1. Obama thinks he's above the law!
Edited on Wed Jul-29-09 09:03 PM by Clio the Leo
You gotta PAY for stuff at the grocery store before you eat it! ... Unless it's ya know, a drink out of the vending machine! lol

for shame!!!


darn it! He's too flippin' cute! Here! Have another peach on me!



After his town hall at the Kroger supermarket in Bristol, Va., President Obama shook hands with store employees and posed ...

for a few photos, then went over to a display of peaches on sale for $1.19 per pound.

Obama snatched one up, took a bite and walked over to the supermarket chain's CEO and handed him a dollar. The executive promptly handed it over to the store manager (pictured above) who posed with it for the cameras.

3. lol that must be surreal to not carry money around......
.... I was thinking the other day perhaps the greatest fringe benefit Michelle has being FLOTUS, is that she can have someone else hold her stuff! lol

..... bet he doesn't go out like that again with no spening money though! ;) Remember when he went to Canada and bought stuff with a Loonie?

8. The reporters were twittering about it as it happened - "he didn't pay for it","did he pay for it?"
"he didn't wash it". Blah, blah, blah.

Scandal central.

17. The other day
The local resort town grocery was selling Georgia peaches, big as softballs and oh so tasty. I must say the finest piece of fruit this Yankee has ever consumed. Tip of the hat to Georgia.:toast:

21. I would point out to right-wingers that money changed hands before he took that first bite,
but they'd ignore stuff like that. Kind of the way they ignore certified copies of birth certificates and stuff...
