Hey Bam, that's not the door!

It looks like President Obama hasn't gotten acquainted to his White House surroundings. On the way back to the Oval Office Tuesday, the President approached a paned window, instead of the actual door -- located a few feet to his right.

Doors didn't open automatically for Obama’s predecessor either. While making a hasty exit from a 2005 press conference in Beijing, former President George W. Bush tugged on the handles of a door, only to find it locked.

Well, I sure was hoping I wouldn't have to. Al baby's a legend!

You were aware of the Free Republic "al baby" Special Linguistic & Grammatical Exception Rule, were you not? As we know, the man's a Free Republic Living Treasure, similar to those enshrined by Japan or France. ;-)

BTW - thanks for the Beeber jpg! Never saw that one before. It’s a keeper!

Like it or not, the Zero family are the current occupants, just like when FReepers kept vigil outside of the Vice Presidential residence during the Clinton/Gore transition and shouted "Get out of Cheney's house"! I don't imagine any of them actually believed that Dick Cheney owned the residence, but he was the lawfully-elected occupant.

Whatever the technicalities of semantics, the Obamessiah's going to be living in the White House for the next 4 years and he better figure out the difference between its doors and windows. :-)

Is he smoking those funny little cigarettes again?

“I bet one of those white construction workers put this window that looks like a door here!”

[Palladin]

ROFL!

He is such a doofus.

Compare the two pictures.

Hey BO, notice the lack of hinges on that "door"?

Look at Bush: he knows he goofed, now he's making a funny face, he has the ability to laugh at himself.

I bet this was a big shock to Chris Matthews who was slobbering over BO looking “comfortable in the oval office” and Chrissy saying something like - this is real estate of the highest order.

BLECH!

[steelyourfaith]

At least what Bush tried to open was recognizable as a door ... there is absolutely no excuse for Odumbo's blunder.

I tell you this BO is a laugh-a-minute stooge, his arrogance making hi ignorance more hilarious.

[Palladin]

Amen!
