He's no Dr. Pepper!


As the president prepares to give his first State of the Union address, the news media is chock full of anticipation on what he will say. Will he say this or that? Meanwhile, on the radio ( a peak from the administration), the following sound byte gives us a hint:

White House press secretary Robert Gibbs said expect to see the president at times “feisty” within his speech this evening.

President Obama recently has sounded belligerent, bellicose and sometimes obnoxious. I think that he might think that he's the president of a banana republic. His "exigente" demeanor is more fitting for Juan Valdez. He sometimes sounds condescending as he lectures Americans on what he will do, and what needs to be changed.
I think Obama's getting his advice on how to be president reading Canon Law.
..
What's this now, the Fight Club?

He's beginning to sound more like Muhammad Ali, or Macho Camacho, rather than the chief executive of last bastion of freedom in the world. We see a change alright, from a eloquent lawyer, to a brawler.

Where's all the anger coming from? "You can't always get what you want"...as the song says...
Down boy, Down boy!

President Obama vows to continue fight against economic woes at ...
New York Daily News -
Kenneth R. Bazinet - ‎Jan 23, 2010‎
"I'm not going to win every round," Obama told the audience in Elyria, Ohio. "I can promise you there will be more fights in the days ahead. ...


I think that the president forgets that he was the lesser of two evils.
He may think that he won a popularity contest which entitles him to do whatever he wants; But, he is forgetting that what took place in November, 2008 was something similar to the Cola Taste Test.
Coke vs Pepsi...
.
Obama is not Tab, or the un-Cola - 7Up. No, he's not Royal Crown Cola, either.
Again, he's not Minute Maid, or Sunny De lite. He forgets we could have had a V8!

Dr. Pepper may have originally been one of those concoctions that snake oil salesmen sold as a cure-all, a panacea. No, the president is not Dr. Pepper or Doctore Papa.
If there is an American papa? That title and office probably belongs to Cardinal William Joseph Levada, the prefect of the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith (previously the Office of the Holy Inquisition).

Let's get ready to stumble: And in this corner...Not Marvin "the Brawler" Haggler, or
Dwight Braxton AKA Muhammad Qawi.
.
You call this "change"?

In this corner.......in the smoke gray Armani suit, at 6'3", weighing 150 pounds: Yoohoo!

No substance, no nutritional value:

Just water, bubbles and dyes...

Arsenio.
