Me, Myself and I

President Obama’s epic egotism is reaching such stratospheric heights that it now rivals that of even the mighty John Edwards, self-proclaimed Most Beautiful Man Alive™.

According to Fox News, the president has managed to talk about himself 1,198 times during a mere 41 speeches so far this year.

Not bad!

But, really, what better topic is there?

The choice is either to speechify about the myriad problems afflicting the US (boooorrrring!) or wax lyrical on an issue of which he never tires – his very own self.

This should come as no surprise, after all, from the man who saw fit to give Queen Elizabeth II an iPod stuffed to bursting with a variety of photos/songs/speeches, all of which centered around, erm, him.

Sure, he’s a member of pretty much the most elite club going, but one’s achievements are amplified by modesty and diminished by pride, a lesson that the 44th president has yet to learn.

Could it perhaps be that the popular worship of the president, led by the ever-faithful MSM, is contributing to his exaggerated sense of self?

Just try telling me that this shrine wouldn’t make you believe your own hype.

Enjoy it while you can, Mr. President, because nothing lasts forever.
