[4 t 4]

1. The Decider n/t

[tanyev]

2. Only 20 more days and he won't ever have to pretend to be concerned again.

I bet he's counting down, too.

[MisterP]

3. "submit or be exterminated, down to the newborn" n/t

[bdamomma]

4. like this POS man is going to soothe the conflict there, probably

saying well Condi is on it:puke:

[WI_DEM]

5. "And make sure there are no anchovies--and extra pepperoni.

[gratuitous]

10. That's just what it looked like to me

"So, yer sayin' this isn't Domino's? Then what am I callin' you for? Gah-zah? That's the next fella's problem. Heh, heh, heh."

[Warpy]

6. He looks like the tail end of a three week bender

January 20 isn't going to come soon enough for him, I think.

7. At this point, it's like phoning the President of Vietnam

about the crises between Pakistan and India.

Yeah, they are in the same "neighborhood", but, realistically, what can they (the PA) DO about this?

8. Commander AWOL - kickin back at the Imperial Pig Farm Upon Crawford

This wanker is on vacation again?

Holy crud. He has cemented his place in the Guiness Book of World Records as the Most Disgustipatingly OverVacationed Entity on the Planet.

Thanks a pantload, Republicons, for saddling America with this Fail Freak for 8 agonizingly long years of vacation and FAIL.

[Turbineguy]

9. He does do

that "concern look" real well. But it's actually his "I-don't-give-a-rusty-fuck" look.

[peace13]

11. Now now, he does have the phone right side up this time

And he's wearing his jacket that says *resident on it. He gets an A.

[Buzz Clik]

12. Bullshit. He only gets that serious when talking about baseball.

"Hell, no, Sabathia ain't worth that much. But what do ya expect from the Yankees? ... No! Shit no! We don't want nuthin to do with that goddam Manny Ramirez. Ya lost yer frickin' mind?"

[onethatcares]

13. do you actually believe he's on the phone to anyone important?

for cripes sake this is a whitehouse HANDOUT. Like the words (United States) mean anything anymore.

fuck him and the horse he couldn't ride in on, I can't wait til he's outa sight and outa mind.

[peekaloo]

14. Listen up I have a legacy to protect here. Hell all those road trips for peace

weren't just cheap photo ops or a waste of valuable taxpayer money just to have it blow up in my face!I drew a road map! Hummus is the problem here! Huh? Hummus, Hamas whatever......make me look good dammit! I'm wasting valuable vacation time!
