Bwah.
Hate to defend B. Hussein O., but it’s just a bike ride for cryin’ out loud. Media needs to leave him alone. (he should have had Secret Service beside him, but otherwise, so what?)
I don’t see how this picture really hurts, except that it makes him look like he’s riding to his job as a Starbucks barista rather than Democratic candidate for President of the United States.
OK Ill admit: Thats pretty much exactly how I look every time I go out bike riding myself. Right down to the dorky helmet.
Oh give me a break! I'm sure they this forgiving to anyone on the right, "because they are thinking about important things."
I love the Kermit comparison! LOL! But I don't really think there is anything to "escape" here like this article portrays. He just looks like a dorky dad taking his kids out for a bike ride. Wait until he really starts campaigning. Then there will be tons of stupid photo ops.
Could be some device to keep the bike in balance. He may not know how to ride a bike.
Low tires and seat too low just like his constituents that live in my hood.
He can lead a nation with a microphone

I don’t get it either. He looks normal.
Why would you need a helmet to go bike riding when he’s out for a little spin around the block with his daughter in tow (was she wearing a helmet). Just another example of the sissyfication of America.
Obama goes for a ride in the country
Who rides a bike wearing jeans? hey are way to constraining. I’m not saying he needs spandex but shorts would have been so much better.
This looks solely like a photo op.

Just think of the crap he would get if he didn’t wear the helmet. If I was running for president, I would wear one even if I normally did not.
And he can end the planet in a holocaust

Neither do I.
This is all getting really, really stupid. There's a million things to attack Obama on & a bunch of idiots are getting worked up about Larry Sinclair, a non-existent "whitey" tape, where Obama was born, etc, etc.
If Obama becomes the next president, a big reason will be because conservatives can't distinguish what's truly important & what's just background noise.
Keep your eyes on the ball, people.
And at 6'3” I look ever dorkyer on my bike.
I'd have hated to have somebody seek a camera shot into my back yard this past weekend when I was cleaning it up.
Neither I nor the the yard were a pretty sight.
