#2 "Yes, he's an intriguing and appealing figure."

I have to wonder if I am a member of the same species as the writer. To me O is about as intriguing and appealing as dandruff.

#3 I agree. Every time I see his picture on (yet another) magazine cover, I want to throw up.

#4 "As visibility goes up, so do expectations and vulnerability,"

Barry, a quick solution. Leave the kids upstairs with granny, take Queen Michelle and go hide somewhere in the White House basement. Rahm will know where you are and keep in touch by crackberry. The sooner you turn OFF that NEW SOCIALIST IDEA MACHINE, the better we'll all be.

#5 Yeah, chalk me up as another one, sick to death of seeing him or Michelle on magazine covers at the super-market check-out stand. I'd take a quiet oath to never buy another one of those magazines again - but I didn't buy them before, so a buycott (deliberate miss-spelling there)would have no effect.

#6 If things improve soon, the president will claim the credit. If they don't, it's all his fault -- even though he had nothing to do with creating this crisis and doesn't have all that much direct ability to solve it, either.

In other words only Bush could fail to solve the problem.

#7 There is one magazine cover which should bear his photo - American Gun - and a caption "Gun Salesman of the Year".
