Here’s Barack Obama captured in a touching moment of wishing the hell he was somewhere else, maybe piloting a spaceship or eating hamburgers with oceans of dijon or just getting so high on the beach. [White House/Pete Souza]

To be fair, I really do wonder how this man can wake up every day and actually WANT to keep Americans safe. After a couple of weeks under the scrutiny that he’s endured, I would personally have nuked the whole damn continent. Starting with Fox News headquarters.
I bet 5 quatloos that he’s leaning towards Mecca.
Must. Slap. Bush.
This one is good, too. You just see him thinking: “give me a friggin’ break, man……”

(yeah, Carla Bruni and Michelle walking together in virgin white at the D-Day memorial)
fbook for blackberry picture tagging run amuck
“Next time I go to Paris, I am so not coming in to work on Monday.”
Thought balloon: “I simply can’t dumb it down any more for the American people.”
Aww, how cute. He’s imitating Clinton at his desk.
Hey Grssley. where my mf’n ice t? u got nrv I workn teh hard!
There may be a boring-ass briefing going on, but in his head he loves her Marrrry Jane.
So lots of out-of-focus crap in a photo is arty now? Cool. My Mom could be the next Pete Souza.
It looks like he’s resisting the urge to send Rahm after Hannity, which is unfortunate because we’d all like to see what Rahm could do to Hannity.
He’s about ready to say: “Your revolution is over, Mr. Gingrich. Condolences. The bums lost. My advice is to do what your parents did; get laid, sir.”
“Feels so good to get out of those pants.”
Invisible Smoke Rings.
I’ll bet if you look under the desk you’ll find Monica.
Looks like someone has a case of the Mondays?
[re=334061]wx insider[/re]: It’s a conference table…
[re=334055]wheelie[/re]: Hell, take out-of-focus and throw in cutting off the tops of everyone’s heads every damned time and my Mom’s got them all beat.
Some day, Pete should put out a softcover picture book with photos he’s taken of important people and amusing captions. He could call it “Souza-Phonies.”
[re=334051]rereridiculous[/re]: Win.
Just snorting back those nose drops. Allergy sufferers the world around can empathize with you, Mr. President.
(Hey, we allergy sufferers would like to be SCOTUS, too.)
“if I legalized weed all those damn pineapple plantations back home would be covered with huge budding pot plants as far as the eye could see.”
[re=334065]MargeSimpsonsBlackFriend[/re]:
No. He’s frustrated about the PC load letter error.
[re=334065]MargeSimpsonsBlackFriend[/re]: He wouldn’t have that problem if he had a little more flair.
“James Patrick Harris did a great job as MC, but man! Would somebody tell Liza to just call it a career?!”
“If Soto doesn’t work out, I’ll nominate Shaq next. That’ll be good. -’Hey Scalia, how does my *** taste, on that decision!’ -yeah, that’ll be good.”
[re=334076]ManchuCandidate[/re]: Why does it say paper jam, when there is no paper jam?
PC load letter? What the fuck does that mean?
[re=334080]Cape Clod[/re]: Neil, Idiot.
Naw, that’s just my boy smokin indo sippin’ on gin and juice, laaaiiid back with his mind on the economy and the economy on his mind.
Nah, this is how he invented Socialism.
On the other hand, he does look at little tense. Maybe our leader is on the verge of leaving America again, this time for eternity, on a water buffalo. But we will have his Precepts that he taught us while traveling the country and engaging doubters like Joe the Plumber.
[re=334061]wx insider[/re]: So exactly. Who’s been accidentally hooking up with the interns, anyway?
[re=334083]Squiggyfm[/re]: He’s stressin’ over his cover letter for the TPM reports…, I mean/ he DID get the memo, right?
[re=334083]Squiggyfm[/re]: It’s just we’re putting new coversheets on all the TPS reports before they go out now. So if you could go ahead and try to remember to do that from now on, that’d be great.
“I swear to Allah, if Mitch McConnell opens his trap one more goddamned time, I’m going to waterboard his ass with Christopher Hitchens’ last twelve urine specimens.”
Probably Joe Biden was acting out again.
[re=334094]Come here a minute[/re]: Hey, you got your TPM reports on my posting!
[re=334090]commiegirl[/re]: First of all, our Messiah would never mess with interns. Secondly, only Bill Clinton or a life-long alcoholic could conceive of an “accidental hook-up.”
I know that look. He’s in his happy place.
[re=334096]WadISay[/re]: OK, you nailed it. It was Biden, gone all whack, in the back of the room. No doubt.
This is the moment *before* the ‘headdesk’ moment. *SLAM*
same look as GWB back in August 2001- Caption then read “bin wadden intends to…, yeah whatever. When’s lunch?”
From his past experiences, really he’s thinking:
“Is it 4:20 yet?”
[re=334066]rereridiculous[/re]: Room for Monica and her bff then…
[re=334089]lizard scum[/re]: Then Monica and her friend suck at suck?
” When I had that vision of America as a Shining city on the hill…I should have just laid down until it went away…”
[re=334103]lizard scum[/re]: “She tripped, and my penis ended up in her mouth”.
Racist right-winger photoshopping a 40 or a blunt in his hand in 3…2….
[re=334107]TGY[/re]: Win
He looks like he’s eargasming to Beethoven or something. Hillary must be speaking.
Hopey digs da kine ‘paca lolo’ brahda.
Immediately after this picture was taken, Obama leaped up and shouted “I am the Lizard King!”
[re=334040]Doglessliberal[/re]: Heh, he looks like he’s on hold.
At least he’s wearing his jacket. Bush had two crucial rules for all meetings: jacket and tie & cellphones OFF. Those are practices which have served our nation well.
He was just checking to see if the pencil he threw stuck to the ceiling.
[re=334109]recharged95[/re]: waiting for the Nicorette to be absorbed?
He was obviously chewing at the pyramids, btw…addiction recognition.
Caption: when the stupidity in the room gives you a nosebleed.
[re=334159]RoscoePColtraine[/re]: Bush’s three critical rules for meetings:
(1)NO POOFTAHS
(2)NO FRATERNIZING WITH ABORIGINIES
(3)NO POOFTAHS
(4) THERE IS NO RULE #4
(5)NO POOFTAHS
(6)NO POOFTAHS
[re=334151]Dashboard_Buddha[/re]: “I swear, if the President of India doesn’t pick up before this muzak loops again, I am so dialing in the missile codes.”
[re=334215]Johnny Zhivago[/re]: I don’t want to catch anyone NOT drinking in their rooms after Lights Out. Lookin’ at you, Bruce.
This is so blingee material peoples! Anyone?
ZOMG why is our lazy president napping on the job?!? IMPEACH NOW!
He’s thinking “Bush sure left me a bunch of shit, but wait till someone else has to clean up the fiscal diarrhea that I’m making…”
He’s probably imagining some pretty words. Or maybe what it would be like if he was actually the president of something.
Hey, who’s that under the desk?!
“President Barack Obama, at the urging of White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emmanuel, cracks the senior staff up during the morning briefing by doing his Terri Schiavo impression. (Official White House Photo by Pete Souza)”
[re=334522]obfuscator[/re]: WIN!
[re=334539]TexasCowGirl[/re]: i debated posting that comment all day while i should have been working. i’m probably a bad person.
[re=334549]obfuscator[/re]: A bad person who’s done something terribly, terribly…funny. See you in hell!
