While I didn't think much of JFK as a president, he had something that B.H.O. doesn't.

Kennedy had a keen sense of humor. Barraaack (why does that sound like a Bronx cheer?) has evidenced no sense of humor whatsoever.

Bingo. Imho, you've hit upon an important point. Obama has bought into his own hype and has limited self-awareness. Mrs. Obama is keenly aware of his egocentricity, and has commented on it publicly, although not recently - lol. Obama lacks any form of self deprecating humor.

He had to have a sense of humor, he had Vaughn Meder? If you don't remember, he was a brilliant impressionist, that had a hey day with Kennedy.

He also was high as a kite on a plethora of dope....basically all the good stuff.

Taking testosterone and adrenaline dope for his Addison's disease which had almost killed him.

And was shagging some of the finest "nani" in the world at the time.

I'd be laughing and heehawing too.
