I've seen Obama likened to Jesus and the Beatles, but...

This was a new one on me, from 007 actor Daniel Craig:

“Obama would be the better Bond [than McCain] because — if he’s true to his word — he’d be willing to quite literally look the enemy in the eye and go toe-to-toe with them.”

Can't you see it now?

Faced with destroyers of the Constitution and thieves who covet our Treasury, he seduces us with honeyed words (a good name for a "Bond Girl," BTW) into ending our partisan bickering with creepy crypto-overlords who maintain private armies on volcanic islands. (His Hawaiian background and experience with Axelrod might provide him with special training in these matters. Give him a license to equivocate, and watch out!)

From "Dr. Yes We Can" to "The Quantum of Hope," it will be a series we can believe in, but probably shouldn't.

Yeah?

But what does Sean Connery say about him? He was a way cooler Bond.

Wake me when it's over.

True to his word

I'm still waiting for that light from heaven to shine through the window and give me an epiphany.

Only tyrants rig elections.

Heh, McCain as M

Isn't that him saying that McCain would make a better executive administrator.

And let's not forget that this quote came as a response to some boneheaded question from an entertainment reporter.

Amberglow....

you owe me a new monitor. "Octo-wussy!" Hah!

Coffee => screen (via nose).

I'm willing to cut Daniel Craig some slack here, as it sounds like he was asked a really lame question.

Also, having seen last year's Casino Royale (Craig's debut), I can honestly say he is the best Bond ever. Hottest too.

thanks!

(i couldn't think of a good Goldfinger pun and wanted to--i'm glad you liked that one)

A-Women!!

I like how they moved away from all the techno gadgets. A little more gritty and physical, awesome.
