KAILUA, Hawaii (AP) — President Barack Obama has taken his daughters for a Hawaiian treat of shave ice and ordered a flavor combination that is named for himself.

Obama and a posse of about 20 people took a motorcade Friday to the same shave ice stand he has visited during other trips. As in past trips, he asked for a pile of ice shavings flavored with lemon-lime, cherry and passion-guava syrups. The store calls the combo the "Snowbama."

Obama wore a white T-shirt, khaki shorts and sandals.

Who cares?

[SmokingJoe]

That’s all the Narcissist in Chief knows how to do. Buying ice cream, playing golf and posing for photo ops. The last thing this loser is interested in, is actually doing any work, or fighting terrorism.

"The store calls the combo the "Snowbama."

Should'a been the "SnowJOBbama"....more fitting.

I could say its narcissistic but if anyone went in there wouldn’t they have to try a snow cone named after themselves?

It’s all about him isn’t it.

Gee, I hope he doesn’t eat it too fast and get a *brain freeze*. (eye roll)

Snowbama cones for the kids.

With a sprinkling of “snow” they become blowbama cones for the adults

Of course, these could have been delivered to them.......but then there would have been no parade of Escalades and flashing lights and police escorts.

[muddler]

They should have named the snow cone The Uslurper.

Why does the Marxist-State-Media feel compelled to report every stupid thing this moron does?

Memo to Media: How about doing something worthwhile...like digging into his history and finding answers to the myriad of questions Americans have about his unknown past?

i.e., what you should have done A YEAR AND A HALF AGO.

UGH. LOL.

Why does the Marxist-State-Media feel compelled to report every stupid thing this moron does?

It's called a "cult of personality." Soon you will read things like, "Could the flowers bloom without him?"

(obscure Mao and Stalin reference)

Even described what he was wearing! The media has it bad. And a 20 car motorcade at the taxpayers expense for shaved ice for the little princesses? Please!
