Barack Obama Jumps the Shark
By Stuart Schwartz
Barack Obama has jumped the shark.
This past week was when the forty-fourth president of the United States tugged on his leather jacket, strapped on his water skis, roared off behind a motorboat and fearlessly jumped over a live shark
The term "jump the shark" comes from a late seventies Happy Days episode when the series, desperately trying to stop its ratings slide, had the character Fonzie, in his trademark leather jacket, water ski over a shark during a visit to Hollywood. Since then, a show or movie series that tries increasingly more desperate moves as its audience disappears is said to have "jumped the shark."
Desperation is the hallmark of such productions, and desperation has become the underlying theme of what leftist stalwarts like the Guardian of London and The Daily Show admiringly call "The Barack Obama Show." Lee Cary of American Thinker puts it bluntly: his "gift has stopped giving."

Barack Fonzorello is on TV so damned much it is starting to seem quite pathetic! There is a spanish proverb, "El Arrimado y el muerto a los tres dias apesta!*" "*A houseguest and a dead body both get old and stink after 3 days." This is one of Obama's problems. He is on TV so much, we are sick of him.
