I don't know which country Adam lives in, but the president isn't "in charge" of me.

Trying to make a geeky, wonkish metrosexual into John Wayne is much more than I'd ever attempt. Good luck, guys & gals!

If they had a sense of shame they would be ashamed of themselves. All that is missing is "do you like him or do you like him like him. The media have turned into a group of grade school girls.

One more example of why I gave up on the little 3 (NBCBSABC) in the early ‘80’s. I only tune in for sports. Otherwise, it’s Fox, ESPN and other stations for relatively unbiased stuff.

I can’t read more than a part of the above.

It’s 0bama-porn and makes me very thankful I do not own a TV.

One of my favorite movies. “They all have one, you’ll see.” ... “You repo guys are out to lunch!”

He’s So Fine: CBS Early Show Explores ‘How Cool is “The Man” Obama?’

Stories of the "How cool is X?" variety are the stuff of enthusiast publications such as the teen fan magazines of yesteryear. Whatever the reporters and producers of CBS news might be, it would be a grave mistake to confuse them with journalists.

How long before this generates backlash? I certainly cannot believe it is anywhere near *cool* to go on and on about anyone’s *cool*. When do the pre-teenagers rebel and redefine cool again, for their generation?

I think my response, if I ever have to endure this in person, is going to be:”Oooooooh, that Obama!” (exaggerated swoon)

(rolls eyes)

It’s not hero worship. It is meme-setting. They are simply presenting the inculcation du jour.

It won't be long before the people get to see that Obama can't walk on water, transform water into wine, heal the sick, raise the dead and abort the pregnant.

Then what?

This is getting so over the top that even some of the sheeple will get tired of it.

“WOW is this the way it is gonna be for the next 4 years...”

The MSM will be like this for his whole time in orifice.

BUT, the people will only give him about 6 months - then the patina of Bush-blaming will wear too thin and we’ll see if The One has anything or whether he’s just an empty robe.

I don’t want my president to be cool. I want him (or her) to take charge and do what’s right for the country. Cool is for high school cliques.

And since when has being a street thug been cool? I mean, outside of the ghetto culture.

Me thinks there’ll be 4 years of this drivel... they can only hit the Bush punching bag for so long before the sheeple that watch CBS’s Early Show get bored... then CBS will be wondering wtf... where did our ad revenue go?
