    The full interview was very informative and reiterated his stance on the debt ceiling. The light hearted side of the interview was fun. :D

      Michelle still think he’s cute, well so do I Mr. President. I also think he is a darn good president, and to deal with all the crap he have to deal with from the left and those radical terrorists on the right, I will always continue to pray for him and his family, and he will always have my support.

        Amen…may he have both his wishes and more on his 50th. He certainly has all my support, gratitude, and well wishes cubed and x 1000,000. Thank you Mr. President, and happy, happy birthday.

    He is just too cute on turning 5-0. Adorable.

    I hope he gets out on his birthday and gets his hamburger.

    Any plans for the President’s B-day Chipsticks?

    In the clip he says Miche says that she still thinks he’s cute. But when he was relaying that message, there was a pause between “Still thinks I’m ……… cute.” The word was sexy, but he was trying to make it appropriate so he was searching for a milder word. Don’t worry, Mr. Prez! I think you’re sexier now than you were then. I think you’re sorta like fine wine, the more you age, the better and better you get. Yum! :mrgreen: : lustful leering:
    ps- in terms of getting your b-day wish, I certainly hope congress is decent enough to make it come true.

      I really hope he gets his b-day wish too lisa.

      But I’m right up there with you on the “sexy” comment. That salt and black pepper hair is such a turn on. And maybe Michelle might not say this in public but I’ll bet she thinks that too. ;)

      You took the words right out of my mouth, lisalovesobama. He’s not just getting older, he’s getting sexier. I’m sure Michelle thinks that. And I think he knows that too. :)

      Happy 50th B-Day in advance, Mr. President. I hope you get that birthday wish from Congress and other more personally desirous gifts as well. ;)

    Does anyone else, just a tinge of that Elvis Presley sexy drawl when President Obama speaks? I just love the sound of his voice, I think it might just be the sexiest aspect of Him.

      You’re right ber6964. I could listen to his voice all day. Sometimes when I’m driving home from work I listen to “Dreams from my Father” just to hear his voice.

      We have a bit of a traffic problem especially in the evenings. It’s a long ride home and a girls got to do what a girls got to do to stay sane.

        Too right Donna! He has got the sexiest voice I have ever heard. I listen to “Dreams From My Father” or “The Audacity of Hope” at night before bed to wind down and relax. He is just TOO SEXY for words and in that picture in the elevator wow!!! too hot to handle, too cool to touch! I’ll bet those SS guys in there with them are thinking ‘find a room’! they just both ooze sex appeal.

        Sorry to be so ott but it had to be said, lol.

          ber6964, you may be on to something there. :) I’m definitely not an Elvis Presley type of girl, but when I recall some of the President’s vocal nuianses during his White House Correspondence Dinner speech, I kinda get that impression too, especially during the speech when he was pointing to the video clip of “The Donald” in that Penthouse White House clip and said,.”Let’s take a look right thar-r-r.” His voice did have a heavy, husky kinda drawl. When I first heard the video at the time, I didn’t associate the husky sound to anyone else in particular, but the more I think about it, the more it does kinda sound like Elvis. :)

          But let me be clear and make this disclaimer: When I’m listening the President Obama’s sexy voice on his audiotape books while I’m driving long distances or when I’m listening to youtube videos of him late at night (with earphones on so that my husband can’t hear ;) ), I am definitely NOT thinking of Elvis. :) :) :)

    When he is very comfortable, I sometimes hear what I can only describe as a kind of urban drawl; a little bit of the brotha’. While it sucks that the gray came from the job, he is still cute and sexy (love the walk). Add in the incredible intellect, drive, heart and athleticism and he is the whole package and then some. Hope he and we get the birthday gift that he wishes for.

    Chipsticks,

    Could you possibly add the text quote to this post? I’ve set my 60 something year old Mom up with an RSS reader to see these posts (because she loves the Obamas) but she doesn’t get how to play audio/video so she won’t know what this post is referring to without the text. Thanks!

