I’m sure President Obama is tired. How could he not be? The job is exhausting. Just look at the “before” and “after” photos of recent American presidents. There’s no fault or foul there, but we shouldn’t hear about it. We shouldn’t read about it, especially not during the first 100 days. This diplomatic faux pas reflects badly on all of us, and it’s a bit disconcerting.

I'm afraid to say this fatigue issue would not be an issue but for the shock of the rigors of the job. How can this be?

Not saying this just to throw dirt at the President, but all accounts indicate it is true: he has never had to work hard in his life - except perhaps at Harvard. Whether it was the status, a salve for his own insecurity, the fancy house, airplane, and perks, or the mistaken notion he would be a ruler rather than a president of a free constitutional republic -- he clearly underestimated the job.

Do you remember how he complained during the campaign how tired he was?

And he had to take several breaks to recharge.

He'll end up with some "medical issue" and quit before his first term is up, and then be lauded for his martyrism.
