During his first 100 days as president of the United States, Barack Obama revealed how different he is from all the white men who preceded him in the Oval Office, and the differences run deeper — in substance and style — than the color of his skin. Barack Hussein Obama is the nation’s first hip president. This, of course, is subject to debate. But watch him walk. Listen to him talk. See the body language, the expressions, the clothes. He’s got attitude, rhythm, a sense of humor, contemporary tastes.

Truth be told, his style is rooted in something elusive and hard to define.

Today the UN admitted that NK has Nukes, Swine flu has hit the US and the CDC can’t do anything about it and all the media can write about is “The One’s” hipness.

He’s Ercole geek, stiff and plastic, smarmy and arrogant.
