Give Us Susan Boyle; Not Obama

Less prime time for Obama would be ok with me, and most Americans-especially if it would interfere with our viewing the one bright light, Susan Boyle!

NBC, well-known for its usual capitulation to White House calls for Obama's press conferences, confounded the White House when NBC balked at letting Obama take the cherished prime time slot of 9:00p.m. for America's Got Talent.

Just the thought of not seeing the exclusive interview with Susan Boyle, because Obama wishes to drive home more of his points on health care, sends a shiver up my spine.  We would all be deprived of what promises to be a delightful interview with Susan. From the previews already aired about this wonderful Scottish singer, it will be much more interesting to hear her as opposed to Obama.

Unfortunately, for the White House, The Independent reports that Californians will still be driving home from work. Other Americans will be finishing things up in the kitchen, and many more American will still be watering their gardens when Obama dominates the television screens again in his bid for a mad rush of legislation.

But at 9:00 p.m. est., we can take a refreshing break and watch Susan Boyle!

Lame Pelosi

Greta Van Sustern is famous for her brilliant questioning, but no matter how intelligent she is, nothing could help Nancy Pelosi look anything but "lame". I especially noted this when Greta asked Mrs. Pelosi why she was backing Obama who had such a weak resume. The answer will floor you. The word "lame" is forever applied to this inept Speaker of the House. Webster defines it best: lacking needful or desirable substance : weak, ineffectual....that's Nancy.
