Obama: No shirtless pictures By Ian Swanson - 12/28/10 04:34 PM ET

The White House is taking extra steps to prevent photos of a shirtless President Obama on vacation in Hawaii.

The president and his family are on a snorkeling trip in Haunama Bay State Park, and traveling press are under “explicit instructions that there will be no long lenses or other sneaky attempts to take pictures,” according to a pool report.

Photos of a shirtless president on a Hawaii vacation after his win in the 2008 presidential election caused a stir two Christmases ago. Washingtonian magazine even ran a photo of the president for a cover story on why it’s good to live in D.C. “Our new neighbor is hot,” the magazine declared.

But pictures aren’t likely to come out of Tuesday’s trip to the beach. “All you folks who wanted shirtless pictures of the president: Forget it,” writes The New York Times’s Sheryl Stolberg in her pool report.

Obama is with first lady Michelle Obama and daughters Malia and Sasha along with unidentified friends and their children. The pool report states that the Obama party will be at the park for two hours.

The park is closed on Tuesdays to allow fish and coral reef time to recuperate, the pool report states, but apparently has been opened for the president’s small party.

The penis-pump judge sent him that, hoping for a presidential pardon.

traveling press are under “explicit instructions

This burns my behind. He is a public servant, not a ruler. Can we impeach him already for giving "explicit instructions" to the Fourth Estate?

Yep, and they have the power to do this too.

Yes, I remember that.

How appropriate that Obamah doesn't mind swimming in a cess pool.

...sorta like a turd in a toilet bowl.

He’s the same color (torso area) as the (Caucasian) guy in sunglasses watching him (top picture).

I don’t think he’s had his chest waxed, though: he doesn’t have the hairy arms and legs that would naturally go with a hairy chest.

Interesting tan lines. From HillBuzz (regarding the BC):

Obama’s whole schtick is that he is black, not a Caucasian-Arab. His mother was full Caucasian, and his father was only 1/4 black. Most likely, his father was listed as “African Arab” on the race line below his name on that 1961 birth certificate. When the child’s line was completed, it would have been recorded as an amalgam of mother and father, according to how they recorded mixed race births in 1961. A full-blood Caucasian mother plus a father who is 3/4 Arab and 1/4 black would result in a child that is 50% Caucasian/near 50% Arab, but with a little black in him. That’s not what Obama’s narrative needed to be to get him where he wanted to go (hence, the necessity of him marrying someone like Michelle Antoinette, who gave him street cred in the black community).

As if he is some kind of sex symbol. He looks like he could go up with the shade. Skinny.

There was an incident with Michelle when she went to visit some place in the US and people were told to turn away,close their doors etc.

And then there are the stories of her confiscating cell phones while eating at a restaurant.

Ayup, a cross. That would be normative for a Russian leader. (Russian Orthodox)

His face is clearly darker in that photo of him carrying the snorkel.
