Obama, Bush - their appropriate roles

Steve Benen points to what is happening.

MSNBC had a chyron this morning that read, "Obama will address economic woes today, Pres. Bush to pardon turkey."

Sounds to me like the relevant players now realize their role.

So Obama is the President two months early because of the vacuum of power in Washington; meanwhile the lame duck Bush pardons a turkey.

I doubt that Bush has the imagination needed to empathize with the turkey.
