1. You mean, he tripped or something?
Why am I not surprised that the MSM likes making stuff like that major news...

The article actually has that photo. I have seen it once on national news and once on a local channel. And, no it wasn't FAUX either.

10. That window looks like a door to me...
Until you notice the hinges on the door to the right. Shoot... he just moved into that house... and it's a big one. It would take anyone some time to get their GPS calibrated:)

17. I can't tell what he's doing.....so I don't get this news.
I don't even know if he's coming or going or what.
He could have been looking at his reflection to straighten his tie,, for all I know.....
and for all I care.

4. Schadenfreude (sp)
The same reason they showed Gerald Ford stumbling and bumbling. The same reason they showed * falling off the Segway, and not being able to find his way out of the room after taking questions from the press.

We love to see important, famous, and powerful people fuck up. PRESIDENT Obama isn't any different from any other important, famous, or powerful person in that respect.

6. Pretty much whatever the President does is fair game
Seemingly every stupid thing that * did ended up being ridiculed. Why not this? :shrug:

7. Obama deserves to be treated better. With more respect.
MSM needs to get that into their heads.
