Obama Not Too Busy To Fill Out NCAA Brackets

I haven't had the time to do my NCAA picks yet, but apparently Barack Obama has his priorities in order. I guess wrecking our economy takes a backseat to basketball.
President Obama may be taking a political risk in his quest to fix health care, but he's playing it safe when it comes to his March Madness picks.

The Hoopster-in-Chief chose Kansas, Kentucky, Kansas State and Villanova to make the men's Final Four.

It's the second year the President has filled out a bracket for ESPN.

But this was the first time Obama also picked the Final Four in women's college basketball, choosing Connecticut, Stanford, Tennessee and Notre Dame.

His full brackets, including who he thinks will win the championships, will be released on ESPN's SportsCenter on Wednesday.

SportsCenter will also air an interview with Obama at noon.
So now we'll be treated to three weeks of slobbering over Obama on ESPN. Great.

I thought "health care" was his top priority?

It would be really nice if we could have a diversion from politics sometimes and not have to see his face. But no, he's got to be omnipresent 24/7.
