Despite the ethical failings of his appointees, despite an economic war plan that resembles firing bullets in all directions, despite the evaporation of trillions of dollars in private wealth, the President---our President---is a lucky man.
Think how much worse we'd feel about him if (a) the mainstream media were as critical about his 45-day performance as they would have been about a President McCain, and (b) there were a hot war (India-Pakistan, Russia-Georgia, China-Taiwan, Israel-Syria/Iran/Palestine) for him to contend with. Thanks should go to his predecessor for stanching the Iraq bleeding before turning over the keys. Otherwise our lucky President would be in over his head. © 2009 Stephen Yuen
