inability to stay awake past 10 pm, that we’re exhausted by Obama’s energy.
Leave Obama alone, he’ll surprise his critics by actually getting things done…
I’m in shock that he hasn’t taken a month long vacation like the last administration. What’s wrong with him?!?
