Summer of silliness: Obama and the ogling freeze frame

By Michelle Malkin  •  July 10, 2009 12:06 PM

When President Obama bowed and scraped before the Saudi king, I gave it to him.

And he deserved it.

But the tizzy over the “ogling” photo is unfair.

I just watched the video and it’s clear to me he wasn’t even paying attention to the young girl in the wine-colored dress. Obama was helping another young woman down the stairs and glancing down to grab her hand. You can see him talking to the young woman (black sweater, printed skirt) while the supposed temptress made her way up in the other direction.

I don’t even think he saw the young girl he’s accused of checking out.

Sarkozy is another story.

Now, can we get back to Obama ogling and molesting our wallets?

***

I know, I know. There’s another shot of him supposedly checking out another woman’s backside. Guess what? I think it’s out of context, too.

***

Far more disturbing photo from G8…Obama’s PDA with Gaddafi:

    Good analysis. Although I would love every opportunity to tag Obama, there are much more serious (and obvious) transgressions to worry about.

    I agree. This is an unnecessary parallel with Bill Clinton, but it was good for a laugh. Could they have staged it to distract from the costly health care debate? How about distracting us from the lack of serious sanctions by the G8 for Iran, over killing hundreds of their own?

    Ask Palin what “fair” has to do with anything. This is war, ain’t nothing “fair” about it. They do what they can to destroy us, we need to put down the wine glass and start fighting back. Or else just surrender.

    I think the photo should be taken as humor and, at worst, gentle chiding, the way you would a friend who gets caught.

    I’m hoping folks aren’t taking the photo too seriously, but, seeing a Jake Tapper tweet, looks like a few are.

    That other photo is the one that cracks me up and not because I think Obama was checking out a lady’s backside. In it, to me, Berlusconi looks like he is ensuring his zipper is up (for a change after his recent sex scandals) and Medvedev looks like a dummy frozen in place without Putin there with a hand up his backside to animate him.

Bowing to the King of Saudi Arabia, giving the Queen of England an IPOD as an official gift, 57 states, believing we can spend our way to prosperity, if the Government lacks money he prints it, virtually begging the Chinese to keep lending us money, appointing tax cheats to Government jobs, nationalizing banks and GM, pushing unproven wind and solar energy over proven coal and nuclear, canceling the F22 Raptor fighter, claiming he saved a few hundred thousand jobs, his declining poll numbers, ……

    I agree with your assessment of the pics Michelle, further more I don’t care if he was checking out the rears.

    I wish he would spend a little more time in the areas Bill Clinton excelled in. Then he would have less time to screw up the rest of America.

    Besides what man wouldn’t look for an outlet if he had to go home to the White House every night to skeletor and her mother glaring at him all the time.

    Which does bring up an interesting point.

    How can anyone call themselves a comedian and not be ripping on the mother-in-law jokes that are available out there with Michelle’s mama living with them in the White House? Come-on that is a rich field of comic material, dying to be plowed.

    However, even if he was, it proves a couple of things:

    (1) He is a man.

    (2) He is not an evil robot sent from the future to destroy America.

    There are very few men who don’t notice beautiful women, and you can’t notice them without looking.

    Sorry Michelle, but you’re wrong on this one. Da’ Prez was doing move 39, which is the pretend to look back for a purpose while catching an eyeful. Done it myself many times. The key to identifying this is that his only interest to the rear (pardon the pun) is his junior delegate…who is ABOVE him. No one looks down at the step behind them (as ABCnews asserts) when they leave a step…unless they’ve feel they’ve stepped in something. So…he’s guilty as charged. Look, its a quick glance at a pretty stunning view; trouble is, he and his kind tell us that these natural impulses are SOOOO wrong. In other words…fry him for the hypocrisy…not the gawk.

    For the record, I’m not convinced that Obama wasn’t cleverly positioning his eyes.

    If he really cared about taking the hand of the woman he was helping, then he would have looked back to find it – he wouldn’t have kept his gaze fixed as he awaited her hand to enter his vision.

    However, I don’t care if he was looking or not.

    I tend to agree with this. I just read a comment the other day by someone named John Hawkins, and it seems appropriate here. It has to do with fighting fire with fire and not continuing to be so “nice”. “Instead of continuing to complain, here’s a better idea. Why don’t conservatives do opposition research on the journalists who are endlessly running stories about Palin and Joe the Plumber? Have these “journalists” ever been arrested? Any skeletons in their closets? Certainly Keith Olbermann’s and Maureen Dowd’s personal life is just as newsworthy as Joe the Plumber’s or Sarah Palin’s.” Which brings up the question…why are we not doing some of that? We have to stop being so polite. These people are not nice and they don’t play fair. We are doormats and that has to stop!! John McCain taught me one thing…doormats are losers.

