Memo to Obama: You Are Not Nearly as Hot as Megan Fox

The men's websites of America are doing the heretofore unthinkable on August 4th- going a day without Megan Fox. It's for her own good, they say, as they fear the starlet has become overexposed:

A dozen male-focused Web sites including AOL's men's lifestyle/humor site Asylum.com - as well as Ask Men, Just a Guy Thing and Double Viking - have sanctioned Aug. 4 as a Megan Fox media blackout day.

Why the diss? All the editors feel the starlet has become a bit too overexposed - and they're not just talking about her fashion sense. Fox has appeared on the covers of Esquire, Empire, Maxim, GQ UK, Entertainment Weekly and Elle this year alone, plus she did heavy press for her role as Mikaela Banes in "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen."

"You can have too much of a good thing," says AskMen.com's Editor-in-Chief James Bassil, who tells us, "We're joining in the media blackout and giving our readers a one-day reprieve from the woman we've been drowning in all summer."

Boasting a paltry six U.S. magazine covers in 2009, which I believe may be fewer than the number of Newsweek covers alone that Obama carried last year, American libidos are already tiring of the raven-haired beauty?

Today, a president who has given four prime-time press conferences (one covering health care almost exclusively) and two high-profile town-hall-style events on health care (all followed by falling poll numbers) is doing two more health care events in Raleigh, N.C. and Bristol, Va. During the Raleigh event, MSNBC cut away from Obama for an important story on the dangers of tanning beds. When the cable-net arm of the White House communications shop is spurning you for in-depth reports on the wetness of water, your star ain't shining like it used to.

It strikes me as a grave miscalculation on the part of the unpersuasive orator to think the American public is thirstier for him than it is for Megan Fox. Either that, or he looks way better in cut-offs than I would have ever guessed.

Fine, here's a picture of Megan Fox:
