After passing on dinner with the French president to take a date in the City of Light with his wife last month, President Obama took leave of his Russian hosts on Tuesday night to seclude himself in his Moscow hotel with Michelle and their daughters.
The decision to brush off the Russians on one of his two nights here miffed some in the Moscow government who did not understand why he would not devote the scarce time to his hosts.
Mr. Obama has seemed tired here, several times fumbling the pronunciation of Mr. Medvedevâs name and Mr. Putinâs title. Beginning a speech here, he mistakenly said he first met his wife in school instead of at the law firm where they actually met. And he misstated his youngest daughterâs age.

There was another video. Txhurl commented this video was dubbed over, so it might be the same one.
I don’t know whether it is, or not. Dr. Polarik is the expert, so he probably can determine the validity of this one.

I guess that he thought he was on vacation. In fact, these people seem to think that this whole 4-year gig IS a long
“Whoopie-I-won-the-lottery!”, ultimate-class vacation.

Bigger feet? Tie.
Bigger butt? Michelle.
If Michelle were wearing the black widow spider dress she wore on election night, her left arm were stretched out, she were looking at the camera, it’d be absolute perfection.

Bigger feet? Tie. Bigger butt? Michelle.LOL!...I gotta agree....

B. Hussein’s on his little power trip here, and it shows.
The Russians are going to be even less impressed with him - if that were possible!

He isn't a lazy slacker.
He is The Slacker In Chief, or is he The Poseur In Chief?
No, he is actually The Ineligible Unqualified Halfrican American Kenyan Anchor Baby Impostor In Chief.
