They Really Like Obama

Time magazine lets its feelings out on Barack Obama:
There's a lot of reasons you could be jealous of Barack Obama: he's a great public speaker, so handsome that after every public event long lines of mostly women rush to get a picture with him, and counts Oprah Winfrey, Bill Gates, Bill Clinton and Warren Buffett among his admirers. And he just won a spoken-word Grammy for for the audio version of his memoir, "Dreams from My Father." But here's the killer: He doesn't really gain weight. People who've met with him note he's endlessly snacking on nuts or whatever is at hand, and yet his 6'2'' frame remains as trim as ever.
The above quote will not make it to an updated version of Eric Alterman's book.No liberal media?
