Barack Obama Compares Himself to Paris Hilton

Considering Obama's response to McCain's ad comparing him to Paris Hilton, you would think that Obama views such a comparison so insulting and inappropriate that he would never use it on anyone, ever.

Well... except on himself. This nice little Washington Post article from three years ago quotes Obama, at the time the fresh rising star:

"Andy Warhol said we all get our 15 minutes of fame," says Barack Obama. "I've already had an hour and a half. I mean, I'm so overexposed, I'm making Paris Hilton look like a recluse."
Woops! This "star is blind" to his own hypocrisy, figuratively speaking.
