Thread: Barack Obama: Master of Disguise...

I think one of the posters to the article commented that the desk was donated from Queen Victoria), but the desk is in the Oval Office which is located in the White House. Thus, it's his desk...until he's no longer President.)

My hat's off to the article itself for also showing former Presidents who did it before Obama. Otherwise, it would've been very foolish (not to mention very hypercrytical) to condemn President Obama for being "so illmannered" but give his predecessors a pass. Thus, it doesn't surprise me in the least to see anti-Obama supporters voicing their outrage over this but have "no comment" when they're reminded that previous Republican Presidents once put their feet up on this famous piece of furniture as well.

Can't have it both ways, folks. Either it's illmannered behavior or you just let it go and consider it "acceptable" as long as it's done in your office and not on the living coffee table. Gotta keep it in perspective.

Thank you for reading my entire piece...I appreciate it.

I'm sure a lot worse things have heppened under the Resolute Desk - by presidents and others.

**** - I'd put my feet up too if I was the first female president!

Monkey see Monkey do...

Okay, sorry, you did a good parody that I actually read through it and still believed it was written by a far-rightist nut.
Oh, and also saw your political stance. Nice work on the OP

Thanks for the tip of scrolling down on this one, when i first clicked on it and seen it was blogspot I just thought go figure. It's like when I was checking one of Kal'Stang's sources and found it on stormfront organization's white pride world wide crap site discredited by the website to even go any further...

It's not a matter of the furniture. It's a matter of respectful regard for things. The man has no respect for just about anything, including himself.

No problem.

I learned long ago not to jump to conclusions around here. If you don't read the entire article chances are you just might miss something...in this case, the humor of it all.

This thread is like a tarpit that just keeps on trapping anything that comes near it.
