I missed yesterday...and the events of this morning killed me for most of the day. But I'd like to point readers to
this White House page which is used to ask questions on a regular basis of White House administration people. So who's the latest guy to answer questions? Perhaps someone from the OMB, or Treasury, or the USDA? Nope, it's
Michael Waltrip, a NASCAR driver.
The reason this contributed to the
credibility gap is that it is so blatantly political. Instead of concentrating on real questions we're forced to see idiotic ones like the very first question asked:

I just like the realistic feeling I get when I do EA Sports NASCAR Thunder – it is a lot of fun. My palms sweat because it is so realistic and the tracks look so real. It is a good way to check into what we do.
I'm glad to know Michael's palms sweat when playing EA Sport NASCAR Thunder. What the hell this has to do with the White House is beyond me...oh, wait. It's politics, pure and simple. That's where the credibility is called into question, because all the sleight-of-hand won't distract Americans from the real problems facing us. Like jobs.
