Is TOTUS on vacation?

Is TOTUS on vacation?

He was missing the other night.

Had a large flat screen as a replacement.

Oh that is good. I think I might actually watch next months speaking by the One. The Obingo card might actually make it tolerable...if I pair it with drinking.

A new TOTUS twist or...

Richard's $.02

Obama turns to Web to bypass news media
AP, 26 Mar 2009

Obama used the Internet to build a grass-roots movement that delivered the presidency and raised unheard-of money. Now in power, he is employing the same online network and style to speak — unfiltered — with Americans.

1 - Political operatives say the White House's strategy is a way to reach a demographic key to Obama's election.

2 - Yet the process lends itself to softer questions and ones the White House is eager to answer, Republicans noted.

Right. I'm willing to believe that he'll actually be the one answering, instead of a PR mouthpiece. (I'm not certain that will be the case, but I'll give the benefit of the doubt.)

But there's no way the logistics work without someone screening. Sheer volume alone requires screening.
