Obama honors talk like a pirate day

[I AM NOT THAT GUY 5,715]

Obama met with a "pirate" today for International Talk Like a Pirate Day but still doesn't have time to meet with his Jobs Council. LIKE(+) if you think Obama should get the hook.

Yar har har!

Make sure you tune in November 6th, 2012 when the crew mutinies and forces the captain to walk the plank!!!! Happy Halloween

Is this what Republicans have to complain about? Their party and their nominee are crumbling and they're mad at Obama talking to a pirate.

I know you are excited about the upcoming event, so here is a preview of the festivities planned!

[Penny Lane 8,159]

He doesn't look very Captain-like.

[Robby999 1,024]

Can not argue that fact with you. In my opinion the last democratic president that actually looked like a captain was ole Bill " I'm in it for the Booty " Clinton!

I'm glad you're focusing on the important things.

By the way, this photo is from 2009 and was done as a joke for the correspondence dinner. FYI.

If you were looking for this today, you would have missed it. This picture is over three years old. Wouldn't know that watching Fox and Friends - they don't do news. Neither do the crackheads over at Drudge. They all just do useless attacks on Obama 24/7. They are, after all, the propaganda organs of the GOP.

White House Back-Story: The President And The Pirate

By Mark Knoller

Pity the poor historian a couple hundred years from now, at a loss to figure out why Barack Obama, an American president at the start of the 21st century, was photographed meeting in the Oval Office with – a pirate.

What kind of unexplained policy initiative was being played out in this photo, the historian might wonder, perhaps confusing it for something other than what it was: a gag – one of dozens – for the president's remarks at the White House Correspondent's Dinner.

Fcuking morons!

[Penny Lane 8,159]

Don't let facts get in the way of your outrage, Republicans!!

[I AM NOT THAT GUY 5,715]

So, Obama did meet with his Job Council yesterday?

[Penny Lane 8,159]

If he did not, it wasn't because he was busy talking to a freaking pirate. You'd think people would research these things before broadcasting them.

Duh! Of course it is. It is not like they have a jobs bill waiting to be signed or anything...
