While Rome Burns....


Or while the world goes to pieces.

A brief rant---------

Mr. Obama, just a note--you would be taken sooooooo much more seriously if you would just act like you cared.

Cut the parties, for example, like the recent ones at the White House (Super Bowl party in February, the Motown music extravaganza February 24th, and the huge Governor's Dinner where you fed thousands of calories to everyone).

Do a little work at the White House--instead of golfing, basketball, and fundraising dinners around the country.

Say something useful about the economy--which is going to hell in a handbasket, with rising gasoline prices, rising food prices, and continuing high unemployment.

Be honest--I don't much care about your birth certificate, but your continued intransigence about this (and your grades, and your upbringing, and your time with Jeremiah Wright) in not giving this information marks you as a liar.

Get your wife out of the government--First Ladies can certainly have causes, but that doesn't extend to trying to get legislation passed and strong-arming businesses. Besides, when it's-do-as-I-say, not do-as-I-do, the cause becomes really insipid and weak. Mrs. Obama needs to find somthing she really believes in.

Addendums:

Stop playing and get busy
--Brew your own beer when you get out of the White House. Right now it's time to work, not play.

Start being a little economically reasonable in your (more) private life
--You really don't need to fly in your own personal trainer from Chicago, or your favorite chefs from around the country. It's you that insists the country tightens its belts. How about leading by example?
Rant over.
