“Hey, what in the world is that thingy around her neck?”
I have a similar necklace that my daughter made for me for Mothers’ Day when she was 3. She intertwined all her little toys into a necklace she made. I proudly wore it to church that day!
I think these dinners are an embarrassment to the US and an insult to all Americans who are going through bad times. I hated it during the Republican administrations and I hate it now.
The Capt. must be a good size guy as Johnson stands at least 6'5'. And, I'm surprised to see the Rock with his wife. I had heard that they were divorcing and he was even dating other people.
HE laughed through the whole thing and then they both hugged and thanked her after it was over, I wish I read lips but it certainly looked like he told her she did a great job.
You would think that a 50 year-old multi-millionaire could afford a comb and would know how to use it. Get a cut Kev, you're not 19 anymore and this wasn't the set of "Footloose".
Lame is an umderstatement. I have no words, at least not ones that I can say here. Creepy man, very, very odd, hateful, creepy man. Michelle’s face said it all. He was bombing, she knew it.
That's just his way of returning the favor.
They've been fellating him for years.
HE laughed through the whole thing and then they both hugged and thanked her after it was over, I wish I read lips but it certainly looked like he told her she did a great job.
Of course he thinks she did a great job, do you expect anything different from this guy..but just wait, if there is any backlash from what she said, expect Obama in a few days to throw Wanda under the bus, anything to save his own ass
What a cute couple...of what?
This is a great picture!
Happy Memories:

What a difference. Bush is actually good looking and funny. he can laugh at himself. The Kenyan is just a skinny, ugly creepy guy. WASSUP, oh yea nerd, you are so kewl. BARF
At least twice the audience seemed to not like her comments: the Palin comments and then the Cheney comments seemed to make the room squirm .. not Obama however, just the people in the room that REPORT on Obama!
I was just diagnosed with early stage renal failure a couple of months ago. Talk about a shock I don’t drink, smoke, never did drugs and am basically a health nut; in my case related to my Lupus the disease attacked my kidneys, so NO I didn’t find her comment funny in the least.
He can try, but we have it on tape now that he thinks 911 was funny and people dying of kidney failure is a hoot!
I wonder if they would have laughed if Todd stood up and told them what POS’s they were. I wish he would have.
OMG I am so sorry to hear about this..do you have a family history..Oh I see, so the lupus attacked the kidneys..Wow that is just terrible. So what will happen..do you need a kidney transplant, you can survive with one kidney, but you would have to find the right match..lupus is just a terrible disease, I know my aunt’s niece has it and she is very young, but she is still in pretty good health, has a few kids, it hasn’t attacked her kidneys, I wasn’t even aware it could do that til you told me. I am so sorry, I will pray for a speedy recovery. God Bless
“Isn’t the idea of this dinner that the current president poke fun at himself and his administration, and that the comedian poke “lighthearted fun” at the current administration?” Not if you’re the affiramtive action negro.
Barry Soetoro, aka BH Obama will never be the president of We The Peoiple, just the affirmative action figure for the commies among us.
I’m in the early stages; I have systemic Lupus which affects the organs, it has progressed to me also having Sorjgens Syndrome.... so now I see a renal doctor every three months to monitor me and a rheumatologist every four months or so and an eye doctor to monitor my eyes (look up Sorjgens and you’ll understand why)... they put me on an anti-maliara drug which I hate taking — sometimes the cure is worse than the disease — basically I keep on trying to live a healthy life and keep it from progressing rapidly. Of course, under Obamacare who knows what they would do with people like me...but I don’t find people making jokes like Sykes did tonight amusing at all.
