Barack Obama vs. Maureen Dowd

Since I don't subscribe to the New York Times De-Select service, I missed one of Maureen Dowd's recent pithy insults. Word has it she poked fun at the size of Barack Saddam Obama's ears. He later pigeon-holed her at a press event (seriously) and "put her on notice". He's apparently somewhat sensitive about the size of his ears. I later noticed something interesting about Obama's public appearances. Check it out:


Here's Obama in early November, prior to Dowd's comments.


Here's Obama in late November.


And here he is last week in New Hampshire.

Is it just me, or does he look like he's had some work done? And aren't these Democrats taking the concept of "triangulation" just a little bit too seriously?


Oven-fresh good readin', just like Mama used to make:
