While the Main Stream Media (MSG) was wrapped up in the pointless, breathless, click-y coverage of Barack Obama serving beer to a Harvard professor, his vice president and some dumb mick cop, the real story was Obama’s secret meeting with the Chinese, as photographed here by Pete Souza’s spy camera. Why is Barack Obama giving our nation’s legacy (a basketball) to this combover fellow from China? [White House Flickr]

He should urinate on that basketball, which would make it worth a trillion dollars on EBay. DEBT ELIMINATED.
Did Souza not get the memo that this was a “secret” meeting?
We can haz teachable moment?

I love the “Don’t make me have to school your ass” look on President Hussein X’s face.

Reminds me of this fantastic deadspin post – I don’t know if Wonkette linked to it:

Lord, he even has the stereotypical buck teeth, poor guy. You just know Joe Biden is in the outer office mugging for the secretary: “Me so solly! Prease to accept aporogies! Herro Hans Brix!”
This, of course, will be on CNN in half an hour, after which Robert Gibbs will “walk it back.”
Yao Ming you ain’t, short shit.
A still from White Men Can’t Jump 2: Same for the Yellow Ones
“No way, you’re a little short fucker! Yo, you gotta be Yao-sized for a China-man to make it in the NBA, man!”
Lincoln looks pissed at what’s become of his nation.
Blaxploitation Photographer Pete Souza strikes again with stereotype-laden images suggesting the nation’s first African-American president is obsessed with basketball.
George Takei?
As Lincoln looks on, and thinks: I would so totally rule at this.
“OK, so if I beat you guys two-on-one, we get Jack Bauer back, right?”
I hope he reminded them that the Chinese started building our railroads the year Lincoln died.
So what was he apologizing for this time?
Pssst!
“Rickshaw” Perry is gay.
Pass it on.
Chinese Loy Logers doesn’t play basketball! C’mon, Barry..
chinamans hands to small to play b-ball.
[re=375539]Monsieur Grumpe[/re]: “Basket’ is not his preference in balls.
Another day to thank God that Hopey won the election. Asian guys standing in the Oval Office might of caused WALNUTS! to have flashbacks.
Two seconds later: (*SWAT*) “Get that WEAK SHIT OUTTA HERE!”
This actually was quite a coup for the administration. They picked up Hu Jintao for Yau Ming a couple of 2nd round draft picks.
Christ, Obama, don’t give them our national secrets! The last thing we need in this geopolitical climate is a finger roll-capable China.
The guy on the left is the Chinese Nate Archibald.
“From way downtown…BANG! Booth drains the three! Booth drains the three! The Know Nothings win it at the buzzer! And the crowd. Goes. WILD!”
“I’m sorry I couldn’t find our teaching model, but this basketball will do. You want to cup the testicle with one hand and feel massage it with the other, checking for unusual lumps or bumps. Try to do this at least once a month.”
Obama is in negotiations to invite the chineese team to replace the Washington Generals as a new comic foe for the Harlem Globetrotters.
When the Chinese finally have democratic erections, Obama will go over there and get some pointers on ping pong.
The upcoming Biden gaffe: “Of course the president can get health care done. Hell, he was in here yesterday teaching Chinese guys to play basketball, so if he can do that, he can — what?”
U RACIST PRIKS!!!!!11
It’s the NIPS that don’t have “L”s.
[re=375568]Buzz Feedback[/re]: Awesome!
Well, they *do* own us, so they pretty much call the shots. If it’s hoops they want, it’s hoops they’ll get. Or hops. No, wait, that’s the other story. Either one. Whatever. Faster than you can say ‘number one with egg-roll and blowjob’. I mean, we *love* these guys.
[re=375578]SayItWithWookies[/re]: Gotta love Joe Biden. He’s like the alternative to the MSM and the White House official message.
…and one hour later, Obama wanted to play basketball again. *rimshot*
[re=375585]TGY[/re]: It’s like we’re always going to China and knocking on the door. “Hello, can we borrow a cup of economy? We seem to have run out.”
Jesus, Yao Ming has really let himself go.
[re=375581]GreatOldOnesParty[/re]: I know, I know.. That’s why Chinglish is Chinglish and Engrish is Engrish.. But you know, Asians and their L’s–who can resist? hennnnnngh? Hennnnnngh?
And you see that guy in the painting in the upper left? That’s Lincoln. When he was president, people from China pretty much exclusively worked as coolies on railroads. Funny old thing, history.
Obama is going to sucker them into a game where he lets them win the first few rounds. Just when their getting cocky he’ll say “Let’s make this interesting. How about we play the next game for the national debt?”
hey, he may be playing b-ball in the oval office but he is wearing a coat and tie! Also I think some Chinese did laundry here when the railroads were being built
I bet Barry could take them in bowling as well.
I wanted to make a comment about George Takei, but then I thought it would be racist. And then I thought, Why Not? Maybe it’ll get me some free beer!
This beats the crap out of the royal iPod gift — it’s Obama basketballs all around until there’s one in the rec room of every chief executive in the world! Check out the logo.
The Chinese invented eye glasses, but when it comes to sports, contact renses make all difference in world.
“Actually the first time I said ‘yo mama’ it was on the b-ball court. Funny story…”
Hopefully the Chinese guys will not emerge from the meeting telling the press that Obama looks to them like one cool Uighur.
Wait–it looks like the president is about to show them how to spin the ball on a fingertip. DON’T DO IT! If they find out that secret, America’s last advantage over China will be gone!
You say Chinese. I say Hawaiian.
[re=375601]Monsieur Grumpe[/re]:
All hail The Grumpe!
The members of the Washington Generals have lots of pics like this where they pose with Meadowlark Lemon.
Why is da prez playin’ hoops with Lieutenant Sulu?
[re=375581]GreatOldOnesParty[/re]: You must be muslin! Real Americans know the truth from ‘A Christmas Story’.
‘Deck the hoars wit bohrs of hoarry… Ra ra ra ra raaa…’
