President Obama famously announced yesterday that his position on flip flopping on same-sex marriage had changed evolved. Now, according to him, same-sex marriage is okeydokey.

I have no argument with him. I mean, he did promise change. What I object to is the press’s framing of the momentous moment. In other words, what’s with the word “evolve” and do other politicians hereinafter get to gather under its protective umbrella? Obama’s challenger, Mitt Romney, for example?

If I should turn blue, don’t try the Heimlich maneuver on me. I’m simply holding my breath until that happens.
