Well, Sure...

Networks and bloggers and newsmagazines galore have been paying attention to President Obama's statement that he has been talking with both experts investigating and regular folks affected by the British Petroleum oil well disaster. This is, he says, so he will know "whose ass to kick."

I might suggest starting with the folks within your administration, Mr. President, who spent more than a few days wondering what to do and even who should be the one doing it. And while you're talking tough, you might bend the ear of the Chief Executive Officer of BP a little -- after all, you're the President and it's not about what he says to you, it's what you say to him, perhaps even hinting that one of the targets for the executive footwear might be his well-paid behind. And go ahead and toe the bottom line on some of the White House staff, who seem to be taking a break from the "nightmares" the spill is causing them to doff some shirts and quaff some suds.

Fortunately, we were able to lay to rest the question of what you thought about instant replay in Major League Baseball, and whether or not MLB Commissioner Bud Selig made the right decision in not awarding a perfect game to pitcher Armando Galarraga after a blown call by umpire Jim Joyce robbed him of that chance. In all fairness, I can't make fun of you over that, Mr. President, because everyone who's heard about that issue has an opinion on it, so you're entitled to one as well. I can and do laugh out loud at the sheer vacuity of the blow-dried NewsMuppet who asked you for that opinion, but all I can catch you on is not looking him in the eye and saying, "You want to know what I think about what?"

Maybe you should call up his boss and let him know whose ass he should be kicking. Make it a party.
