He comes and goes, from state to state, but Barack Obama still hasn't told us what change he is going to change when he changes from a junior Senator into a President.
No matter. It's doubtful the media will ask him about his change revolution. Maybe he's talking about boxer shorts or socks. Maybe he's going to change his hairdo. Maybe he needs change for a twenty.
Spare Some Change?
If you thought the news guys are hot to crack the case of change, you'd be wrong. Here's NBC anchor Brian Williams on reporters covering Obama. You may remember Williams as the guy from a couple of months back who said that Mother Earth is the person of the year because she is an abused woman.
"Journo Love for Obama
NBC's Brian Williams took to MSNBC today at noon and had this to say:
WILLIAMS: I interviewed Lee Cowan, our reporter who covers Obama, while we were out yesterday and posted the interview on the web. Lee says it's hard to stay objective covering this guy. Courageous for Lee to say, to be honest. The e-mail flood started out we caught you guys, we never did trust you. That kind of thing. I think it is a very interesting dynamic. I saw middle-aged women just throw their arms around Barack Obama, kiss him hard on the cheek and say, you know, I'm with you, good luck. And i think he feels it, too." --Mediabistro.com
Courageous? Not quite. A professional news anchor should not find bias "an interesting dynamic."
Here's what I had to say about change a while back.
