ANandy, since I regard most of the people who were fortunate enough to occupy the White House
over the last decade or so as cardboard-cutout caricatures of what actual leaders should be, then no, our current President”s fortunes
did not figure into the sentiment behind the cartoon.
To clarify, I would simply point to the first part of dtroutma’s posting, with which I agree.

When I read the latest updates about the economy, my first thought isn’t ” Gosh, how will this affect Obama?”
To do so would probably mean I was a Beltway insider
( or, totally divorced from reality, but I repeat myself). I belabor all this because I think ANandy’s comment
highlights a problem, if unintentionally, that has been the
norm in Washington for some time-seeing everything through the prism of politics. All of our so-called leaders
do it, which is why so little gets done.
