OBAMA'S BEER SUMMIT

An ivy league professor, who happens to be a friend of the President of the United States, is arrested for disorderly conduct after an altercation with police. His arrest dominated the news cycle and, seemingly, the President's attention. President Obama went out of his way to insert the White House into the flap.

The President even made room in his (what I presume must be) busy week to host a "beer summit" with the professor and the policeman.

What's wrong with this picture?

Two wars, a failing economy, health care woes, crumbling infrastructure, massive national debt, alarming drop out rates among minority teenagers, packed prisons, foreclosure crisis, high unemployment...........

Focus, Mr. President, focus.
