"But when he failed to immediately step up to the microphones in Hawaii after the Christmas terror and thank the passengers for bravely foiling the plot that his intelligence community had failed to see, President Cool reached the limits of cool. " -Maureen Dowd-

The Obama magic is wearing thin if MODO is jumping him. The media is definitely cooling and becoming more critical.

....I keep waiting for an Obama tipping point....a point where the sheeple are going to realize they’ve been duped by a slick talking empty suit...maybe, just maybe, we’ve reached it.

I think I know the PERFECT job for Barack Obama! He is so cool ... he speaks so well ... and best of all, he can READ!
I want to see Barack Obama reprise the "Easy Reader" role played originally by Morgan Freeman in the old PBS "Electric Company" series.

Our professorial president is no feckless W., biking through Katrina.No, he was waiting in line trying to decide what flavor of shaved ice he wanted.

I would not call him “Captain Obvious.” More like Private Obvious. He spent the first 9 months of his Presidency in willful disregard of the obvious.

One can only help that the NY/DC leftist intelligentsia that blindly supported this buffoon turn on him with guns and knives and help destroy themselves from the inside out.

Let's see, let's see, where is it...
Unlike the Republicans, who have yet to take responsibility for a single disastrous thing they did, President Obama said ...
No, not quite...
Our professorial president is no feckless W., biking through Katrina.
THERE it is!
OK, didn't want Dowd to get a ticket for not including that legally-required insult.

One of the reasons that Captain Obvious has become an internet meme is because he
