1. I'm pretty sure he can multitask...

Presidents have to do things like this. It's their job.

[TreasonousBastard]

3. Nothing in there about Easter Egg Hunts or pardoning turkeys, either. n/t

[Cooley Hurd]

7. What? No Turkey Bill of Rights?!?

Why, I'm OUTRAGED!!

[TreasonousBastard]

17. Didn't that fellah from Texas with the funny hats actually eat the bird one Thanksgiving...

or is my memory failing...

Share the outrage it wasn't an impeachable offense!

[pinboy3niner]

19. That's fowl!

I haven't kept abreast of that situation either.

[Cooley Hurd]

4. Much of what the President does is NOT outlined in the Constitution.

There's no mention of ribbon-cutting or kissing babies, either.

[cynatnite]

5. They do this all the time. Not a big deal. It's just a photo op. n/t

[cynatnite]

10. It's a normal part of WH business....

When a team wins the super bowl, they do it. They do it for Olympians, hockey teams, basketball teams, and so on.

They've been doing it for a very long time and it's not likely to go away. It's nothing more than a feel-good photo-op. Not a big deal.

We've got far more important things to get our underwear in a bunch over rather than a photo-op.

[cynatnite]

15. No, it's not...

A photo-op of these teams with the president means public relations. It's good for elections and it's good for those teams' home towns and states.

[cynatnite]

21. It's not bullshit...

Sure, corporate gets it's little feel good moment and even a little money, but it's also public relations for the politicians, those home towns and states.

Photo-ops carry a lot of weight regardless of your feelings on the matter.

8. Of all the crap going on

in the world, this is what you are worried about?

[HappyMe]

14. Good for you.

I still think this is a kind of goofy thing to get 'outraged' about. Sounds like a freeper thing to pick on the President about.

[snooper2]

9. You are doing this wrong

You are supposed to stick with NSA topics, Trade Agreements, etc.,

We'll talk about it on the weekly call on Thursday

[sufrommich]

11. The latest fake outrage being served by teabaggers.nt

[2ndAmForComputers]

18. Your assessment of the origin of the serving crew is correct.

[JustAnotherGen]

28. +1

And he's their President too.

[Pretzel_Warrior]

20. You sound like a Republican. Sad.

Pathetic.

[geek tragedy]

22. Obvious newbie ratfucking troll is obvious.

I'm sure somebody's pocketbook lined the way for this Presidential visit.

Yeah, because I'm sure an avid sports fan like Obama had to be bribed to meet the only undefeated team in NFL history.

Only a crazy person would make that accusationn.

This is a trivial complaint made by rightwingers and trolls, no one else.

Feel free to alert.

[msongs]

26. it's common for posters to be smeared when they have an independent view on things nt

[Pretzel_Warrior]

31. It's common for people who just joined last month

To be subjected to greater scrutiny when their aim is to attack the Democratic president for trivial matters.

[burnodo]

25. What is "ratfucking"?

What is the derivation of that term?

[Pretzel_Warrior]

32. Here you go

The answer you seek

[TeamPooka]

27. nothing like a newbie trying to stir bullshit up against the Pres.

[Harmony Blue]

29. I agree

I am a big NFL fan but I think this is an utter waste of time. I can see the President inviting the Ravens as they were the recent champs. But the 72 Dolphins? No way....

[ZombieHorde]

30. I hate football.

I am not very concerned about this, but I recommend all anti-football threads.

[CBGLuthier]

34. Oh I think he is mainly doing it to give a certain element something stupid to complain about

so a certain element will sound stupid, if you get my drift.
