Obama Cool and Calm on eve of his Presidency (Barf alert - MSM groveling)
AP via Yahoo! News ^ | 1-19-09 | Charles Babington

If Barack Obama felt nervous about becoming president in a few hours, he didn't show it Monday, as he cracked jokes and breezed through a series of volunteerism events and bipartisan dinners. "I don't sweat," said the 47-year-old man about to inherit responsibility for two wars, an economy in crisis and the helm of the world's lone superpower. "You ever see me sweat?" It was vintage no-drama Obama, who seemed determined to carry his not-too-high, not-too-low demeanor to the Capitol steps for his swearing-in Tuesday. Aides said Obama felt fully prepared. He had practiced and polished his inaugural address, they said, and he was ready for a string of White House meetings Wednesday on the economy, Iraq and other issues that will dominate his first year in office. Obama spent the day moving around Washington to celebrate public service and Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday, switching easily from self-deprecation to faux cockiness to calls for action. "Make sure I do something simple," he told volunteers sprucing up Sasha Bruce House, a shelter for homeless teens in one of Washington's poorer neighborhoods. "Don't give me plumbing or electrical work."

Wait until the North Korean Army marches south. Then, you will see sweat and pee stains all over him.

I think to balance out the pro-Obama bias I will refer to him henceforth as President/Jihadist Barack Obama.

Today's MSM journalism and DNC propaganda are one and the same.

"Make sure I do something simple," he told volunteers

The story of his life so far, summed up in one simple statement.

Too late.

Why should he worry? He has the entire MSM taking turns kneeling and kissing his @$$. In their eyes, he can do no wrong.

“carry his not-too-high, not-too-low demeanor”

Amazing when Bush kept a “stiff upper lip”, he was out of touch and not gounded in reality.

They have made propaganda a real science.
They have the perfect “cover”.

All this MSM “O”rgasim crap is driving me crazy! Obama is a fraud and will never be my President!

That said, I will be watching the Home and Garden Network for the remainder of the week.

Norks into South Korea
Russia goes after the Ukrainians in the spring
China goes after Taiwan.
Iran goes after Isreal and meets Epic Fail.

Every tinpot dictator with a tank is going to be making a stab for more power in the post Pax-American world.

Yeah, it's going to be an interesting year.

Nope. He will consider our troops in SK expendable, and will ask the UN to issue a strongly worded expression of regret.
