Steve Jobs was described as having an aura around him, which would inspire everybody around him, and make everybody ooh and aah at his brilliance and be positively convinced he was right... even if he was evangelizing a monochrome monitor on a $3,000.00 computer. They called it the "Steve Jobs Reality Distortion Field."
No matter how often I respectfully write "President Obama," or how much I hear "President Obama," I still grit my teeth and mutter "I don't ______ing believe it. President Obama? President Obama?" Even my computer flags "Obama" as a misspelling, as if there is no stinkin' way this guy should be President. But there he is, strutting more than the Arrogant Texan ever did, chin high in the sky, talking like it's his gift to us to drone on and on and on about something or other. And this terrible feeling, deep in my gut, the fear which gnaws at me from inside, is that this guy will never be found out for the fraud he is. He could be standing in the smoldering wreckage of the Sears Tower, grabbing a bullhorn from a fireman and giving a thousand word discourse on why it's our fault... and everybody would think he was the reincarnation of Winston Churchill. I think it is more likely that the 22nd Amendment will be repealed than this will be a one-term administration.
