1. The white parts of this man's background are so downplayed by the Right
|
Way downplayed. Yet half his family traces their roots to Ireland. And these were the values he grew up with.
If he was 100% white Irish, I believe he'd have more supporters from the right. Way more. Says a lot about them. |

My jaw drops
BTW I have read scriptures and I think that Jesus never abrogated the Jewish dietary laws. So my question is "does Jesus mean more to you than a slice of pepperoni pizza or a cheese burger?" Tell me I am mistaken. |

4. The people really love him.
|
And he takes his time to teach a little boy something too.
It is St. Paddys and I am not even drunk yet but these pix make me choke up ..... in the last pix the only person in the whole world that President Obama is interested in @ that moment was little Cooper Coleman. You can not fake the look on Obama's face or the interest that little boy had in what the President was showing him. |

to laugh at the SS. They are soooooo easy to pick out of the crowd. I notice "Bob" hasn't been with the President in quite a while now, maybe on a rotation or something.

Last edited Sat Mar 17, 2012, 07:05 PM USA/ET - Edit history (1) He fits right in!
But I'm wondering when these pic were taken, 11 AM this morning? Or 11 AM Pacific time, after 2 in DC, or wherever he is today. |
