Vanity Fair thinks maybe Obama should be added to Mount Rushmore

December 3, 2009, 2:00 am · 10 comments

Sure, the guy’s only been president for 10 months. And sure, his approval rating is going down faster than Adam Lambert at an award show. And sure, the 2010 elections look like a disaster for his party. And sure, he’s made us look like chumps on the international stage. And sure…well…you get the idea.

Nevertheless, the good folks at Vanity Fair decided that Barack Obama should included in a survey that asked which president should be added to Mount Rushmore.

Kennedy won the vote with 29%. Reagan was second with 20%. FDR was third with 18%. But the guy described in the first paragraph of this came in fourth with 16%.

C’mon, people, at this point the Obama chia pet seems more reasonable than Mount Rushmore.

whyle they are at it, they should throw John Gotti, Charley Manson, and Richard Speck up there-as long as they are going with criminals!

Just the fact that the idiots in America think JFK was a president worthy of Rushmore is beyond idiocy-and then add this moron to the ballot-simply amazing.

Kennedy did the same thing Clinton did-soiled a lot of sheets with the slime of hookers and other undesireables…..Gosh Americans are dumb-Liberal Americans that is.

The only one in that list that would be deserving of rushmore is Reagan.

Since Obama is reputed to be an amalgamation of all the best qualities of each of the men already up there, and since the geology won’t hold anymore faces, they should just change the features of each of the men to make them a composite merged with Obama: George Obamington (courageous), Barack Jefferson (thoughtful), Abrahussein Lincoln (resolute), and Teddy Soetorevelt (strong).

And they could convert the visitors center into a temple with the observation deck as a giant prayer rug where the likes of Chris Mathews and Olberman could go to pray/tingle.

If I’d posted this comment at Daily Kos, they wouldn’t have gotten the sarcasm. Instead, they would have rushed to thank me for my inspired vision.

Very Clever! And your comment about the Koz kids not getting it is sooooo right – their little fevered brains don’t have room for humor.

No, that’s Rushmore not Flushmore.

If they were to place Obama on Mt. Rushmore it would be a white as a ghost Obama, this is totally unacceptable. I propose carving out a 200 ton piece of coal placed on top of Devil’s Tower in Wyoming where he could be on his own pedestal.
