Inauguration Advice

Instead of a religious invocation delivered by a raging homophobe, president-elect Obama would have been better off if he had asked Tiger Woods to kick off the inauguration by sharing a few golfing tips.

In a still photo taken yesterday, Mr. Obama's form looks OK to us. But in the older video, below, it's pretty clear he needs to "keep his eye on the ball" and "stay down on the ball" through his swing, as they say on the links.

That advice works, too, when it comes to the Iraq War, Afghanistan, the economy, restoring constitutional liberties, global climate change, and sending Ossama bin Laden on his way to meet those 72 virgins.
