Is the bubble-head bubble bursting?

We had the stock market bubble and the housing bubble and they've been followed by the bubble-head bubble where the public vastly over valued bubble-heads.

Stocks burst, housing burst, and now it seems the bubble-head bubble might be bursting.

Donald Trump is gone. Last week he was very, very proud of himself for doing what nobody had been able to do. (Get Obama to release a long form birth-certificate) Last Sunday Obama, by eliminating Osama, burst the Donald's bubble for good by showing the world what a silly man of silly concerns Trump had become.

The Donald's silliness was put into relief by the serious of the moment and Trump, strutting and fretting, was blown away from the national stage.
But we do owe The Donald a debt of gratitude here, because he brought attention to how silly all these bubble-head boot licks have become.

Glenn Beck now is calling the President shameful for being Presidential and visiting ground zero. In so attacking the President I submit Beck finally burst his own bubble; that never again will he be afforded the too much respect he was given by the media. That forever more, he will be seen, for what he always has been: a mendacious little douche

And I suspect all the bloviating blowhards are going to find their shrill increasingly devalued. That Obama's call during his birth certificate press conference to move beyond the silliness followed by his action last week which indeed moved beyond the silliness has indeed put an end to inflated egos and the bubble-head bubble.

Silliness, when not taken seriously, asserts itself as silliness pretty quickly. So now when Micele Bachman calls Obama the worst President ever it just seems like a silly ill-timed thing to say.
When Palin offers her illiterate and unilluminating twitters accusing the President of 'pussy footing' around she just seems silly. Limbaugh: petulant and silly. Jindall: goofy and silly. Cantor: stridently silly. Bohner: mercenaringly silly.

Yes, I think the bubble-head bubble had finally burst. In a few months a large part of the public will look back and ask, "How did we ever value these bubble-head's opinions?"
