2. Impeachment, for sure.
Pundits would burst into flames instead of getting woodies like Tweety did.

5. Better yet
What if Obama held up the arrival of the carrier at its home base for an extra day or two, and had the carrier positioned so that it looked like it was still far out to sea, just for the sake of his photo op? You think Tweety would be gushing over how manly he looked? Would all the popular media outlets break into regular programming to cover it with appropriately celebratory reports?

Of course not. That's just nonsense! It would never happen, because the bulldogs of the Fourth Estate would rip the cover off the unseemliness of it all, right?

6. Obama never served
so he wouldn't fly. He trusts his military (pilots) anyway

11. I know that
I know that I wasn't making fun of the current POTUS. I was saying he always trust his military--well unless they get out articles in the Rolling Stone
