1. Great collection as usual. Thanks for posting. (nt)

[Cha]

2. Most of those pics are really sweet..

thanks, Clio~

[Clio the Leo]

3. lol, wonder which one you dont like....

.... I really debated posted that protest shot ... but I felt the thread was getting a bit too syrupy and it's not like that one shot would change any of our minds about the matter.

[Cha]

4. Oh, that's okay with me..I can take

it..I just couldn't say.."what a nice bunch of pics".:)

[The Damned]

19. Good call!

After all, we're Democrats, not Re(publicopiondoesn'tmatter)cans!

[one_voice]

5. I always enjoy your pictures.

Thanks for posting.

[Clio the Leo]

6. I dont know what we're gonna do when a less photogenic guy is in the WH...

... start playing Farmville I guess.

[flamingdem]

13. are you implying he's a hottie? nt

[Clio the Leo]

14. Seems to be a foregone conclusion.

Obama....

American citizen? ..... well, I cant say for sure as I have not seen the long form.

Nazi Socialist? ..... perhaps.

Greatest governmental figure head since Nebuchadnezzar .... I'm waiting for Beck to make up his mind.

but Hottie? .... why, even that Palin woman "has a crush on Obama."

[flamingdem]

17. He gets a beatles-like reaction yeah yeah yeah!

Lucky Michelle.

[Jennicut]

7. What was that hovercraft thing?!

And the jacket...gotta love the NYPD jacket.

[Clio the Leo]

8. It was ..... a hovercraft....

.... he apparently told the reporter "you're levitating!" Not very high off the ground obviously.

[mopinko]

9. oh, man, i am shot through the heart.

i am too old to be a cougar!

[Clio the Leo]

11. I think whomever wrote that low balled it a bit...

... I would have said "40s or 50s" not "30s."

[mopinko]

16. that's what i took it to mean.

i'm a reasonably well preserved 55. i wasn't really planning anything. just, ya know, a little something in the back pocket, just in case. i thought it was great that the idea seemed to be picking up steam. but really, people still think 30 is old? shit.

[Clio the Leo]

18. lol @ "I really wasn't planning anything." NT

[whathehell]

29. Yup...Thirties are still "young" in my opinion....Hell

I looked pretty good into my late forties..In fact...:evilgrin:

[patrice]

10. Love the look on ordinary people's faces as they greet President Obama.

[Clio the Leo]

12. Yeah, it's nice after hearing how "Obama is losing the white male vote..."

... which is true to see faces like the ones in the background here...

[jillan]

15. You didn't hear my new name was Hottie - You crack me up :)

[greenbird]

20. Wonderful pictures.

But "smokin' little body"? I am absolutely mortified that someone would speak to the President of the United States in that manner. I guess I'm old fashioned! It makes me embarrassed for my adopted city of Buffalo.

[babylonsister]

21. Great pics, thanks! And does anyone recall citizens hanging out on

bridges waiting for a glimpse of idiot son? :shrug: My memory seems to be failing me...

[saltpoint]

22. LOL!

[CTyankee]

23. Another sweet baby picture! Amazing how calm and happy they are in his arms!

I've never seen a pic of a squalling baby with him...If anything, he seems to calm them. That little baby girl looked like she knew him...I think it's incredible...

[Clio the Leo]

25. I saw one crying once....

... as he handed the baby BACK to her mother. I'm not kidding.

I've often thought that will be a metaphor for what 1/20/17 will be like with the American people playing the part of the baby. :)

[CTyankee]

27. That's interesting. I think what you are getting at is that Obama seems suited

to his role as president in a time of crisis. His level temperament reassures people who are in stress. It is possibly his strongest attribute as a leader...

[ieoeja]

24. The title you borrowed is severely flawed by the fact that she is YOUNGER than Obama.

[Clio the Leo]

26. And the title of your post is proof that ....

... DU'ers will pick at ANYTHING. ;)

Dramatic License. ;)

[MiniMe]

28. And nothing says "I care about babies" like hoding a baby doll by one leg

Sorry, I love the rest of the pics. Our President is so photogenic. But that one with the guy holding the doll up by one leg on Capital Hill is the one that caught my attention. I know it was only a doll, but it sounds like they were using the dolls to represent babies.

[tammywammy]

30. I like the jacket with "POTUS" on it.

Great pics as always.
