So all the news is talking about Sen. Obama's trip abroad. But the big
news (if this is news?) is well, he's acting presidential. Already. Why, he hasn't even been officially nominated, let alone elected. He's walking around shaking hands, making speeches, talking to foreign leaders, visiting the troops in Afghanistan and Iraq, making shots outside the paint. What the heck's going on?
Uh. Please. What happened to dress and act like the job you want?
Reminds me of the dichotomy that happens when certain actions and behaviors are described according to gender. Good thing Sen. Obama is acting presidential. Someone has to do it.
FYI this week's New Yorker has several thoughtful letters in response to "that cover."
