Why Obama doesn't dare become the 'angry black man' – CNN.com
Um, because he’s really a stodgy, unfeeling, boring old white guy whose tied to Big Oil?
What goes through my my mind when I read the news with my morning coffee. …Or for the Simon's Rockers in the group, this is my response journal.

Obama to Meet Families of 11 Killed in Oil Spill – ABC News
Top on the list of things he should have done two months ago.
Doing it so late looks so contrived and is just more evidence that they have never, never, never been ahead of this thing. They are 8 weeks behind, playing catch up.
As Carville or somebody said, Clinton would have moved down there by now and would be out in the fisher villages every day, listening to people, and feeling their pain.
I know this guy is a cold fish, removed, professor type (seriously, he makes Gore look like an animated guy) but he hasn’t met with the families yet? He does realize that there are Democrats out there, Democrats who campaigned for him, Democrats who linked their names to his, Democrats who are RUNNING FOR REELECTION this cycle.
I seriously don’t like this guy. I think he is not the right guy for this job. If I’m thinking that then we’re in trouble with the moderate Republicans and Independents. Get it together you over-hyped non-whiz whiter than I am kid!
Woman dumps fake oil on herself to protest Gulf liability cap – CNN.com
Uhhhhh-huh.
Because that ought to help things.
A problem with demonstartions like that is that the actual impression that is left and the message intended to be communicated don’t always go so well together.

How Much Oil is Really Leaking Into the Gulf? – CBS Evening News – CBS News
BP has absolutely nothing to gain by the public finding out how much oil is leaking. They have everything to gain by minimizing the appearance of the spill for as long as they can.
Palin vs. Pelosi and Other 2010 Midterm Themes – Newsweek.com
“President Obama and the Democrats (who dumped and dissed the Clintons in 2008) are depending on Bubba to help stave off disaster in 2010. He’s largely been a backroom emissary so far, but that is about to change. Sen. Blanche Lincoln’s victory in Arkansas Tuesday was in part due to Clinton’s enduring popularity in his home state; he campaigned for her in the last days and worked his old contacts one by one. He has burnished his reputation with his charitable works, and he is the best campaigner of his generation. Clinton’s theme: we know how to fix the economy. Remember the ’90s?”
Yes.
Is It Twilight for Louisiana's Black Oystermen? – TIME
I’m just going to sigh, put my head down and refrain from commenting.
Oh, I can’t help it.
Way to go Obama….

Border Agent Shoots, Kills Mexican Boy At Bridge : NPR
So we’re not just in bed with the Israeli government, we’re turning into them now? So we’re going to go around shooting boys throwing rocks?

Fox News Eyes Helen Thomas's Front Row Seat: Reports
May everyone who was willing to sacrifice Thomas and the last bit of journalism available from the WH Press Room on the altar of distracting the public from the very real (and much more offensive) offenses committed by the Israeli government choke on this.
All of you assholes deserve to lose your access to real journalism but the sad thing is none of you fucking morons will even notice it.

Once Again, Obama Tells BP ‘No Nickel and Diming’ – Washington Wire – WSJ

Obama looking for 'whose ass to kick' – CNN.com
OMG, how awkward.
I wish his advisers had chosen something less obvious than that phrase.
Or how about advising him to stop talking about and do something.
…Especially stop talking about it inside in plush rooms for God’s sake.
(Hellooooo, if can’t manage action, at least make it look like action is an option you are actually considering!)
Wasn’t he supposed to be smart about media?
(Insert sigh of disgust here.)
