WSJ: Monday, on the way to a speech on working families, Mr. Obama made a largely uneventful stop at Chipotle. Uneventful, that is, until White House photographer Pete Souza posted a photo late Monday of the president leaning over the sneeze guard to order his burrito bowl toppings.
Pete Souza, WH photog, tweeted this with the pic above:

twittering and guffawing ensues:

@petesouza Clearly the sneeze guard wasn't showing enough leadership. So he had to go around it.

I can't believe what Obama did at that Chipotle. Impeachable offense, IMO. Start the proceedings, @SpeakerBoehner.

(40,138 posts)1. That isn't really a sneeze glass.
It looks like its purpose is to keep people from sticking their hands directly into the food.

Burritogate!
Chipotlegate!
See I told you he's a terrorist! He's trying to poison the food supply! By sneezing into it and releasing his Kenyan Moslem germs!
