    Don't ask me. I think it's weird that people stand when the president walks into the room. The only person I do that for is my plumber, because he charges $175 an hour and I want to be ready to hustle him out as soon as possible.

    respect?! a bit of humility?! in america?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.


    any idiot, including that cute-as-a-button-but-stupid-as-hell little vixen ms. mccain, who doesn't understand or appreciate where simple gestures of respect will get you should read 'she stoops to conquer' by this way old, creepy, (probably) gay, liberal named shakespeare.


    something about more bees with honey than vinegar? speak softly but carry a big stick? one of those?

    @waltzngmatlda:


    Oliver Goldsmith wrote SHE STOOPS TO CONQUER, which was probably first performed sometime in the 1770s, over 100 years after Shakespeare's death. But whatever.
    Megan McCain is an idiot, but you're not making much of a case for yourself here either, e.e. cummings.

    Oh, I thought Meghan was supposedly to be cool, so Rock n' Roll™ and like, edgy. I didn't buy it, she's just another spoiled brat whining because Obama's doing the job the world didn't want her dad to do.

    Talk about making a mountain out of a molehill. A) it was hardly a 'bow'. And B) If you watch Brian Williams for two seconds--with the President or Jon Stewart or anyone else--you just get that that's his personality. Ironic jocular dude. The kind of guy who probably calls his daughter's boyfriend, "Young master [insert name here]!" Meghan needs to calm the eff down and find something--anything, please lady--important to talk about.

    @ChickyOnly: I think it's intended, if anything be in this golden beer-heiress cocoon. See, a friend of mine had her purse snatched in New Orleans. I know, who hasn't? But the eye can only catch like four items in a divergent number of seconds (People = 1; MaGoos = many). She noted the purse snatcher wore a pink hat and a bright red jacket. And that's all she remembered, those easily-discarded items.


    Maybe Ms MaGoo wants us all to concentrate on her Twitter spelling and not her great policy declarations themselves, you think?

    Is NBC so desperate that it needs its top news anchor to enlist the President to tout Conan and SNL? And why wasn't Obama asked to rate the comedic style of Jimmy Fallon? Oh, I see.

    In reply to Obama Disappointed By Fred Armisen's SNL Impersonations
    If you read Doonesbury, the recent comics of the Obama White House emphasize the same point: he's not make-fun-able! Admittedly, it's very early in his term, but he hasn't yet shown any clear character traits that would allow him to be made fun of well in a four panel or two minute increment.


    Disclaimer: I'm not an Obama fangirl, and he's disappointed me many times in his term, he just doesn't seem to have many hilarious personality quirks.

    @spitneybeers: I agree that's the issue. The writers room must be like, "His ears are big!" "He like french mustard on his burgers!" "He likes to act, uhm, like a gentleman and takes his wife out to romantic evenings in the City!"


    A skit on how he's gone back on some of his early (and late) campaign promises would be even less entertaining. For my money, Armisen does a fairly accurate, if thoroughly boring, impression.

    Phil Hartman was such a star, and Clinton and Bush were much better fodder for comedy. One of my favorites: Bill Clinton Visits McDonalds:

    Well, Obama, there's always "Mad Tv"....Keegan Michael Key does a decent job, and I LOVE when Debra Wilson does Oprah and Michael McDonald does (did? he left I think) Dr. Phil.
