President Barack Obama can be heard whistling moments before a cabinet meeting Tuesday at the White House.

Kawanza carols???

[Rodamala]

The French Mistake?

Watch me, faggots!

(Piss on you! I'm workin' for Mel Brooks!)

[LibLieSlayer]

That should be herpes meds.

[rlmorel]

“Damn a man who whistles!”

Funny...I remember it too, and never gave it much thought.

Only in the last few years did I find out it was an ancient maritime superstition...whistling on board a sailing vessel was thought to encourage high winds and bad weather...

Little Pink Houses
By John Mellencamp

There’s a black man with a black cat
Livin’ in a black neighborhood
He’s got an interstate runnin’ through his front yard
You know he thinks that he’s got it so good

And there’s a woman in the kitchen
Cleanin’ up the evenin’ slop
And he looks at her and says
“Hey darlin’, I can remember when you could stop a clock”

Oh, but ain’t that America for you and me
Ain’t that America somethin’ to see, baby
Ain’t that America home of the free
Little pink houses for you and me

There’s a young man in a T-shirt
Listenin’ to a rockin’ rollin’ station
He’s got greasy hair, greasy smile
He says, “Lord, this must be my destination”

‘Cause they told me when I was younger
Boy, you’re gonna be president
But just like every thin’ else those old crazy dreams
Just kinda came and went

Oh, but ain’t that America for you and me
Ain’t that America somethin’ to see baby
Ain’t that America home of the free
Little pink houses for you and me

Well, there’s people and more people
What do they know, know, know?
Go to work in some high rise
And vacation down at the Gulf of Mexico

Ooh yeah, and there’s winners and there’s losers
But they ain’t no big deal
‘Cause the simple man, baby, pays for the thrills
The bills, the pills that kill

Oh, but ain’t that America for you and me
Ain’t that America somethin’ to see baby
Ain’t that America home of the free
Little pink houses for you and me

What is Obama whistling?

Bathhouse Barry was whistling 'YMCA'.... his favorite Village People song.

[nascarnation]

maybe the Flinstones theme?

“we’ll have a gay old time”

Barry Bacall’s Whistle Line

[Old Yeller]

He needs to whistle occasional to keep his lips on the right position to take on Reggie.

[Mmogamer]

Dwee-dow duh duh dwee-dow

[Georgia Girl 2]

Whistling is the least of the things Barry should not be doing.

[Para-Ord.45]

Looks to me like her d**k flopped to the wrong side and (s)he`s re-adjusting.

[Oratam]

My first thought about "Pink Houses" was how condescending a song it is. Thanks for posting all the lyrics because the telling line is,

‘Cause they told me when I was younger
Boy, you’re gonna be president
But just like every thin’ else those old crazy dreams
Just kinda came and went

Very interesting.

Did you know Dom's wife was also in the movie? She was the school teacher. LOL Mel's wife {Anne Bancroft} is also in a cameo shot where they are in church singing. Unlike Dom's wife she isn't in the film credits though. When I saw the dance posted at #15 French Mistake scene was the first thing that popped into my mind LOL.

The origional movie plan Sheriff Bart was supposed to be played by Richard Pryor who co-wrote the movie. Pryor's drug use at the time got in the way and Clevon Little got the part instead.

[Organic Panic]

Not a care in the world for president “ I will not rest.”

[Salamander]

That is a shame about Pryor.

I loved him and he would’ve been a great sheriff.

[rlmorel]

Well, John Mellencamp is a major league liberal...so we shouldn’t be surprised.
