Is Obama president yet?

And who's that other guy in the White House? As George Bush continues his vanishing act, Barack Obama steps into the spotlight, two months early, to calm a jittery nation.

    It's actually a little ridiculous.

    I like Obama and all, but the truth of the matter is that he isn't the president yet. Everything he says or does should not be of such grave importance, yet.

    If people find that calming, fine, but there's nothing he can do about anything at this point.
