| Jonah Goldberg, National Review By now you've heard what he told NBC's Matt Lauer. "I don't sit around just talking to experts because this is a college seminar," Obama said. "We talk to these folks because they potentially have the best answers, so I know whose ass to kick, right?" Riiiiiiight.... It's like a Tonight Show joke. Leno: "The president is so dorky . . . " Audience: "How dorky is he?" "He's so dorky, when he gets angry he convenes a panel of experts to tell him whose ass to kick." And speaking of The Tonight Show, let me reassure both editors and readers of family newspapers everywhere about my use of the word "ass." Historian Steven Hayward reminds me that in 1979, Jimmy Carter responded to Ted Kennedy's primary challenge by declaring he would "whip his ass." It was one of those moments of presidential lameness that conjures the same bile of pity, schadenfreude, and heebie-jeebies one feels upon seeing a middle-aged balding dude with a long gray ponytail dancing at a rave. Anyway, Johnny Carson repeated Carter's ass-whipping remark in his opening monologue, without any punch line, explaining that he simply wanted to aggravate the network censors. After all, you can't get in trouble for quoting the president of the United States accurately. Much like the ass-whipping Jimmy Carter, Obama is in danger of becoming a figure of ridicule, which is particularly ominous for a presidency that runs almost entirely on high-octane rhetoric.... In danger of becoming a figure of ridicule? I think it's already a little past that point: |

| #5 ION NEWS KERALA > SCIENTISTS DOUBLE THE ESTIMATE OF OIL FLOWS [loss rates] IN THE GULF OF MEXICO. versies RENSE/TOPIX [old] > OIL VOLCANO PRESSURE TO STRONG FOR CONTAINMENT. I'm still waiting for BP andor USA to tell us the DEPTH + BREADTH, ETC. OF THE GULF OIL FIELDS IN RELATION TO WORLD TOTE RESERVES/CAPACITY. IMO OWG-NWO + "GLOBALISM" [US-Global Socialist-Govtism Order] ARE NOT MORAL OR GOOD REASONS TO INTENTIONALLY WASTE + DESTROY NOT ONLY A VITAL WORLD ENERGY RESOURCE, BUT TO FORCIBLY DAMAGE IFF NOT DESTROTHE WHOLE OF HUMAN CIVILIZATION BY "UNIVERSALLY" ENTRENCHING AN IDEO WHOSE POWER + DURATION IS ULTMATELY THREATENED BY SAME. |

| #4 It's just a matter of time before websites dedicated to ass-kicking Obama jokes (the mirror images of the roundhouse-kicking Chuck Norris jokes) spring up. |
