President Barack Obama may not announce an official proclamation for International Talk Like a Pirate Day, but he was sure not to let the important day go unnoticed. The campaign celebrated by posting this picture on Twitter with the caption, "Arrr you in?"

[Mean Daddy]

Seriously, no one posted this? For the liberals on this site, ask yourself this, if this was President Bush and the Mid East was about go up in flames and Bush went on Letterman and met with a pirate but not with Bibi, what would your reaction be?

Yo, ho, ho and a bottle of rum,
The people who would vote for me sure are dumb

[Biggirl]

Folks would be upset if it was in the case of Bush.

Captain Hook meets Tinkerbell. Where’s Peter Pan?

[ConservativeStatement]

Captain Crook.

[Mean Daddy]

Unbelievable, that’s all I can say, unbelievable.

He also is meeting Morsi next week in New York..

Did Obama talk like a Somali pirate today?

[RicocheT]

[Obama] meeting Morsi next week in New York..

That must be to announce “walk like an Egyptian” Day.

Maybe he could do this and have a meeting with Netanyahu at the same time. We all know he wouldn’t be able to sit through a whole meeting otherwise.

[GOPJ]

Liberals aren’t honest enough to answer your question.

[NoobRep]

He celebrates butt pirate day, everyday.

[Fiji Hill]

Well, blow me down! By Störtebecker's beard, all those scurvy 'RATS ought to be keelhauled!

[gaijin]

He thought it was, Talk Like a BUTT-PIRATE DAY — see...?

[MWestMom]

Obama treats our laws like Barbossa treats the pirate's code in Pirates of the Caribbean:

Barbossa: “First, your return to shore was not part of our negotiations nor our agreement so I must do nothing. And secondly, you must be a pirate for the pirate's code to apply and you're not. And thirdly, the code is more what you'd call “guidelines” than actual rules. Welcome aboard the Black Pearl, Miss Turner.”

I thought pirates said stuff like, “Give us 4 million dollars or we will cut off the infidel hostages’ heads!”

[Kickass Conservative]

Imagine the shock on Obama’s face when the Pirate walked in. Obama thought it was “Talk like a Jihadist Day”.

This has to be a joke/satire....

[Bellflower]

“Confidentially, one plunderer to another, where are the best places to hide my stash?”

[beelzepug]

“This has to be a joke/satire....”

Been thinking this for nearly four years.

[islander-11]

“Arrrrgh, Cap’n Swallow, that’s a fine tale, but lets me tell you about the lads in the bathhouses of Chicago - much fine booty to be plundered!”

It’s on Obama’s Twitter account.
