Picture of the Day




















Not a man who looks gravely concerned.....

  • This is the anti-Bush. A man who can talk on the phone and toss a ball at the same time.... whereas Bush has a hard time getting a grammatical sentence to pass his lips and then smiles like a proud and surprised 3-year-old when he does. OK. That was too harsh.

    Interesting observation. Obama is left handed. He's using his supposedly subordinate arm to toss the orange. Not to sound like a fanboy or anything... And not that this has ANYTHING to do with presidential qualifications.

  • Walking and chewing gum.....

    But, don't you use the phone with your dominant hand?

    (And if he was ever serious about basketball, he did off hand drills.)

  • Hey... I'm tryin' to build an American Legend here! A mythic image of American proportions... Like "Honest Abe" or "Paul Bunyan"... Stop rainin' my man-crush with your so-call "facts" and "reason."

    LOL.

    ps. those quote marks should be interpreted as McCain-like air quotes.

  • Airquotes are another sign of his age.

  • Oh, and I want to point out that Obama isn't tossing the ball.... He's suspending it in mid-air through sheer discipline of will power.

    "Not born in a manger...." Nice try Obama. Y're not foolin' me.

    (OK. I'll stop now.)
