Election? What Election?

By Baxter

So David Frum, who is selling an e-book, has decided he's frantically worried about all the serious stuff President Obama will have to handle as, well, President — and that no other Chief Executive has ever had to handle such crises before!

This is ridiculous. As we said, David Frum is peddling something, so that means he turns up on all the shows we care about and, then, pens laughingly hyper articles for websites like The Daily Beast.

We cats ask: When has an American President not been dealing with "turmoil on the horizon"? Will the Beast start running breaking news stories such as: "Pope Is Lifelong Catholic"? "Republicans Criticize Taxes"? "Business Leaders Decry Regulation"? "Super Bowl MVP Credits Teammates For Win"?

Americans — outside of the 30-percent, far-right fringe, of course — have demonstrated that they're more than willing to give President Obama a fair shot, and not hold him responsible for things he cannot reasonably control. So it sounds to us like Frum is singing from the same old Republican hymnal — the one dictating that Barack Obama must be blamed for everything.

How tired. How lazy. How boring. We cats HISS (in between yawns).
