Imagine you’re two HUGELY successful journalists. Imagine ONE of you has been hosting MEET THE PRESS since AUGUST, then quit imagining and read this exchange between Tom Brokaw and Charlie Rose from last Friday night’s “The Charlie Rose Show”.
ROSE: I don’t know what Barack Obama’s worldview is.
BROKAW: No, I don’t either.
ROSE: I don’t know how he really sees where China is.
BROKAW: We don’t know a lot about Barack Obama and the universe of his thinking about foreign policy.
ROSE: I don’t really know. And do we know anything about the people who are advising him?
BROKAW: You know that’s an interesting question.
ROSE: He is principally known through his autobiography and through very aspirational (sic) speeches, two of them.
BROKAW: I don’t know what books he’s read.
ROSE: What do we know about the heroes of Barack Obama?
BROKAW: There’s a lot about him we don’t know.
I could go on and on about this, but since Shtuey brought this to my attention and his blog already does, I’ll just ask you all to go CHECK IT OUT. Then come back here with a big ol’ shot of something with a HUGE alcohol content and tell me what you think. I’ll be the one with the Patron and the limes in the corner.
And to think just a thread ago I thought that the equity markets and the Russians and ME were the only ones that thought he was a cipher.

It is astonishing. I am slightly reminded of Angel Heart and Louis Cipher.
No tequila for me, tonight. I have to teach at 7:15 AM.!

As the Junior Class Adviser, I will take my shots after my day of selling fund-raising items at our volleyball tournament…but my day might go smoother if I were to practice along the way. (No…I’ll wait.) PUMAs have been saying we don’t know enough about the 0…but there were too many just interested in the phrase of Change. I hope they aren’t surprised when that includes the constant Changing of his mind…or Changing what he said (WORM) or changing our hopes and dreams.
