In another time and space, this column today would have been dedicated to Christmas carols to sooth the body and soul off the travails of the year. However, the president's engagement with the media last Sunday raised fundamental questions of national importance that demand we pause the merry making to pay homage to our civic obligations.

It is honestly embarrassing for a head of state to struggle before the nation on his administration's achievements 15 months into office.
