“Ha ha ha ha, you’re telling me Lindsey Graham’s a pussy! Jesus, lady, he defines the term. Anyway, I gotta go talk to somebody about North Korea or something, you just take it easy and don’t let any of these old white motherfuckers get you down, right? Oh, and if there was ever a day to wake & bake, it’s tomorrow. Peace out, Sonia.” [White House Flickr]

Is it me, or is that a pretty cheap-looking phone for the POTUS? To say nothing of his watch…

SayItWithWookies July 13, 2009 at 4:30 pm

Holy crap he’s wearing a short-sleeved polo shirt and no tie. Andy Card is going to have fits.

[re=361237]SayItWithWookies[/re]: And just imagine poor George Will’s weeping if the jeans he’s probably wearing were on-camera.

How come the phone still has a cord? I haven’t used one of those in ages. Does it have a dial too?

“Hey Sonia, let me tell you this hilarious joke I heard the other day. Lindsay Graham, Larry Craig, and Steve King walk into an airport men’s restroom…”

“Did you remember tell Sessions to buy his own damn fries?”

The Republican Party is dying. Dying has stages, at least according to Kubler/Ross. They go like this – shock, anger, bargaining, depression and finally acceptance. Since Obama was sworn in, the shock the Republicans were feeling was replaced by anger, which is the mode most of them are in.

Lindsay Graham today showed he’s moved on to the next stage, the “bargaining,” stage. He seemed sort of reasonable and almost sleazing up to the Democrat being grilled in an effort to seem bi-partisan. You’ll be seeing a lot of that soon, especially after health care passes with a public option.

But the Republicans should be sent away to face the second to last stage – depression. Because I want them to suffer.

Peace… God bless…

He’s still a black muslim socialist marxist anti-American foreign-born terrorist, but he’s just so damn cute!!!

“President Obama appears calm and demonic in his muslin-navy shirt specifically designed to demean the integrity of the Oval Office. Ralph Lauren(terrorist, GAY?!?), $515.00.”

The Dallas Office July 13, 2009 at 4:53 pm

If we’re lucky, the sight a black man in a polo shirt (possibly wearing jeans!1!) will be enough to make George Will’s head explode. God, I can hope, can’t I?

“Alright Sonia, we both know you’re gonna get approved, so let’s try to spice up this snooze-fest a bit. Every time a Republican asks you a question, preface your answer by saying ‘For English, please press 1. Para el español, por favor pulse 2.’ It’ll be muy fucking hilarious!”

iwillsavethispatient July 13, 2009 at 4:59 pm

You think he’d wear a suit when phoning up the families of our brave servicemen and women who have died in duty.

Your take made me snort with laughter. Muchas gracias for a respite on a tiring day. It would be soooooooo excellent.

Min July 13, 2009 at 5:05 pm

Ladies and gentlemen, it’s true. We have an absolutely adorable president.

Snarkalicious July 13, 2009 at 5:06 pm

Get him saying that on tape, and I’ll push for a 3rd term.

paintitblack July 13, 2009 at 5:15 pm

[re=361253]Dolmance[/re]: Too right, but I wish Kubler-Ross had discovered 6 stages of dying, and right before acceptance would be the 5th stage of: insanely suffering quadruple the pain that you inflicted on everyone else before you got to acceptance, you twat-waffles!

[re=361265]rereridiculous[/re]:

I know, right? I saw that picture and just started giggling. Giggle!

But I’d think they’d want to stay away from the cordless phones. Don’t want anyone picking up anything on the airwaves. Or something. Also?

“President Obama? I have ACORN holding on Line 1, Hugo Chavez says he has a new book for you to read, and your professor friend from Chicago says, “It might snow in Chicago, but there will be hail near the Naval Observatory.”
“Dammit, Noreen. It’s time for me to pray to Mecca. Ring me back in five.”

Zadig July 13, 2009 at 5:44 pm

[re=361253]Dolmance[/re]: No, after the public option passes they will move immediately into depression, because the only thing that could make anybody like Republicans again is if Democrats fail to pass it and Repubs pass it right after their mythical 2010 Senate sweep.

Today, we are all old white motherfuckers.

Is it just me, or does Obama look like a giddy teenage boy who just asked the pretty girl to prom and got a ‘Yes’?

“And you promise to waterboard him every day in prison? Man, Eric, you just made my day!”

MzNicky July 13, 2009 at 7:41 pm

Damn. May I just observe that I STILL can’t believe this dude is our president. Perhaps there is a god after all? Eh, nah.

Paco July 13, 2009 at 9:14 pm

This is the dumbest comment in the history of blog comments, but looking at that picture, I still can’t believe this man is our President. (As in wonderful, stunned, happy disbelief.)

Okay, back to snarking and buttseks.

BlueStateLibtard July 13, 2009 at 9:30 pm

That phone looks like it’s from 1962, the watch is cheap-looking, the polo shirt not so hot. But a sight for sore eyes nevertheless!

AnnieGetYourFun July 13, 2009 at 9:57 pm

People, that’s obviously one of those Nike watches that measures your penis length as you jog. Duh.

byakuyabo July 13, 2009 at 10:35 pm

Anyone else notice the T&C on… um… viewing that image?

“This official White House photograph [...] may not be manipulated in any way…”

I’ll just say that if someone with the requisite skills to show this image some Blingee love, I wouldn’t mind.

Okay, not really. 11.

The repugs have been cycling in a closed loop from denial to anger and back to denial since last november.

Also, regarding the phone. It’s wired and it’s an antique. The feds have security issues.

“Also, regarding the phone. It’s wired and it’s an antique. The feds have security issues.”

Well, if it were a cordless phone, the Cylons could infiltrate the White House! Or those evil Transformer thingies from that crappy movie.

and if there was ever a day to wake & bake, it’s tomorrow
