I found this article via Gawker’s article, entitled “Barack Obama: Bigger than Jesus“.  It starts out by mentioning that

Former Clinton White House mouthpiece Dee Dee Myers just called Barack Obama “the most famous living person in the history of the world.”

And I admire Obama as much as any open-minded-optimistic-progressive-conservative these days…But as the person who wrote the Gawker piece said, what about Jesus…Or, even Gandhi?

I’m all for Obama love. But let’s be realistic. He’s only been in office for a little over a week. I can tell things are going to be different.

But “most famous living person”?

Maybe in a year. Or two. Or ten.
