Barack Obama has fallen back to Earth.
When he ran for president, Obama said his election would be "the moment the rise of the oceans began to slow." And when he made his first big foreign trip in April, he was hailed by adoring crowds -- and almost-as-adoring politicians -- in Britain, Germany, France and the Czech Republic.
But last week, in Russia and Italy, Obamania was little more than a pleasant memory. Yes, his international polling numbers are still high, but the president encountered hardly any adulation in the streets of Moscow or anywhere else. Instead, Russian strongman Vladimir Putin reportedly gave him a tongue-lashing over a two-hour breakfast, and the tent-bound refugees from Italy's April earthquake mostly wanted to know whether he could rebuild their homes. ("Yes, we camp," their banner said, pointedly.)

Doesn’t point out the samething happening here in the US!!!
They also asked him to raise their dead, cure their leprosy, and turn their water into wine, but Michelle told the peasants to f*** off when they got too close.

Oldeconmybuyer, I think I beat you by about one minute on that... This pic of Obama could chill even the Hottest summer day.
I know, It certainly sounds like the L.A. Times has lost the Thrill concerning Obama.... wonder what was the tipping point for them?

A JULY 4TH TEA PARTY SPEECH IN AMERICA

This is something that should have been said BEFORE the election as it is undoubtedly true. But that would be asking too much of the editorial writers at the LATimes.
“The One” is a bust. ...
Polls. As soon as his popularity starts to drop, they begin to see more people (readers) interested in reading about his failure than his worship. It's all about selling papers.
Obamania - The irrational exuberance of the voluntarily duped masses by a master of manipulation.
LOL! All the Viagra in the world will not strengthen these little eunuchs.
"The end of Obamania"
Don't count on it. Millions of morons still think John Kennedy was A GREEEEAAAAT MANNNNN.
Obama had the makings of a star, and a star he became. Celebrity power sells, and the media was happy to sell it with him. Now his administration has the stink of failure escaping from the seems. Disrespect abroad, economic woes at home, arrogance from the White House, and sinking poll numbers. You can already feel the winds shifting.
Broken celebrities are worth far more to newspapers than intact ones.
I read that Jackie Kennedy Onassis, thought Bobby Kennedy was a Greaaaaaaaaaaaaatttttttttter Mannnnnnnnnnnnnn.
I’m still enchanted with Barry’s pistol-grip ears.
“There may be light at the end of the tunnel after all. “
Who knows? But, interestingly the little box poll shows 83% saying Now Obama needs to show results. Of course, if he manages to show the results he’s promised and desires that won’t be good at all.
When I was in Greece back in the 1970s, I saw in a shop window a photograph of the Athens Acropolis with a greedy looking Jackie-O surveying it from the skies. The caption (in English) was: "Some day all this will be MINE."
When you think about how many utter morons there are out there, you marvel that the world's not in worse shape than it is.
This is overwhelming evidence of the intervention in the world by a benevolent Deity. I just wish He would wump up the intelligence level of the nitwits.
Now is the time where he wags the dog and starts witch hunts to move the public attention from his open destruction of America. Pelosi Threats, Bush Trials, Algore on Global Governance. Yep it’s all window dressing for his Hugo Chavez style take over move.
Saul Alynski would be so proud.
Very, very subtle imagery there in that picture. If you look closely at the eyes only you will get a sense of another time - circa 1865.....Sunken eyes, sallow face jaw and skin loose neck.... hmmmmmm...wonder who the artist was looking at when sketching this out?
Buy the rumor..sell the fact!
It is hard when 10 percent of the World has to carry the other 90 percent..
Heh. I'd be interested in hearing how those companies are doing that stocked up on all that 'historic' commemorative Inauguration crap.
Putz.
A term used very appropriately several years ago with the word “Senator” to very accurately describe Upchucky Schmucky Schumer. Schumer fits the description in every sense of the word!
And so does Zerobama!
LOL - the oceans never rose - all Al Gore warm-mongering...
I saw an ad for Big Lots featuring his commemorative plates for a couple of bucks.
I wait for the day they come out with commemorating prison suit, handcuffs or exile papers to Kenya!
Yes, BO needs to be deported...he is an illegal.

I guess then people will be hocking those Barry coins they were selling on TV!
The JFK plate: A staple at yard sales in these parts, particularly when an older person has died and the house is getting cleaned out.
I’ve seen a few that have JFK, RFK and Fat Ted together, like some Holy Trinity - makes you altogether lose your appetite.
Wouldn’t take any of them, even if they were free.
“This is overwhelming evidence of the intervention in the world by a benevolent Deity.”
Amen! Thank you for writing it.
About time. The wingnuts still believe, though.
If anyone hears anything about today please ping me.
