In a shocking twist of common sense, the president apparently 'responds more to mass media than to the substance of underlying events.' Oh, I'm sorry, did I miss the part where governance turned into a live reality show recap? So let me get this straight: rather than dealing with issues directly, policy is being guided by the latest headline like a weather vane in a hurricane. It's like watching a captain steer by the glow of gossip rather than the mapâexcept the ship is the country, and everyone's on board praying it doesn't hit an iceberg named Consequences.
