...Your "Five Faces" omitted the one I consider most salient: the wimp. Having backed down on the things he should have stood up for - peace, the environment, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, separation of church and state - Obama is now a Republican lite, like John Kerry was.

"They drink a hell of a lot of beer and Jägermeister," says the star, no wimp in the party department, with a chuckle. "That was their hard-core drink of choice: flaming Jägermeister shots, which I can't hang with...
