A Case of Trying Too Hard

I'm not one to criticize progressive blogs very often, but Think Progress just laid into "W" for holding a PR event with the American Idol kids after his Mid-East Press Conference, intimating that the President is not taking the Mid-East crisis seriously because he met with the Idols immediately after the event. Should he have postponed the event for an hour later? Two hours? Granted, the President seems to be confused about which direction to go with Hezbollah and Israel, but I doubt a few pictures with celebs is going to hurt the process.

Lets stick to the meat of issue, please, and leave the empty rhetoric to the right. Thanks.
