The Bashing of a President Before He Even Takes Office

[Proton Soup]

there's a lot that is different this time. Obama is probably spending more time in the spotlight prior to the inauguration than any other president elect. and even though he came out right away and said to the world that he's not the president yet, he's already acting as though he is. and yes, he's got no real power, but he does have the bully pulpit. president bush staying in hiding from the press except to pardon turkeys only makes it more so.

so, there you go, they're bashing him because he is the president. situation normal is, well, normal.
