Girl Scout Praises President Obama For Being In Touch with His Feminine Side

By: Sarah Jones

......



“What are you guys doing in my yard?” President Obama asked teasingly.

Transcript from the White House press office:

THE PRESIDENT: I don’t know. They just showed up. (Laughter.) I don’t know what you guys are doing here. (Laughter.)

.........................

This next part wasn’t in the White House Press Secretary’s transcript, but according to last night’s pooler, this happened and it’s too perfect not to share. Well, it’s perfect if you think that “feminine side” is a positive thing, and I do.

During this visit to the Girl Scout’s camp, a campfire leader called President Obama “our sister, too.” Obama corrected her that he was a “brother.” The campfire leader then suggested that the President was “very in touch with your feminine side. That’s what makes you so wonderful.”

President Obama’s response? “Clearly.”

President Obama seems so at ease with children.....I know people say it's because he has two daughters but so did Dubya and he always looked like a cardboard cutout around kids

Not only the world's most fun looking campfire, but on the White House lawn to boot.

These girls now have a fantastic memory that they will NEVER forget.
