Barack the Barbarian

From a NPR article this morning.

"Sometimes, plans change at the last minute. Wednesday morning the president decided to hit the gym in Des Moines. Reporters waited next door at a coffee and comic book shop. That's where we spotted a comic book called Barack the Barbarian.

The cover showed a shirtless Obama, abs rippling, holding a battle ax in one hand and an elephant tusk in the other. Sitting on top of the elephant was his nemesis, Red Sarah, laughing maniacally. I bought the comic and some of the White House staff asked to see it.

Back on Air Force One, when we were done with the serious questions, I decided to ask spokesman Bill Burton about Barack the Barbarian. He'd seen the comic book. "I liked it," he said, "because it had few words and lots of pictures, which made it easy to understand."

thats rich coming from the spokensman for the president...
