One year? A hundred days? At least a week?
It's beginning to look like President Obama's grace period has lasted just a day.
Already, the press has begun to ask questions, ones that, surprisingly, ponder the new President's preparedness for the job. As an example, read 'What we don't know about Obama', from Politico.com (and posted on Yahoo News).
He's so new he needs a map to find the oval office, and we can't give him a break?
In truth, Obama has been under the microscope increasingly since the election. It's a measure of how much America - the World, really - looks to him for answers. In the vacuum that was the Bush administration in the second half of 2008 (some would argue longer), where else would we have looked?
Inauguration Day, busy as it was, may have been the only 'honeymoon' Barack Obama will get.

Sharp post. I thought it would last until the Sunday news shows. Here we go, though. This is what I wanted, and I'm ready to offer honest cheerleading and fair criticism.
