Alan Caruba's "Obama's Make-Believe Life"; now a viral urban legend

This came today from fellow blogger, friend and sometime mentor, Alan Caruba who blogs at  Warning Signs. The article by Alan was written back in January of 2010 and his authorship has since been misrepresented as an urban legend. 
Here is Mr. Caruba's refutation of the "legend" followed by the article in question.

On January 2, 2010, I posted a commentary, "Obama's Make-Believe Life", to this blog and a strange thing happened. An unknown person misappropriated it, added the phony name of "Eddie Sessions" as its author and further claimed that it had been published in The Wall Street Journal. And stranger still, the commentary began to be shared via email among literally thousands of people. In time, in response to many inquiries Snopes.com confirmed that I was, indeed, its author.
Obama is going to be the focus of worldwide attention when he delivers his acceptance speech, even though he has been campaigning for reelection for well over a year at this point.
I rarely, if ever, repost anything I have written because I want my commentaries to be as timely as possible, but I think this one that has gone around the world several times remains timely. Feel free to share it with family, coworkers, and friends.

Here is an excerpt from the article written by Mr. Caruba:

Obama's Make-Believe Life  "The mainstream political media fell in love with him. It was a schoolgirl crush with febrile commentators like Chris Mathews swooning then and now over the man. The venom directed against McCain and, in particular, Palin, was extraordinary.

"Now, nearly a full year into his first term, all of those gilded years leading up to the White House have left him unprepared to be President. Left to his own instincts, he has a talent for saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. It swiftly became a joke that he could not deliver even the briefest of statements without the ever-present Tele-Prompters.

Caruba advises us in a Facebook post:
If you plan to listen to the President's acceptance speech tonight keep a pad of paper in hand and track how many times he blames someone or some thing for how poorly his first and hopefully last term has performed.
