So, yes, OMG, the president appears to be in fighting shape. Hooray for Navy SEALS and push-ups.
But. BUT. Plenty of world leaders can go shirtless. If this Obama character wants to be taken seriously, he’s got to flex his pecs next to some mountains and fishing rods and guns and bullet-riddled bodies of vanquished journalists.
Or, maybe, strip Bernie Madoff naked, pile him into a human pyramid, let the dogs loose, smoke one of those cancer sticks he loves so much, point and laugh, and say, “You’re next, Mahmoud.”
Only then will America’s (shirtless) standing in the world be restored.
