who will become the most insufferable in light of the braggadocio behavior we're likely to receive?

If Obama really wanted to rub the Republicans' noses in it, he should start carrying around a sceptre. Nothing too showy...just enough to get his point across.

No offense to Cali, but I think it's a lot easier to be obnoxious when you are not in power.

Forget the scepter. Break out the fasces.

Ave Obama, Rex Imperatorque Americanus.

I am not sure that would anger the Repubs as much.

A sceptre is less about unity and more about power.

Plus, once you have a sceptre, you are only one step away from rocking a mitre, baby! How long has it been since a President gave a SOTU address with a sceptre and a mitre? Regardless of your politics, you have to admit that it would be rad.

I dunno, he tends to look dorkie when not in his business suit. Remember his silly bike episode?

I can only imagine how ridiculous that looked to serious cyclists such as yourself.

I rarely ride a bike anywhere and his get-up looked offensive. I am surprised someone didnt photoshop training wheels onto that pic.

At least he was wearing a helmet.

I lost all respect for him as an athlete then and there. And then I saw him try some other athletic event and remembered "White Men Can't Jump", a classic from years ago.

Religion rises inevitably from our apprehension of our own death. To give meaning to meaninglessness is the endless quest of all religion. When death becomes the center of our consciousness, then religion authentically begins. Of all religions that I know, the one that most vehemently and persuasively defies and denies the reality of death is the original Mormonism of the Prophet, Seer and Revelator, Joseph Smith.