    The more textual info the better for her, when you post videos/audio etc.

    Mark Knoller: WH official confirms Pres Obama will meet with Maj Ldr Reid and Min Ldr Pelosi at 6pm.

    • 87 africa
      July 24, 2025 at 5:04 pm

      Supposedly Reid, Pelosi, McConnell and Boner were meeting to forge some kind of plan before 8 p.m. It is so disturbing that these Republicans, in their efforts to derail this president, put the country at such risk.

      Long ago, President Obama warned them to do their homework early, much like his young daughters do. But when you are hell bent on destroying somebody, nothing makes sense.

      It is a travesty.

      Blue I’ve seen this footage. But really the president was doing what every good husband would do… make sure his wife’s dress doesn’t blow up.

      But that laugh in the background is just crazy funny. Although I don’t think it was appropriate in this video.

      • 90 HZ
        July 24, 2025 at 5:33 pm

        Donna, I am with you on this one. When I first saw it some time ago, I felt that he was trying to keep her dress from flying up. It has happened in the past when she was decending AF1.

      • 91 anniebella
        July 24, 2025 at 5:38 pm

        I look at it like this it’s his wife, so what if he had his hand on her booty. I don’t think she was complaining. But I do think he was trying to keep her dress from blowing up also.

      • 92 P
        July 24, 2025 at 9:29 pm

        LOL haven’t seen this video in a while…but yes Donna you are right. It was pretty windy in Hawaii that night and her dress was blowing and both PBO and Mrs O was trying to hold it down. Although from photos PBO was chuckling about it but hey according to anniebella it’s his wife so he can tease her all he wants! That laugh in the video is veryyyyyyyyy creepy and I think it was recently added because I can’t remember hearing it when I first saw this video.

    That’s interesting…the turtle and tan man not in that meeting. I think…..for what it’s worth…..that tan man has had to go crawling to Miss Nancy to get the votes to pass the debt ceiling . She is tough, and she is the key, and tan man will have to agree to things he doesn’t want to. They can’t get the votes of the stupid tea partiers, so he, for the FIRST time, is going to have to go begging to the Democrats. This meeting is VERY intresting.

      Agree. Chips, of course, will let us know as soon as she has anything. The surreality of it. Sunday, six o’clock, hotter than hell…I promised myself I would not be checking for “Breakings” all day, but broke that promise hours ago.

        Remember when Bohener was yelling about the President needed to get back to Washington and meet with them and lead. Well, the President knew what game they were playing and lying all over him. Now the President called them out on Friday(like he said he would, remember words to Cantor, ” I will take this to the people). These guys are playing with the wrong President. Now Boehner has to go and lead. Get the votes from guess who, Nancy. And while you are there with Ms. Pelosi, maybe you can ask for a few tips on leadership, Mr. Speaker. And lay off of our President, sir with all do respect.

      My guess is that they are likely mapping out an endgame. Repubs have not been negotiating in good faith and they need to figure out how to end it.

No one is allowed to touch it and I am like a lioness with her cups if anyone goes near it with a drink or grubby hands, even my wonderful son has been growled at for trying to look at it with chocolaty hands Lol!!

    Chips, that picture of inauguration day takes me to this video, which still today when I watch it makes me cry uncontrollably, and when I look at that crowd of the Neighborhood Ball I KNOW those people are STILL on the President’s side and will be a force to reckon with in 2012.
    As Sir Paul McCartney said to the President when he played at the WH ” Mr President, I just want you know there are BILLIONS of us rooting for you…”

      P.S. I meant to add: Just LOOK at Michelle and Barack in that video, aren’t they just the epitome of LOVE? Of course she still thinks he’s cute! As BILLIONS of us do too! Their picture should be in the Dictionary under the definition of a loving couple.

        When Barack and Michelle was on Oprah in May, one of the thing I love which Michelle said, when they were talking about love, Michelle said choose someone who will make you better. I love that.
