If I responded to crises in my classroom the way the President is responding to the spill it would look like this:
Situation - Huge student fight breaking out
Response -
- Get the non-fighting students together for a meeting while the fight spills into the hallway
- Have an email dialogue with administration advising them of the situation
- Put a proclamation on my web site
- Appoint a student-faculty panel to study the situation
- Observe the growing fight with dismay and say - "Even though I am the teacher I only have so much power. I can't teach them how to handle their anger. I can't even think about getting in the middle. But I WILL hold them accountable for all damages, and set up a commission of proven ineffective flunkies to take care of it."

Great post! Obama has little time to fit in such things like the big problem called the oil spill, around his concerts, playing basketball, and golf outings. Priorities... He is the ultimate player and the American people got played, big time.
