Barack Obama proves to be mortal husband

Husbands of the world rejoice!

President Barack Obama, who has seemed to set an impossibly high bar for many men when it comes to dealing with their wives, has finally stumbled — and in a very public way.

“I don’t know if anybody else will meet their future wife or husband in class like I did, but I’m sure that you’re all going to have wonderful careers,” he said as he warmed up the audience before delivering a commencement speech at an economics school in Moscow Tuesday.

Obama seemed to be playing off an introduction that referred to him meeting his future wife, Michelle Robinson, while he was a student. But the truth is that the couple met not “in class” but at a law firm in Chicago, Sidley Austin, in 1989. Obama was a summer associate (essentially a legal intern) there and Robinson was an attorney completing her first year at the firm. Both attended Harvard Law School, but Michelle graduated in the spring of 1988, while Barack Obama did not arrive at the Cambridge, Mass., campus until that fall.

Is there anything with this guy that adds up and doesn't defy conventional wisdom?

[NMEwithin]

He just lies so much he can’t keep up...

[VicVega]

Lets see, his parents met in Selma during the Civil Rights march. But that of course happened after the lil muslim was born.

Now he and his wife met at school but Michelle was already off campus.

Small lies, but a pattern for lying. He he has some big ones.

Makes it up as he goes along.

Unfortunately for the big guy, Michelle Obama is along for the trip and was on hand for the speech, so the president is almost certain to get an earful.

May I suggest flowers, Mr. President?

May I usggest a muzzle and a paper bag, Mr. President?

[DieHard the Hunter]

He is as good at lying as Hillary. Maybe even better.

President Barack Obama, who has seemed to set an impossibly high bar for many men when it comes to dealing with their wives,

Did President Obama's economic stimulus plan include paying MSM outlets to hire former employees of Izvestia and Pravda

Instaed of flowers I hear she would be prefer a bottle of booze

[dead]

Their first meeting is SEARED, SEARED into his memory like his secret Christmas mission to Cambodia or the Arkansas church burnings he remembers from of his childhood or the pain he felt as an Italian American watching the Kefauver hearings on television before he was born.

But what if it's true? It's hard to tell with these people.

A “model husband” doesn’t resist the idea of getting married, telling his then-girlfriend that he thinks it is an outdated institution.

[Kenny Bunk]

Cheeses! Cut our POTUS some slack. He met Larry Sinclair in class, and Michelle (aka Guns*) at the Ayers' dad's law firm.

He got a little confused and a little high for both meetings.

easy now, that's body-builder lingo for "Arms"....OK?

[Venturer]

I used to think Larry Sinclair was a liar???? Now I am not so sure.

[Straight Vermonter]

Lets see, his parents met in Selma during the Civil Rights march. But that of course happened after the lil muslim was born.

No, he said they were inspired to have him as a result of the march not that they met there.

This guy can’t get jack squat right!

What a doofus we have there in Moscow - the Russkies have got to be sh!ttin their pants laughing so hard at this wuss.

[VicVega]

"There was something stirring across the country because of what happened in Selma, Alabama, because some folks are willing to march across a bridge. So they got together and Barack Obama Junior was born. So don't tell me I don't have a claim on Selma, Alabama." 0 at Civil RIghts meeting.

He cuts it real close.

“He just lies so much he can’t keep up...”

Funny, same thing with the Clintons. They lied when they didn’t need to. It has to be some kind of mental ailment.

[blueyon]

May I suggest flowers, Mr. President?

Hey what about another date night courtesy of American taxpayers (actual dinner tab excluded)

[SWAMPSNIPER]

He has to make an effort to tell the truth, it doesn’t come naturally.

[tioga]

hey, MO...which one of his exgirlfriends did he meet in class?

[Oztrich Boy]

Well he said he met his “future wife” in class. Now we need to dig into his background and identify her. (Maybe she’s his Argentinian soulmate)
