Barak Hussein Obama
Time magazine must have a sense of humor or are stupid. He looks like a black Clinton! More interns in the oval office?!
That doesn’t look like a tobacco cigarette either, from the look on Obama’s face.
Yeah....Mr. Cool....sure....
How sickening can they (TIME) get?!
Person of the Year 2008
Why History Can’t Wait
It is here that we find Barack Obama one soul-freezingly cold December day, mentally unpacking the crate of crushing problems — some old, some new, all ugly — that he is about to inherit as the 44th President of the United States. Most of his hours inside the presidential-transition office are spent in this bland and bare-bones room. You would think the President-elect — a guy who draws 100,000 people to a speech in St. Louis, Mo., who raises three-quarters of a billion dollars, who is facing the toughest first year since Franklin Roosevelt’s — might merit a leather chair. Maybe a credenza? A hutch?
But he doesn’t seem to notice. Obama is cheerfully showing his visitors around, gripping the souvenir basketball he received from Hall of Famer Lenny Wilkens, explaining a snapshot taken the day he played pickup with the University of North Carolina hoops team. (”They are so big and so fast and so strong, you know.”) Then, since those two items basically exhaust the room’s décor, Obama sits down on one of the mesh chairs and launches into a spoken tour of his world of woes. It’s a mind-boggling journey, although he shows no signs of being boggled — unless you count the increasingly prevalent salt in his salt-and-pepper hair. By now we are all accustomed to that Obi-Wan Kenobi calm, though we may never entirely understand it. In a soothing monotone, he highlights the scariest hairpin turns on his itinerary, the ones that combine difficulty with danger plus a jolt of existential risk.

I thought it was Lenny Kravitz for a second.
“Surprise surprise surprise!”
Is anyone surprised?
His biggest accomplishment was fooling the American electorate that he’s not the scum bag we all know he is.
Congrats, Mr. President-elect/savior of the free world/messiah/Chicago thug/Communist/arrogant chump.
Don’t bogart that doobie!
He looks like some wannabe rap singer! Strap on your seat-belt folks we are headed for some serious trouble with this arrogant jerk!
He makes me want to vomit!
"And then the third thing that keeps me up at night is the issue of nuclear proliferation," Obama continues, sailing on through the horribles. "And then the final thing, just to round out my Happy List, is climate change. All the indicators are that this is happening faster than even the most pessimistic scientists were anticipating a couple of years ago."
If memory serves me correctly, another socialist, Adolph Hitler, also earned that award.
Time is publishing this picture of our saviour smoking a joint??? LOL!
Biden will probably be "best hair plug of the year".
Well, that was a bet easily won.
No, that would be DRUDGE!
OK...I was hoping that Drudge picked it up from Time.
