Take Your Soup, America.

I know that you will all be scratching your collective heads oh what I'm gonna say, but upon reading THIS article, a thought came to mind.  Obama's picture reminds me of Mafalda's little brother. Our President just has that same lusting smile for Soup. He even uses the same napkin as a boyish bib.

And who's Mafalda?  Mafalda is a comic strip drawn by an Argentine during the repressive days of the late 60's and 70's. He used children in his comic strip to convey "innocent" humor at one level, but darker socio-political observations at another. For Mafalda, Soup was an allegory of the necessity of Military Government in its time. Tasted horrible, it was monotonous, but was necessary for the long term nutrition of Argentina.

I just wonder what Obie thinks of his soup?

You know that soup actually looks nice.  Obama really needs to do something about looking smug so often and what are those two bumps on his arm?
