The Homa Files

During Sarah’s GOP acceptance speech she introduced her husband Todd as the “First Dude”.

Now, John Stewart is trying to transfer that title to Barack Obama.

Let the battle begin …

In the Daily Show, Obama had a friendly host and an even friendlier crowd.

He was making this first-ever appearance by a president on the Daily Show as part of a long-shot effort to rekindle the spirit of ’08.

“You don’t want to use that phrase, dude,” Stewart recommended (to President Obama).

Dude.

The indignity of a comedy show host calling the commander in chief “dude” pretty well captured the moment for Obama.

So, on Monday, the Dem candidate for governor tells Obama to “stuff it” …  and, on Wednesday, John Stewart calls him “dude”.

I love this stuff.
