In reply to the discussion: CNN Ticker "Obama, the Bear,(In Minn) is loose and trying to reconnect with voters" lol (pic heavy) [View all]sheshe2

Washington - The bear is loose!
Those were President Barack Obamas words as he ditched his motorcade last week Wednesday, and left the White House on foot, favoring the fresh air in a walk toward the Interior Department.
Tourists near the White House never expected to see the president in person on a steamy spring afternoon. One woman squealed with delight; another suggested she thought Wednesdays sighting might be an Obama impostor.
Since taking office, Obama has grumbled periodically about the claustrophobia that sets in when his every move is surrounded by intense security. That makes it nearly impossible to enjoy the simple pleasures that others take for granted.
Its good to be out, Obama said.
