We became a cult-of-personality banana republic early into Obama's first term.

We are now at the "Dear Leader Raises Monuments to himself" phase.

    How did it wind up looking like a black man. Blacks represent less than 12% (?) of the population in the latest #'s I've seen. And who's going to pay to have all that sand and dirt removed after the first rain or two?

    I wish someone create a mural of me in the dirt using six acres that I can view from my windows.

    Nay, that would be tacky.

    There are conflictig reports. One, said his new russian-made heels and obesity causes his ankles to fracture after a grueling tour of..(lost the article. Don’t know what he was touring.)
    Second report said his ankles are swollen and blistered because he suffers from gout. Now, that he has been hospitalize expect him to slip into a coma and die. The NK’s are starving; I believe this is a beautiful coup.

    We also don't teach little kids to sing songs about our sitting presidents, but they did. It smacks of kim jong ill. Although I did hear last night that kim may have been removed from power while in the hospital for his broken ankles. Unconfirmed reports.

    I 'm confused. It 's made up of dozens of faces resulting in the President 's face? That 's creepy. We don 't put the sitting president 's face in public places like that as a national statement. The idea of the art I think is cool and since it was interactive, why not keep it - but for the giant likeness of the President. Can you imagine the outcry if GW would have done something like that?
