62. Stewart expressed *his* frustration at what seems to take forever to get done
Edited on Wed Jun-09-10 04:25 PM by dave29
it was the "you are being too elitist" "we are getting impatient waiting for you to move" thing.

The problem is, Stewart, who normally reads up on his stuff, should understand that *nobody* has a solution for the gulf oil spill right now, and rather than harping on the President by lumping other complicated (yes, they are complicated) issues in with this one... he is insisting the President act... now. On something. Anything. Ignoring of course, that Obama has acted on a frighteningly disproportionate number of issues compared to his predecessor... who left him all these woes.

It was... lazy journalism. And that's sad to say about Stewart... but it happens to the funniest of us.

Edit to add: I do believe the President is in a lose lose situation here, for the time being, as are we all.
