I think there are plenty of reasons to be frustrated with President Obama as he reaches the one-year mark: a stimulus that appears to have dumped a ton of borrowed money into the same old federal bureaucracies; a massive health-care bill put together in secret and certain to be a complicated, often counterproductive mess; a year of engagement with the brutes in Iran that has yielded nothing; bailout after bailout of GM, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac; a Secretary of Homeland Security who sounds oblivious and complacent; an ever-rising deficit; piles of broken promises and unpopular policies that were never mentioned on the campaign trail in 2008 . . .

But judging from Twitter, most of this is small potatoes; plenty of folks are UP IN ARMS over the possibility that Obama’s State of the Union Address might preempt the season premiere of “Lost.”
