1. Thanks - I'm glad he's getting some rest!

[flpoljunkie]

7. Obama will be in Greensboro, NC, tomorrow for a townhall meeting. Tickets gone in very short order!

[polichick]

30. I'm sure he'll be fired up and ready to go again...

Hopefully he'll do some big events in PA too ~ so far he's only done a couple of closed events, and some volunteers are getting antsy.

[flpoljunkie]

33. Obama begins a 6 day bus tour of Pennsylvania on Friday.

[polichick]

34. GREAT! I was just telling a fellow volunteer yesterday that I'll bet...

...he does some kind of tour here, since she was one of those feeling ignored.

Just googled it ~ no schedule yet, but the tour ends up here in SE PA!

[beachmom]

2. Wow, Obama's staffer to the left of him looks, well, good in a tank shirt.

Very fine indeed. :blush:

[flpoljunkie]

4. Indeed!

[MadBadger]

6. Quit drooling, he could look like this from the front...

[flpoljunkie]

15. Could it perhaps be Obama's body man, former Duke basketball player Reggie Love?

Reggie Love: Barack Obama's body man

February 21, 2008

When he's not returning telephone calls, prepping his boss for television appearance,s and leading the wagons on the campaign trail, the former Duke basketball and football player is scrimmaging Obama in pick-up games.

16. I like that face

Who is that?

[Botany]

18. That is Greg Oden who played for Ohio State last year.

And he is a good guy.

[kwenu]

22. That's just mean. Shame.

[Barack_America]

25. Or like this...

[Catherina]

35. OWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

Someone please grab me a fan or something. I need some air!

Edit to say bookmarked for the photo and downloaded the damn photo!

[Barack_America]

9. That's the staffer? Aren't bodyguards usually the ones that carry "guns".

;)

Thank you, thank you very much. I'll be here all week. Please try the prime rib.

[tammywammy]

23. LOL

[tishaLA]

20. I'm glad I'm not the first to notice

[Botany]

3. @ last a President who looks good in sportswear.

G.Q. President

11. What, this doesn't do it for you?

Now watch this drive!

[gateley]

14. ....

:spray:

[Botany]

19. My dream is that they send bush out w/ his chain saw and no .....

... handlers ... God would take care of the rest. I have never seen
anybody look less comfortable in their own skin.

[GarbagemanLB]

5. He definitely deserves it!

[azmouse]

8. Thanks for the great pics!

Obama looks very fit and ready for the WH.

[flpoljunkie]

32. Yes, he does!

[Warren DeMontague]

10. I think "Mr. President" is going to suit him very, very well.

Too bad he's going to have a long list of The Chimpster's fuckups to clean up after.

[Saint in the City]

12. Pleated pants, you are disgusting Mister Obama

Pleated pants, I thought he was young? What a liar! Worse than the Hillary snipergate.

[Alexander]

21. You're joking, right?

Sometimes it's hard to tell who is being facetious and who is a member of the Shillbot wingnut contingent.

[Barack_America]

24. Lol! I hate pleated pants!

And yes, it's something I look at. FWIW, most of the time Barack wears flat-front, from what I've seen.

I don't enjoy being this shallow. But I was in school when Z. Cavaricci's were popular, so in my defense, I've suffered significant trauma in this regard.

[FrenchieCat]

26. That 's your first post?

:rofl:


Let me correct you.....those are pleated Chinos...which are well...totally the rage!

Men's styles in pants:"Skinny, slim-regular and pleated Oxford bags for chinos!

13. Mr Super Relaxed coming back

Pumped to PA! Who's the campaign staffer?
These are classic, FLorida! Thanks!

[butterfly77]

17. Lookin Good...

[FedoraLV]

27. I love the third photo

It gives me a sense of how he will look when he is older: I know he will be as distinguished as Rep. Conyers.

[K Gardner]

29. He is already *my* President. These are the kinds of pics that make one smile :-)

[4themind]

thanks

[Catherina]

37. Thanks for posting these great photos of my President! n/t
