Very Presidential

He may be an "empty suit" but he's ours.



It's rather hard to believe but this appears to be a real picture of our Commander in Chief.

The PJ Tatler » Obama waving-hand gaffe picture NOT a hoax or a Photoshop after all!

It's like the entire concept of a picture is new to you guys. You're calling the president of the United States names because his hand wasn't perfectly positioned for ONE TWO HUNDRED FIFTIETH of a SECOND.

Funny thing, if you look at various other pics from the exact same event it becomes pretty obvious that the pic at the top of the thread was NOT the official group photo from the event. It appears that people were milling around, getting in their places when the "hand-waving pic" was taken. Maybe someone asked the president to raise his hand, maybe he waved to someone (one of his daughters, perhaps) because he knew that the photographer(s) weren't quite ready for the official pic, who knows. If one waits around with a camera long enough at such an event it's easy to snap a pic that looks funny. BDF.

It's not like he barfed on a head of state (like Bush Sr. once did), or tried giving a head of state an unsolicited massage (like Bush Jr. once did), or joked that he was about to start a nuclear war (like Reagan once did).

Oh I see. Another extreme leftist (more friendly). Your wrong he is an ass. I believe in the Constitution and the States Bill of Rights. That ass along with a string of other asses have decided to depart from these documents. I do not concur. Not in the least. You will not blend in or ultimately prevail.

Aaron,
C'mon man your better than that. It has nothing to do with where his hand is positioned in this photo or any other photo. It is his overall performance and attitude towards America. I just do not understand how any sensible man on the street with a lick of common sense could back this mans actions. This threatening of Social Security recipients and continued drainage of taxpayer funds towards people are in this country that violated OUR laws to get here, and buying into foreign governments that are clearly our enemies while our citizens are caught in a downward spiral of the greatest depression. The list of atrocities goes on and on and has been being faithfully carried out by our so called representative Congress. I call BS. It is time for some change alright. Fire ALL incumbents and follow the laws of the land. These governmental positions were never intended to be career paths. The effort to make things correct start with the overall picture. Past and present counts.
