Barack Obama Has Had It With You People

So sick of this shit ....
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.

  2. Squiggyfm says at 1:44 pm, June 8th, 2009

    I bet 5 quatloos that he’s leaning towards Mecca.

    Must. Slap. Bush.

  4. Doglessliberal says at 1:46 pm, June 8th, 2009

    There may be a boring-ass briefing going on, but in his head he loves her Marrrry Jane.

  12. wheelie says at 1:55 pm, June 8th, 2009

    So lots of out-of-focus crap in a photo is arty now? Cool. My Mom could be the next Pete Souza.

  13. Mad Farmer Manifest says at 1:55 pm, June 8th, 2009

    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.

  14. Scrodd says at 1:55 pm, June 8th, 2009

    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.”

  15. Naked Bunny with a Whip says at 1:55 pm, June 8th, 2009

  18. MargeSimpsonsBlackFriend says at 1:58 pm, June 8th, 2009

    Looks like someone has a case of the Mondays?

  19. rereridiculous says at 1:58 pm, June 8th, 2009

    wx insider: It’s a conference table…

  20. Joshua Norton says at 1:59 pm, June 8th, 2009

    wheelie: 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.

  21. gjdodger says at 2:00 pm, June 8th, 2009

    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.”

  23. Lascauxcaveman says at 2:01 pm, June 8th, 2009

    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.)

  24. hobospacejunkie says at 2:01 pm, June 8th, 2009

    “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.”

  25. ManchuCandidate says at 2:02 pm, June 8th, 2009

    MargeSimpsonsBlackFriend:
    No. He’s frustrated about the PC load letter error.

  26. Come here a minute says at 2:04 pm, June 8th, 2009

    MargeSimpsonsBlackFriend: He wouldn’t have that problem if he had a little more flair.

  27. Cape Clod says at 2:07 pm, June 8th, 2009

    “James Patrick Harris did a great job as MC, but man! Would somebody tell Liza to just call it a career?!”

  28. “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.”

  29. 19kevin8 says at 2:07 pm, June 8th, 2009

    ManchuCandidate: Why does it say paper jam, when there is no paper jam?

  30. Squiggyfm says at 2:08 pm, June 8th, 2009

    PC load letter? What the fuck does that mean?

  31. Cape Clod says at 2:10 pm, June 8th, 2009

    Cape Clod: Neil, Idiot.

  32. Anonymous Office Zombie says at 2:12 pm, June 8th, 2009

    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.

  33. lizard scum says at 2:12 pm, June 8th, 2009

    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.

  34. commiegirl says at 2:12 pm, June 8th, 2009

    wx insider: So exactly. Who’s been accidentally hooking up with the interns, anyway?

  35. freakishlystrong says at 2:13 pm, June 8th, 2009

    Squiggyfm: He’s stressin’ over his cover letter for the TPM reports…, I mean/ he DID get the memo, right?

  36. Come here a minute says at 2:15 pm, June 8th, 2009

    Squiggyfm: 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.

  37. queeraselvis v 2.0 says at 2:17 pm, June 8th, 2009

    “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.”

  38. WadISay says at 2:18 pm, June 8th, 2009

    Probably Joe Biden was acting out again.

  39. freakishlystrong says at 2:19 pm, June 8th, 2009

    Come here a minute: Hey, you got your TPM reports on my posting!

  40. lizard scum says at 2:24 pm, June 8th, 2009

    commiegirl: 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.”

  41. jetjaguar says at 2:25 pm, June 8th, 2009

    I know that look. He’s in his happy place.

  42. WadISay: OK, you nailed it. It was Biden, gone all whack, in the back of the room. No doubt.

  43. This is the moment *before* the ‘headdesk’ moment. *SLAM*

  44. Georgia Burning says at 2:36 pm, June 8th, 2009

    same look as GWB back in August 2001- Caption then read “bin wadden intends to…, yeah whatever. When’s lunch?”

  45. recharged95 says at 2:37 pm, June 8th, 2009

    From his past experiences, really he’s thinking:

    “Is it 4:20 yet?”

  46. zenferret says at 2:37 pm, June 8th, 2009

    rereridiculous: Room for Monica and her bff then…

    Immediately after this picture was taken, Obama leaped up and shouted “I am the Lizard King!”

  54. Dashboard_Buddha says at 3:06 pm, June 8th, 2009

    Doglessliberal: Heh, he looks like he’s on hold.

  55. RoscoePColtraine says at 3:15 pm, June 8th, 2009

    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.

  56. lawrenceofthedesert says at 3:18 pm, June 8th, 2009

    He was just checking to see if the pencil he threw stuck to the ceiling.

  57. sati demise says at 3:19 pm, June 8th, 2009

    recharged95: 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.

  59. Johnny Zhivago says at 3:48 pm, June 8th, 2009

    RoscoePColtraine: 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

    Dashboard_Buddha: “I swear, if the President of India doesn’t pick up before this muzak loops again, I am so dialing in the missile codes.”

  61. Zadig says at 3:56 pm, June 8th, 2009

    Johnny Zhivago: I don’t want to catch anyone NOT drinking in their rooms after Lights Out. Lookin’ at you, Bruce.

    ZOMG why is our lazy president napping on the job?!? IMPEACH NOW!

  64. RushLickBall says at 4:53 pm, June 8th, 2009

    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…”

  65. DC Hates Me says at 8:42 pm, June 8th, 2009

    He’s probably imagining some pretty words. Or maybe what it would be like if he was actually the president of something.

  66. GinBomb says at 9:05 pm, June 8th, 2009

    Hey, who’s that under the desk?!

  67. obfuscator says at 9:51 pm, June 8th, 2009

    “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)”

  69. obfuscator says at 11:26 pm, June 8th, 2009

    TexasCowGirl: i debated posting that comment all day while i should have been working. i’m probably a bad person.

  70. hobospacejunkie says at 1:57 am, June 9th, 2009

    obfuscator: A bad person who’s done something terribly, terribly…funny. See you in hell!
