Hey, Lew, give the god-king some credit.  He did have a meeting — and at the White House! — where people sat around and talked about the problem.  He has also flown to the Gulf for a photo-op.  Do you suppose we will see him, neck-deep in the mess, struggling to put the plug into the outlet?  Perhaps the MSNBC crowd will show up to lend a hand — instead of a microphone — to “do what [they] can to make this presidency work.”
