At the Georgetown-Duke basketball game this afternoon, President Obama
visited with CBS announcer Verne Lundquist who showed footage of the
president playing basketball, NBC News reports.

Lundquist: "Mr. President, you're a left-hander, do you have any
trouble going to your right?"

Obama: "I can go to my right now and then. I went to the House
Republican caucus the other day. But there's no doubt I have a stronger
left hand."


It was a joy watching Obama at that GOP conclave in Baltimore. Later, I
read that Faux News gave little attention to it on its fake news and
talk show programming that day. The reason was obvious: Obama sliced and
diced the GOP'ers, and did it pleasantly, and with humor.

Fox gave it "little attention"? Hell, they cut away from it, just when
it was getting good. ;-)

It's also obvious that the GOP'ers are going to "obstruct" whenever they
can. I hope the Dems are sharp enough to focus on that and make a big
issue out of it.

Maybe, maybe not. There are a least several in the House, that are
reconsidering the prospect of running on the "No" platform. Personally,
I'm of the opinion the Brown election, Tea Parties, etc. are not so much
anti-Obama, as anti-Washington. Obama's numbers are not that bad, when
you consider Congress' numbers.
