But Nile, that'd be work, and he's allergic to that!!

The oval office looks gay now.

One of the conservative radio hosts (I think it was Boortz) said it best: the American public is like a snake coiling to strike. Ignore the rattle to your peril.

Tedious Boortz made fun of birthers. He is an Obama/Saudi shill.

[azishot]

Did he hang any velvet paintings of himself? Oh, and beads...have to hang beads.

[Freedom56v2]

As usual, foreign press calls it!

[Mortrey]

and they added “aromatherapy”....

It backfired, though....it smells of FEAR.

The wallpaper looks good.

The rug is reminiscent of the one during Clinton’s term.

The couches look like something bought during a clearance sale at Rooms to Go.

The coffee table is an abomination. Completely mismatched and out of place.

[TruthHound]

To be fair, Båmbî probably didn’t have a stitch of input into the décor.

People re-decorate to make THEMSELVES feel better. Nothing is going to help the Americans feel better except the NEXT makeover. :)

Brutal. ;-)

Tedious Boortz made fun of birthers.
That is true; he did.
He is an Obama/Saudi shill.
That is absolute BS! If you shoot all of your allies, you'll eventually find yourself fighting alone...

OOh My Gawd It looks FabUalaSSS!

[Frantzie]

Boortz is an anti-birther and an egotistical bore.

[Interesting Times]

Obama hates the White House and dreads staying there.

The ghosts won’t let him sleep.

Just for grins and giggles I did a google on the new digs for 0bama... in a word, the decor is bland. I just wonder what took him so long to get his own color scheme in place, using the Bush decor for nearly 2 years. I think his office colors allow him to just blend in and be hidden.

The overseas trips, the wardrobe, and now the Oval Office makeover.
Is this a prelude to Michele doing a Jackie (before she bombed in Spain)?

Jackie's TV tour of the WH cemented Jackie's elegant image among Americans.

JACKIE'S WH BEDROOM.

[celtic gal]

The rug that Clinton had was a deep blue with the seal in the center. And Clinton had the bold striped colors on the couches. Bush had a more formal and elegant office, completely unfit for the likes of 0bama...bland fits this guy.

To be fair, Båmbî probably didn’t have a stitch of input into the décor.

I second that opinion.
