What did Bill say to Hillary after sex? Honey, I’ll be home in 20 minutes.

[jimbo123]

Has anyone checked Reggie for the missing ring?

[NativeNewYorker]

Muslims don’t wear wedding rings

...or make a big deal about birthdays...but why oh why would anyone "falsely" assume B. Hussein Obama is Muslim?

Earlier at the press conference...

Hey cigarettes are expensive (thanks to the taxes) so maybe a stop at the local Cash4Gold bucket shop before a stop at the tobacconist?

[Berlin_Freeper]

I knew when Michelle went to Spain on Obama’s birthday they would fake a sex scandal to raise his poll numbers.

Now they are starting to roll it out.

Watch.

....”90% of women wanted to contact the man when told he was in a relationship”.

I learn so much from my freeper friends! I'll try that next time a girl ask me that very question,”you have a girlfriend?” I always gave the wrong answer because I haven't found her yet!!

Read the comments on article.

LOL! Definitely some choice ones there! ;)

[VanDeKoik]

Does Islam even use wedding rings?

[GonzoGOP]

WTF needs to be fixed on a simple wedding band???

Well after 50 some years my dad's wore out and split in half. I always thought a couple should consider that a sign of a successful union when the ring wears out before you do.

Every time I see a picture like that one, I actually have to stop and ask myself: “Now, is that Carville, or Gollum...?” ;)

Larry Sinclair, please pick up the white courtesy phone...

I wasn't familiar with the name so I went to look him up on wikipedea - and he's not there. Lots of other interesting stuff though.

Intricate gold design?

Wanna bet its something in ARABIC?

He did hang curtains that one time.

“Moochelle might have to fight it out with Reggie over who will be their man.”

Reggie's a lover, not a fighter. If it came to it, the wookie would beat the crap out of him.

[Echo4C]

In Islam men actually aren’t allowed to wear gold.

Obama's wedding band is "an intricate gold design from Indonesia, where he had lived as a boy," the New York Times reported in 2009.

There are things that people do that reveal their true selves. IMO< this ring issue is interesting in that it's of Indonesian design.

You make decision about rings based on sentimentality. Indonesia was where he attended a Muslim Madrassa as a boy. Evidently those days under Islamic direction are integral to who Obama truly is. He seems to think so, so much so that it influenced one of the most significant things that a man will do, choose the origin, design, and meaning behind something he will wear the rest of his life.

The symbolism Obama chose, was that of a constant reminder of his Islamic training, and to a culture from a nation that was not his own. Or was it?

It's quite evident this guy isn't one of us, and I could give a rats ass what his color is.

I thought the story was going to say that he turned his Blackberry on vibrate. You know -- "ringless".

And miss his favorite "Muslim Call To Prayer" ringtone? Not a chance!
