Should we make a big deal if...

Here I sit thinking of all the issues we should be concerned about. I have read the other posts by my fellow classmates, and may I say good ones !! This is what I am writing about today. Should we make a big deal if President Obama makes an appearance on The Tonite Show? In the interview he made a remark about his bowling skills and the special Olympics. When I awoke the next morning it was all over the news. Yes it was a silly unnecessary comment, he is human, and we all slip up. With the war going on, the economy, the missing children in the nation, the homeless, the elderly not able to afford to live, is it really that huge to make it front page news, all day long. Reporters and news teams, have they NEVER EVER slipped up on camera? We expect our President to be flawless, he is not. By no means should any political official engage in illegal activity, but human we all are. Locally in North County all that air time should of been spent showing the picture of the 14 year old girl from Escondido and her missing since Feburary.

  1. Awesome! I completely agree! It is ridiculous the things that some people concern themselves with, and often to such an obsessive degree. It's hard for some people to understand that they can't put unreachable expectations even on those who should be held to the highest.

  2. I completely agree. It was a stupid thing for him to say, but in the big picture its not a huge deal. but then again i think it's funny how some people have a double standard. What would people have said if Bush said the same exact thing? I believe it would have been turned into a much bigger deal.
