Fawning Over Obama

George Stepanopoulos gushed over the President-elect on Sunday just like a thirteen year old girl who has just discovered boys. Obama was tossed softball questions which he seemed prepared for, as if he or his minions had already seen the script. The press, which has been ruthless in attacking George Bush, seems to have a new mission. Obama will not be an adversary to be regarded skeptically but Great Leader in the North Korean sense. The mainstream media will beg for interviews with the new President, not to put him on the spot, but to show their adulation. The new media mantra will be "oh come let us adore him."
