VACATION TO HELL

Will Embarrassing Elitist Photos Emerge From Obama’s Hawaii Vacation?

Not elitistDemocratic operatives are surprisingly not scared shitless about Obama’s upcoming vacation to Hawaii, despite the party’s well known reputation as shirtless pussies who are always being gay on beaches: “In a piece of footage endlessly recycled to mock his supposed elitism and even foreignness, Mr Kerry was caught on camera windsurfing off Massachusetts. Since Mr Obama is taking his holiday at a private beach house in Hawaii, surrounded by the secret service, campaign officials worry less about his exposure to the paparazzi. Besides, they say, most Americans will be tuned into the Olympics.” The Olympics? Ha! You silly campaign officials, letting down your guard. [Financial Times]

    ronnie/nancy: not hot.

  2. rubybuckaroo says at 5:52 pm, August 7th, 2008

    Looks like any remaining fat Nancy had was blown right off her and on to Ronnie.

  3. AnnieGetYourFun says at 5:52 pm, August 7th, 2008

    Wow, Nancy really didn’t have any boobs. I always thought that was a myth.

    Also, is windsurfing a well-known elitist sport? I never really assigned any notions about class or culture to it. It’s just what people do in the Columbia River Gorge.

  4. SuperRounder says at 5:54 pm, August 7th, 2008

    I don’t think Barry’s campaign will be hurt by pictures of him with no shirt on. And Michelle in a bathing suit? Yes please.

  5. kellygrrrl says at 5:57 pm, August 7th, 2008

    is Ronnie rockin a woodie?

  6. SayItWithWookies says at 5:58 pm, August 7th, 2008

    Wow, those guys in Sturgis really did a number on Nancy.

  7. KevoTron says at 6:01 pm, August 7th, 2008

    What was that little mantra we were all reciting last week? “Please overlords remove that startling image of anorexia and the fat, Republican Christ figure guy. I know it’s a period in our history etc…” Help me out here.

  8. Not_So_Much says at 6:02 pm, August 7th, 2008

    kellygrrrl: No, that was his post-baby uterus bulge. More crudely known as a ‘gunt’…

  9. tunamelt says at 6:03 pm, August 7th, 2008

    New shirtless on the beach Obama pictures! Thanks, Muslim Jesus!

  10. AngryBlakGuy says at 6:04 pm, August 7th, 2008

    …Nancy Reagan’s breasts are sagging so low that they look like tangerines in a pair of knee high tube socks.

  11. V572625694 says at 6:06 pm, August 7th, 2008

    AnnieGetYourFun: Lives near water = elitist.

  12. ElectricZen says at 6:07 pm, August 7th, 2008

    Why is Charlie Crist in the new American Apparel ad?

  13. tunamelt says at 6:09 pm, August 7th, 2008

    KevoTron: That image is very disturbing. I wish you’d have chosen something else. I realize that it’s a shameful part of American history that we should never forget, but it’s too much.

  14. josereyes.theroof says at 6:15 pm, August 7th, 2008

    AnnieGetYourFun: Columbia River Gorge

    Meaning PDX, I presume. What is more ELITE than that pinko-hipster bastion of Naderism & heroin (plus meth besides, for the bitters in the hinterland)?

  15. Mecklen says at 6:18 pm, August 7th, 2008

    Seeing Nancy ‘like that’ recalled an anecdote told to me by the late Jimmy Kirkwood who wrote “Chorus Line”. Apparently Nancy was celebrated in Hollywood for her expertise in giving blow jobs. Jimmy said Nancy’s were the best - and coming from a gay guy, that’s quite an accolade.

  16. NotUrEvryDayWEzl says at 6:27 pm, August 7th, 2008

    I rather like the new American Apparel ad. I just wish his fun wasn’t hidden away.

  17. 4tehlulz says at 6:29 pm, August 7th, 2008

    Right wingers are hot gluing their keyboards to this picture.

  18. thefrontpage says at 6:34 pm, August 7th, 2008

    Please….must….stop….running….these….old….pictures….of..the Reagans….and Hillary Clinton…must….stop………………………….

  19. I wonder if Ronnie had his pubes dyed as well. Wait, why am I wondering that?

  20. sarcasticusername says at 6:39 pm, August 7th, 2008

    i just want a pic of barry and his racist granny, perhaps one of him helping her out from under a bus or something. seriously though, i hope we get at least one pic of michelle in a bathing suit.

  21. Mr. Herpes says at 6:43 pm, August 7th, 2008

    Always knew he had the tits, she had the cock. And he called her Mommy. And we name buildings after the dumb bastard. I’m going to the liquor cabinet now.

  22. Speed Ball says at 6:47 pm, August 7th, 2008

    And that, my friends, is not swim-suit change we can believe in!

  23. Texan Bulldoggette says at 6:48 pm, August 7th, 2008

    Why is the Gipper wearing his boxers in the water? It’s like they’re in their 1920s bathing suits.

  24. tunamelt says at 6:49 pm, August 7th, 2008

    USC just emailed me this, via some alumni e-newsletter thing.

    USC Alumni and Decision 2008
    In addition to Cindy McCain ‘76, MS ‘78, two other USC alums are involved in the 2008 presidential election: former Georgia Congressional representatives Bob Barr ‘70 and Cynthia McKinney ‘77 are running for president on the Libertarian and Green Party tickets, respectively.

