I guess we should have expected this

Obama is now an action figure: “The first and only action figure with the power to transform a nation.“  It seems almost cruel to remind the doll’s creators that action figures are fictional.  Of course, given that Obama’s current incarnation bears almost no relationship to his actual past, maybe an action figure isn’t such a stretch.

    Actually there are some action figures of real heroes.

    Wow.

    So if you push the button on his back, does a little parachute pop open and allow him to escape from danger? Maybe he’ll come packaged with a change of clothes - something that will make him look all-powerful!

    If the toy makers had really been thinking, they would have made him into a transformer - one way, he’d look like just a man. But turn his arms, rotate his head, and bend his legs and KAZAAAM!, he’s the savior of America!!!

    That would have been a top seller.

    Hmmm…perhaps more appropriately, Deana, they could have him rotate his arms, bend over, expose his rump and say, “take that, America”!
