Hummm looks like they knew he was coming.

Where is Barry? Usually the VC-25s are in the air ferrying around his sorry self. If the Kenyan Post Turtle could constrain himself for a couple of days, then Plugs could have done what Cheney did in March of 2002 when he was jetsetting the M.E.

Otherwise, he is prolly on the C-32 which is painted up like tail # 28000 and 29000. In any case, I'm sure that their arrogance requires a clearing of the skies and rerouting of traffic. Simple computer modeling software pulling commercial traffic schedules from the intraweb could tell the bad guys that something is up and to go ahead and set up the rockets.

I wonder if President Soros is planning something evil for BiteMe?

Maybe they don’t have golf courses or basketball courts in the Green Zone. If they build them HE will come.

The same exact thing happened in 1929 and as soon as it did, FDR got on Television to tell the American people all about it!!! Amazing!!!

It takes a high IQ to remember something like that. /s

Hey there, we need Biden for comic relief.

This must be the Benny Hill administration. Or maybe Obama is doing a W.C. Fields impression out on the golf course. Maybe he'll throw Biden in a pond.

Did he leave home to get away from his wife? Maybe hanging out with a bunch of Muslims is less healthy than staying home with an irritated wife:)

Those terrorists were scared as hell about GW Bush. They knew he would pull the trigger when they bothered him.

Now they are laughing at Obama for being weak.

Yeah, and when Plugs makes a gaffe, Obama chases him around the WH lawn slapping the top of his head, followed by Rahm Emmanuel, Axelrod, Michelle and the staff.
