The President compared to Alexander the Great - Pres and VP crack up

[Jackeens]

Sorry, it's a Politico link - but it's worth it:

Greek Orthodox Archbishop Demetrios likens the president to Alexander the Great in remarks at the White House Wednesday evening.
Obama: "I will tell Michelle I have been compared to Alexander the Great. I will see if that gets me a little more respect..."

4. And you know Joe was quietly wondering what major historical figure....

[Jackeens]

6. We gotta go Irish for Joe...Cúchulainn!

Cúchulainn is an Irish mythological hero who appears in the stories of the Ulster Cycle, as well as in Scottish and Manx folklore. The son of the god Lugh and Deichtine, sister of the king of Ulster, he was originally named Sétanta, but gained his better-known name as a child after he killed Culann's fierce guard-dog in self-defence, and offered to take its place until a replacement could be reared. At the age of seventeen he defended Ulster single-handedly against the armies of queen Medb of Connacht in the epic Táin Bó Cúailnge.
