Gad, I haven't watched Letterman in about 10 years... |
To me he's like that dude in the white suit standing at the back of the room during a ninja fight. He looks awesome, he has this great aura, and you're hoping he does something because it will probably be the coolest thing ever. Then he just leaves, he doesn't do anything he just leaves.
With Obama, he has to watch out for over exposure, eventually if he doesn't get something done people are going to see him as a blow hard and it will kill any chance at a second term.
And putting him on a late night show where he's hit with stupid softball questions? You might as well make him the guest host on SNL or worse yet mad T.V. singing "C$$k in a box 2" with Justin Timberlake.
I don't want to know the president on a personal level, just like I don't care about the Prime Minister on a personal level, I want to know that things are progressing and happening.
I want my leader to be a duck, no activity on the surface looking a little aloof and quite in control, while the legs under the water are thrashing away keeping my nation afloat.
Not sitting on David Letterman being asked when he became a black man.
