I don't think Obama is all that he appears to be . . .
Sure - on the outside, he's a cool, confident "I so got this" President-Elect . . .



But I'll bet that somewhere deep down on the inside, there's still a little Barry saying, "YESS!!!"

1. When the GOPers & their well-financed propaganda machine try and bulldoze him
He'll plow through them like they weren't there.

4. Last night Rachel characterized Obama's "hand on back" move as
an "alpha male" gesture...I love it.

"Step inside little man, I'm about to show you how this is done."

gives you a big smile and a hows the family, puts his hand on your shoulder, and quickly and quietly removes one of your kidneys. so glad to see that pick. give george the full treatment, barack.

and yeah, i am sure he is loving it.

7. Or, "Show me the way, Boy!"
I thought Bush looked stunned and Laura was the one who started the greeting with one eyebrow in the air.

13. Can't bushco even afford a good suit?
Why are all his suits lumpy and wrinkled? The fabric pulls in all the wrong directions.

Look at Obamas suit, very smooth.

16. Because Bush doesn't know how to walk or stand anymore!
You put a hungover ape in a good suit, he's still just gonna look like a hungover ape in a suit.

19. Aren't affordable suits actually...
LESS likely to wrinkle than expensive ones?

I've read several men's magazines that say to save your expensive suit for special occasions, NOT to wear every day to work; because of maintenance as well as more obviously not spoiling something pricey. Affordable everyday suits are easier to clean and are more durable. I wonder if Obama got his for less than $200 at an S&K or something-- just like the dress Michelle made famous cost less than $150 at White House Black Market-- and might still be extremely difficult to get.

14. This is why President-elect Obama is the perfect foil...
...against Vladimir Putin. He is an iron fist in a velvet glove. Where Preznit Fuckstick was played like a Joe by the ex-KGB colonel, Obama is pure sniper and will command respect from his Russian counterpart.
