  Kinda reminds me of the opening of the Lynda Carter “Wonder Woman” series.

  Make your own jokes.

• [querent]

  Really? I remember talking with black kids on mtsu’s campus who were wearing obama t-shirts, and wondering, “why?” Like, cause he’s black? Read his speech to aipac. or his comment on the bombing of gaza jan 2009. this man is not a hero. he is not different.

• [Trent Hawkins]

  hold on a tick… Someone was reading Drew Carey’s Twitter?

• [johnphantom]

  Too bad.

  He is a marker for what the USA has become.

  Unfortunately, this marker shows that he is like all other politicians, and shows nothing of what he promised.

  I will go back to never voting again, unless Palin runs. I will vote against her, no matter what – she is a bimbo.

  • [rebdav]

    I don’t think the bimbo thing is a real problem, or even an appropriate insult, everyone seemed to understand man-bimbos like Bill Clinton and JFK.

    Not qualified to lead?… Probably more openly than everyone else who shouldn’t be allowed to run for office.

  I took this one in Angola, his face was on a ton of stuff there. http://www.flickr.com/photos/52032399@N00/3822825049/

• [igpajo]

  I kind of like this one better.

  • [Talia]

    Good grief. What an appalling site. Just another cesspit for the far-right crazies. I’m sorry I gave it any traffic.

    • [freshacconci]

      I’ll echo that. It is funny however to read those comments from a year ago.

  • [The Mudshark]

    I like both.

  • [Dak]

    I kinda like this one better.

    Classic.

• [C White]

  He looks high.

• [Rob Beschizza]

  But only one has green lipstick and sparkles.

  • [Antinous / Moderator]

    I think that Michelle gave him a makeover. He needed it.

• [Anonymous]

  I prefer this one.

  It’s the same guy, right?

• [Anony Mouse]

  Is anyone else getting a sort of Rocky Horror vibe from this? Dr Barackenfurter?

  • [Anonymous]

  “Splendid”? Yes.

  “Definitive”? No.

  Here is a whole wonderful gallery of Obama paintings:

  Definitely photoshopped…

• [Anonymous]

  The fabric is by South African company ‘Shine Shine’, designed by the highly productive Piet Pienaar and Heidi Chisholm. It’s a contemporary take on ‘traditional’ African cotton print design – itself a hybrid cultural object (see Yinka Shonibare).

  Green lips eh’…..
  He’s an alien, GET ‘IM!

  This just in, the birthers already said that two years ago, move along.

• [Anonymous]

  He’s kind of a big deal.

  I have six yards of the fabric that I purchased when I was in South Africa last year. It’s slightly different colors and the whole fabric contains a lot more interesting imagery. Roses, town cars, green birds, the phrase: “hooray for the president.” I’ll sell it to the highest bidder.
