      <![CDATA[And the world is going to run out of oil in the mid 1980s, or at the very latest, the mid-1990s. Oil wars will devastae the earth before the year 2000, and many in the world will actually starveto death as our unsustainable oil based system fails...<br>Sorry, heard all that before, too, and not buying it.

      <![CDATA[Kudos to Dale Brumfield for giving Style readers credit for possessing a little classical education. Those who have had the real thing (as distinct from the speechifying idiots mentioned in the article) are well-equipped to see through the utter mediocrity and lies of our current political class.<br><br>But Brumfield unaccountaby omits Alcibiades, the prototype of the self-aggrandizing mobocrat in every age.<br><br>Clinton  Bush  Obama.

      <![CDATA[Not sure what the point of this article is.<br><br>If the author is trying to set up Obama as some kind of self-involved egomaniac, I can think of other presidents who were far worse. Remember Richard "the Trick" Nixon who used to keep the air conditioner set very low in the Southern California heat so he could use the fireplace.<br><br>As far as Michelle Obama and Spain, that is a cheap shot.
