According to literary scholar Christopher Booker, every narrative in the world, from Gilgamesh to War and Peace to Water for Elephants, can be reduced to one of only seven master plots. Pulp writer Jim Thompson said it better: "There are thirty-two ways to tell a story, and I've used them all, but there is really only one plot: Things are not as they seem."

HorseHooey.
Barack Obama is a lot of things, but one of things he is NOT is “all of us”.
And he DEFINITELY isn’t ME.
To the author, I say: “Speak for yourself, you pathetic liberal mouthpiece.”
What a steaming pantload.

This is true.. How many republicans you know that would return a federal government check?..
We may have NOW a federal government that reflects “the people”..

I saw this article a couple days ago and found it sickening. I thought Esquire was a “mans” magazine. If the author represents the state of manhood in the USA, then I guess we should just turn out the lights. What a crock.

Stevie Boy sounds like he was custom built for kneepads:
Stephen Marche (born 1976) is a Canadian novelist and writer for magazines and newspapers. His first novel, Raymond and Hannah, was published in 2005, and his second Shining at the Bottom of the Sea, in 2007. Both received widespread critical acclaim, in Canada and the United States.[1]
He currently writes a monthly column for Esquire, “A Thousand Words about our Culture,” which in 2011 was a finalist of the American Society of Magazine Editors award for columns and commentary, and a weekly column for the National Post, “Close Reading.”[2] In 2005, he received a doctorate in early modern English drama from the University of Toronto.[3]
Marche has strongly criticized the blasphemy law in Ireland, arguing that it violates contemporary norms about freedom of speech.[4] He is currently working on a book about Shakespeare’s impact on world history.[5]
On October 16, 2010, Marche wrote for the Globe and Mail a column which was criticized by some as “gutter” journalism and which was subsequently pulled from the paper’s website. The column was described by some as a “personal assault” on a political candidate during an election and as representative of “left wing” obsessiveness with weight.[6][7] However, others have argued that the column is not a straightforward “personal assault” on an individual, but rather an interpretation of obesity as a cultural symbol.[8]

this is one really sick piece...it's the intellectual version of "he sends tingles up my...."
I just don't think esquire's circulation is large enough to matter; I'm sure the people that get it do so because it says "im cool" and it contains gratuitous images of scantily clad sluts.

We love Obama even those who claim to despise him because deep in our hearts and all over our lives, we're the same way.. Uh, nope.
In fact, as I have previously stated, I would not perpendicularly traverse a linear travelway in order to micturate upon him were I to ascertain that he was rapidly combining with oxygen.
That is hardly the attitude of someone who 'loves' Obama, sir, so you'd better think again.

Does this man experience spontaneous tension release whenever he gazes upon a picture of “The Divine One?” Does his breathing and heart rate approach a peak moment followed by a total relaxation, followed by a cigarette? Does he experience rapid contractions of his sphincter ani whenever he sees a picture? Liberals do have psycho-sexual pathologies.

Because twenty years from now, we're going to look back on this time as a glorious idyll in American politics, with a confident, intelligent, fascinating president riding the surge of his prodigious talents from triumph to triumph.Man. What is this dumbass smoking?

[We love Obama even those who claim to despise him because deep in our hearts and all over our lives, we’re the same way both inside and outside our jobs, our races, our cities, our countries, ourselves. With great artists, often the most irritating feature of their work is the source of their talent. Obama’s gift is the same as his curse: He’s somehow managed to be like the rest of us, only infinitely more so]
Lordy, the artery in my temple just about popped reading this. Count the difference between myself and Oberfuhrer in Hubble distance.
