“Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.”

UGH I JUST LOVE YOU SO MUH-HUH-HUCHHH
      → President Barack Obama

The leader of the free world.

How fucking awesome is he?

He’s so bad ass in that top right picture.

But I keep getting distracted by the top left picture.  WHAT.  IS.  HE.  DOING.  I LOVE IT.

We definitley need four more years of this.  Politics aside, we need a president this fucking cool.

I think the President and Michelle were reading Where The Wild Things Are or something in that top left picture.

I have said it before and I will say it again. We have the coolest president.

Presidential Pranks

“Jerry Ford is so dumb he can’t fart and chew gum at the same time.”-LBJ

Say what you want about Gerald Ford, but he could fart…

Ford would fart really loud, and turn to the nearest Secret Service agent and say, “Jesus Christ, did you do that?  Show a little class.”

If you reply you’ll get a cookie better blog.