    Are we really bragging about that?

  25. Scarab says at 6:51 pm, August 7th, 2008

    ElectricZen: [ slow clapping ]

  26. thefrontpage says at 6:52 pm, August 7th, 2008

    Between the old pictures of the Reaganauts, the Clintonites and the Cristgays today, everyone will be having Jack Daniels and tequila shots for dinner tonight to get the crazy images out of their brains.

  27. Isn’t it obvious? Ever since those first “beach babe” photos came out, and Barry pretended to be horribly embarrassed of his hot half-nekkid self, he’s been hitting the gym two to three times a day so that when the next set of beach candids comes out, he can look even hotter in them and act even more outraged that everyone is fixating on his hot ass instead of his policies.

  28. anabellum says at 7:16 pm, August 7th, 2008

    this girl is dreamin of Barry on vacation pics…

    for that matter, theres no doubt that michelle is gonna show us how to do that voodoo that she does so well…

    as far as the pic?…vintage republican porn has never interested me…

  29. Landstander says at 7:28 pm, August 7th, 2008

    I wanna see Michelle’s ass. This isn’t funny or witty, I just want to see that ass.

  30. NoWireHangers says at 7:29 pm, August 7th, 2008

    Let’s hope to god the paps get some new topless shots of Barry. That one photo from last summer has long grown sticky and wrinkled. Give the people what they need!

  31. wheelie says at 7:30 pm, August 7th, 2008

    AxmxZ: Really? You think he’s that vain?? Me too. I’m looking forward to seeing his new abs and pecs.

  32. Oscar Folsom Cleveland says at 7:31 pm, August 7th, 2008

    Oh no!!! The Hawai’i wind has whipped the melatonin right off Hopey and his Baby Mama….AND her breasts! Still, Barry looks kinda hot in those kewl boxers, what a QT!

  33. jagorev says at 7:35 pm, August 7th, 2008

    The sad fact is that Barry’s elitism is revealed by his very ability to even take a vacation this year. Real Murkins take staycations.

  34. The Station Manager says at 7:48 pm, August 7th, 2008

    That tears it. If Barry’s caught playing anything more Elitist than stickball, I’m moving to Canadia.

  35. shortsshortsshorts says at 8:04 pm, August 7th, 2008

    tunamelt: WIN!

  36. RuperttheBear says at 8:04 pm, August 7th, 2008

    AnnieGetYourFun: Don’t know the dates, but she had the breast cancers. Breast cancer is never funny.

    Unless, you know, Tony Snow gets it.

  37. The Station Manager: You mean Canuckistan?

  38. anabellum says at 8:11 pm, August 7th, 2008

    tunamelt: what can i say?…i do feel bad for you…

  39. valobama says at 8:12 pm, August 7th, 2008

    tunamelt: pussy

  40. AnnieGetYourFun says at 8:40 pm, August 7th, 2008

    RuperttheBear: Hadn’t heard that.

    josereyes.theroof: The Dalles, I guess. So, yeah. I don’t know, I never think of people who windsurf, or surf, as elitists. Sun-baked potheads, maybe.

  41. RuperttheBear says at 8:50 pm, August 7th, 2008

    AnnieGetYourFun: Quick search says 1987. Of course, there’s a center named after her now.

  42. wheelie: Barry re-defines vain. I’d say there’s a picture of him next to the word in the dictionary, but there isn’t - he decided the dictionary wasn’t high profile enough, and he won’t settle for anything less than the Encyclopedia Britannica.

  43. gambypants says at 9:09 pm, August 7th, 2008

    i hear he’s officiating a gay wedding

  44. shortsshortsshorts says at 9:44 pm, August 7th, 2008

    AnnieGetYourFun: Like roller blading, the hardest part about wind surfing is telling your parents that your gay.

  45. Mahousu says at 10:05 pm, August 7th, 2008

    Somehow, Ronnie looks disturbingly like Moe Howard to me in that photo.

  46. valobama says at 10:18 pm, August 7th, 2008

    AxmxZ: You do realize that is a done deal, right?

  47. Jukesgrrl says at 11:37 pm, August 7th, 2008

    Please, God, no pix of O with an umbrella drink in his hand. Otherwise, Pennsylvania’s a goner.

  48. Jukesgrrl: If anyone can pull off an umbrella drink, it’s Barry. Also, Speedos. Pull ‘em off!

  49. Darehead says at 6:23 am, August 8th, 2008

    tunamelt: Where’s our resident “tsunami”? Maybe s/he could help.

  50. regisgoat says at 7:55 am, August 8th, 2008

    Mahousu: I don’t really see the resemblance. There’s always a few people in any presidential cabinet who look like the Holy Trinity, though in Ronzo’s case the mannerisms were more like Shemp. Nice way to start off the day, with a photo of this evil old man basking on the beach next to his evil old fellatrix of a wife. I’m so happy I was up in Mendocino the week he cacked, so I was away from all the tv sets blaring away about how the old perjurer ended the cold war and was a grandfather to us all.

  51. Mahousu: Nyuk nyuk!

  52. I like to think it’s cause Barrys is incapable of looking horrendously ridiculous without also looking adorable, however I have been proven wrong in the past.

  53. Joey Ratz says at 2:33 pm, August 8th, 2008

    sleepy: Well, wrinkly and uncool as they are, they still look hotter than Sid and Nancy.
