I’ll start felling sorry for jughead when the press invades his privacy enough to pull his original birth certificate from his bubble

next thing you know, it will be simply impossible to hire a male hooker to smoke crack with

[Malesherbes]

My gosh, Politico has uncovered a scoop: BO has never had experience as a governor or a high official. Maybe other unknown facts will soon be revealed.

By the way, that dude, he look real cool with he cap on backwards. Maybe he brains is turned round, you know I mean?

[Drew68]

It’s not a skull cap, it’s a baseball cap turned around thug style.

I think you might be right. He's still gonna come to wish that photos hadn't been taken.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Those who are sympathizing with Obama on the press need to get your heads examined. This is part of the job, he is not the friggin' King! The press should hound him mercilessly or else they're going to lose whatever credibility they have remaining.

PS - that is indeed a skull cap, not a baseball cap.

I recall that after the Presidency, Harry Truman retired to his home and took regular walks around the block by himself.

A few years back, my nieces happened to run into President GHW Bush at a store in Houston. No press was around, but he did pause long enough to take a few pictures with them.

[Eastbound]

It's not hard to tell who is willing to 'forgive and forget' that the usurper is a usurper. Hey! Wake up! This man is literally stealing the presidency.

" . . . but it doesn’t mean he has to sacrifice all privacy with his family to satisfy the insatiable appetites of the media hounds."

This guy's every move should be examined under a microscope. He should be hounded until he shows his qualifications for the presidency. And if he is sworn in before that time, this country is going to deserve what it gets. In no time at all Obammy will have no problem with the press scrutinizing him. He'll go into hiding soon enough, unwilling to face the media's questions on the new policies he has planned for the country.

My apologizes ahead of time if I'm wrong. I just see too many FReepers already capitulating, acting as though the dude is a righteous candidate.

[Thumper1960]

Thug style, he has his ball cap on.....backwards.

Might be a sign of backwardness to come.

[Thumper1960]

No doubts that press team is polluted with honkies, whitey and those who can’t get down with the new brotherhood, y’all.

[MissDairyGoodnessVT]

following his self-imposed sequestration our nation will experience martial law under the dictate of this TOTAL FRAUD

[ladyvet]

Exactly. Nobody forced him to run for office. It goes with the territory. He didn’t seem to mind the camera’s when he’s standing in front of Fake Greek Columns spewing forth a bunch of propaganda B.S.
Deal with it Berry, you chose to put you and your family in this position.

[Arrowhead1952]

I saw this on another thread at reply #44 a few minutes ago.

[Thumper1960]

Gettin' jiggy wif it.

What was that underling's name with whom he was "involved".....?

[sionnsar]

If you can't take the heat...

[bray]

Imagine that bubble if he were W? Course the Obamedia will back off rather than axe What he knows about Blago?

Pray for W America and Our Troops

[AmericanVictory]

It is, of course, a lot easier to withstand media scrutiny if you have not built so much on getting away with not revealing very much because it might bring your validity into question.

[Kakaze]

He’s still a person even if we disagree with his politics. Personally, I despise the media circus. I know it comes with the job, but it doesn’t mean he has to sacrifice all privacy with his family to satisfy the insatiable appetites of the media hounds.

When they kneel and worship his every word, he can't get enough camera time....To be real honest I see him as the enemy, purely and simply as the enemy, I could care less about his privacy, I'm damn sure he wont care about mine or yours.

[supermop]

If he wants privacy, he should just reveal his foreign born birth certificate and he is out as President. Then he can eat in peace

[TonyStark]

His type abhor the light.
