News, but not the serious kind
You bumped WHAT with Obama?
Listen up, people! The graduation ceremony at Annapolis is coming up, so sign up for your Goofy Act with the President.
The White House has graciously offered to let you get photographed doing one spontaneous thing with the President, but you have to decide in advance.
Sign up here for hugs. We’ve also got fist bumps, elbow bumps, chest bumps, and folks who wanna stick out their tongue with Obama in the background.
Earl? You want to SHAKE HANDS? Are you out of your freakin’ mind? You never quite fit in, do you?
Good God! Lonnie, no! You cannot assume an Elvis Presley Las Vegas stage position with Obama! Okay, I’ll ask…

I’m offended that you didn’t post the video where the prez and I did our “secret handshake” and then tap danced in unison to “Put on a Happy Face.” I really thought that was the best one of the day.
Sorry Mel, we charge to see that one….
“Alright”? Reuters spells “all right” as “alright” like illiterate high school students who are confused between “alright” and “already”? Time to give up hope for humanity? But, we already knew that.
Finding that spelling in a promotional blurb, and not even in the blog inself, provoked that response? I gather you don’t have a nice beach to go to on Memorial Day weekend?
In his speech to the graduates of the Naval Academy, did he mention that he wants wounded vets own private insurance to pay their medical bills. “After all, it is a volunteer military”, he says.
Shame, shame!
Robert, I heard the Big O is working on a deal to let us go to the beach at Club Gitmo for the 4th weekend. You in?!
Dear Robert, just letting you know that making snarky remarks when someone is appalled by your spelling is the classic response from one who is embarrassed and wants to strike back. The classic rejoinder is something like “get a life” or “I see you have time on your hands,” etc. This reaction is considered juvenile by psychologists. The idea is to deflect criticism back onto the critic. But educated people see through this ploy. The proper thing to do is not try to insult the person who corrected you, but thank the person who pointed out your error, and correct yourself.
