As many Americans are waking up to a Hope and Change hang over, Indonesia appears to have sobered up a whole lot quicker. Indonesians are considering tearing down a statue of Obama as a boy only one month after it went up in Menteng Park.
Apparently a group of 55,000 Indonesians on Facebook, signed a petition to have the statue removed because they feel the site would should be used for a real Indonesian. Now check out what they have to say about our Poser In Chief:
"Barack Obama has yet to make a significant contribution to the Indonesian nation. We could say Obama only ate and s (expletive) in Menteng. He spent his subsequent days living as an American," the web page says.
"For the dignity of a sovereign nation, Barack Obama's monument in Menteng Park must be removed immediately."
Folks, we feel your pain.
Indonesian authorities will consider the petition on Monday.

Priceless closing line, Clifton!
I would put the statue in my living room if that meant he would be president over there.

I would take the statue too, but I would put it in the bathroom, that out stretched hand is a perfect place to throw a wet towel.
