"The rumor that the President would veto the bill is reported to have come from a high White Horse souse"

TosaGuy ayon kay ...

I haven't read David Brooks since he was enthralled about Obama's perfectly creased pants. Has Brook's opinion changed upon seeing Obama's very wrinkled suit?

Tommy Vietor, get off that couch immediately!! Dude!!

MadisonMan ayon kay ...

I'm wondering: What's kept in those very nice chests of drawers?

Not a fan of the two paintings. Not enough color variability. I like the woman's summer dress though.

Cheryl ayon kay ...

I wonder if it smells like stale cigarettes.

What a pussified color scheme. Rust and tan.

Shanna ayon kay ...

Is it me, or are those drapes really ugly?

The whole room looks drab and sad.

Except the wallpaper. I like the stripes.

Today: "What boy on the couch? There is no boy on the couch."

Next month: "Look, the first time I heard about the boy on the couch was when I read it in the papers, just like the rest of you."

I've often wanted to do a face-plant after listening to this guy.

"I'm wondering: What's kept in those very nice chests of drawers?"

Under the socks and underwear are the Playboys and the boy band fan fiction.

Scott M ayon kay ...

Having just been informed that he was being preemptively drafted for more war in the Middle East, young Jeffery collapsed in a fit of apathy.

Mommy, Mommy! Please make him stop!

In an effort to appear more domestic, Michelle took up knitting, but the crafter demographic appeared unswayed by her photo realistic little boy afghan.

George M. Spencer ayon kay ...

Why would the White House release this photo?

The president's back? The face plant? And who are those people?

"Thanks for bringing him over. While he's much too young to be director of the Fed, I think he's just right for Secratary of State."

"Look, I admit that this robot kid is pretty convincing. But he doesn't look anywhere near old enough to plausibly be of voting age. That's what you promised. I think I'm gonna go with the general amnesty plan."

One is a little man in a world too big for him falling on his face. The other is a kid on a couch.

'Timmy, when I was young and my Mom called me 'Buster,' perhaps I was already thinking how great I would one day become.

You see, I have to make sure activist ideology and racially divisive politics can then be attached to a definition of the 'Middle-Class' and Left-liberal politics. I owe those NPR ladies a lot. We've spent a whole lot of money and made a lot of promises, Timmy.

You see, all this is then spoon-fed to the American public through careful image management, political rhetoric and frankly, a lot of bullshit, Timmy.'

'Go away, Mister'

'You're now part of the Dream machine, Timmy, like you Mom and Dad here.'

'Thank you'

George M. Spencer ayon kay ...

The two paintings at left?

When I noticed them, I thought, "How sad. How lonely." No majesty. No people.

Both by Hopper and added during Obama's term.

From The White House Blog: "Emblematic examples of his work, the two paintings lent by the Whitney Museum capture the strong sense of atmosphere and light as well as the empty stillness that characterize much of Hopper’s imagery."

The empty stillness.

(In fairness to Obama, other paintings in the Oval Office include portraits of Washington and Lincoln, a Childe Hassam watercolor, a Rockwell rendering of the Statue of Liberty, and a depiction of the Grand Tetons.) Interestingly, the Rockwell painting shows the Statue from the rear. Rather lonely. Aloof.

George M. Spencer ayon kay ...

Oh, and yes, if you click on the link to the White House Blog, there's a photo of Obama taken from the rear admiring the paintings.

Obama reportedly told the youngster what his share of the national debt is. He got a smile from the parents when he remarked, "That doesn't mean we intend to ever pay it down!"

Regarding the paintings.

Hopper was undoubtedly a fine artist, but his paintings are among the most depressing works I've ever seen. I call them "landscapes for slit wrists."

Does Obama actually spend any time working in that room?

"And now, Mr. President, our son will enact how your presidency will be perceived by history."
