4. Ain't that the truth!
I think I'd be having nightmares about being chased by a mob of giant cameras!

14. I know, I'm being nitpicky, I just hope that waffle on his plate did not
come out of the styrofoam carton next to him on the counter.

Too wasteful. :)

6. Great pics, thanks for posting...
but pic 5 is why I could never enter public life. Can't even sit down for a good waffle and sausage with out cameras in your face.

13. I now think it's a partial miracle he won if he hired a Asst. Comm. Dir.

with your horrendous syntax and sentence structure. :scared:

Sorry, don't normally do the Grammar Nazi thing, but you called yourself out.

9. One more thing...
he always takes a good pic, and never looks like a doofus. Even when clowning around he looks cool. After 8 years of shrub, that is a welcome change.

12. OK a few comments and questions on these great pics
Pic #5 at the counter: this is what differentiates those with ideas and passion who run for office and those with the same attributes who don't. I would choke on that waffle with all of those people up in my grill.

Pics #10 and 11: It's looks more like he is being cute than pissed that this photog who is taking his pic. From the hairdo, it looks like the woman who was following him since day one, no? Adorable.

Pic #13: Hysterical and more than ample proof that sometimes-meme from the MSM that Obama doesn't have a sense of humor is ludicrous.

Pic#20: Someone explain and quick. I did not realize that inanimate objects like PIE could take photographs....I'm going to have to be much more careful what I do in the kitchen on holidays!!! :9

17. This photo shows some of the security installed in his Chicago neighborhood.
Edited on Wed Dec-03-08 06:29 PM by TahitiNut


They've closed off his street to both vehicular and pedestrian traffic and have police in riot gear (flak jackets and long guns) stationed there. The last time I vividly recall seeing such road blocks personally was during the Detroit riots of 1967 ... and the roads were blocked exiting the city into the suburbs in that fashion. The sign proclaiming "Thru Traffic Prohibited" indicates the long-term dedication to security there.

18. Having scores of cameras pointed at me every day would thoroughly unnerve me,
but Obama seems to just take it in stride, like everything else.