It is not like Mr. Obama or any normal male admiring a beautiful woman is going to behave like Bill Clinton with Monica.

    How can a “natural born citizen” of the United States be subject – at birth – to the laws of anothercountry?

    Even in a throw away thread like this one I don’t think you can generate any interest in this. Either everyone is happy with the explanation Obama has given for all the secrecy on his records, (there isn’t one), or maybe they think everthing is so well hidded the truth cannot be uncovered.

    Has there ever been a thread here devoted to Obama’s legitimacy to be President?

    We really do live in strange times.

    Nice try on the Sotomayor connection, but you missed it badly. MM is not being considered for Supreme Court justice, and a discussion is not a judicial hearing.

    We need people on the Supreme Court who are, as is Lady Justice, blind to diversity of opinion and background. Justices are there to apply the law, not to exercise their opinions. Sotomayor’s judgment in the CT firefighters’ case reveals a woman who is willing to place her preferences above the law. Not what we need!!

    Summer of silliness: Obama and the ogling freeze frame
    By Michelle Malkin • July 10, 2009 12:06 PM When President Obama bowed and scraped before the Saudi king, I gave it to him.

    And he deserved it.

    But the tizzy over the “ogling” photo is unfair.

    I just watched the video and it’s clear to me he wasn’t even paying attention to the young girl in the wine-colored dress. Obama was helping another young woman down the stairs and glancing down to grab her hand. You can see him talking to the young woman (black sweater, printed skirt) while the supposed temptress made her way up in the other direction.

    I don’t even think he saw the young girl he’s accused of checking out.

    Sarkozy is another story.

    Now, can we get back to Obama ogling and molesting our wallets?

    ***

    I know, I know. There’s another shot of him supposedly checking out another woman’s backside. Guess what? I think it’s out of context, too.

    ***

    Far more disturbing photo from G8…Obama’s PDA with Gaddafi:

    Besides what man wouldn’t look for an outlet if he had to go home to the White House every night to skeletor and her mother glaring at him all the time.

    Which does bring up an interesting point.

No one looks down at the step behind them (as ABCnews asserts) when they leave a step…unless they’ve feel they’ve stepped in something. So…he’s guilty as charged.

    I tend to agree with this. I just read a comment the other day by someone named John Hawkins, and it seems appropriate here. It has to do with fighting fire with fire and not continuing to be so “nice”. “Instead of continuing to complain, here’s a better idea. Why don’t conservatives do opposition research on the journalists who are endlessly running stories about Palin and Joe the Plumber? Have these “journalists” ever been arrested? Any skeletons in their closets? Certainly Keith Olbermann’s and Maureen Dowd’s personal life is just as newsworthy as Joe the Plumber’s or Sarah Palin’s.” Which brings up the question…why are we not doing some of that? We have to stop being so polite. These people are not nice and they don’t play fair. We are doormats and that has to stop!! John McCain taught me one thing…doormats are losers.

    What would be wrong if Mr. Obama actually checked out a beautiful woman? As long as he is not pulling an Elliot Spitzer, what is all the nonsense about? If Elle McPherson walks into a restaurant or walks on a beach, every normal male is going to look, and look in awe. It is not like Mr. Obama or any normal male admiring a beautiful woman is going to behave like Bill Clinton with Monica. I sure as heck don’t want to live in a place like Gaza where young men are arrested for looking at a fully clad woman. Please let us not become the Taliban or Hamas.

    Now, can we get back to Obama ogling and molesting our wallets?
    Now, can we get back to Obama admitting that he was born a British subject?

    How can a “natural born citizen” of the United States be subject – at birth – to the laws of anothercountry?
    Even in a throw away thread like this one I don’t think you can generate any interest in this. Either everyone is happy with the explanation Obama has given for all the secrecy on his records, (there isn’t one), or maybe they think everthing is so well hidded the truth cannot be uncovered.

    Has there ever been a thread here devoted to Obama’s legitimacy to be President?

    We really do live in strange times.

    lgm said: MM is a wise woman, trying to steer the discussion away from sexism. Her background clearly gives her a different perspective on certain issues. Diversity of opinion and background is a good thing.

    Nice try on the Sotomayor connection, but you missed it badly. MM is not being considered for Supreme Court justice, and a discussion is not a judicial hearing.

    We need people on the Supreme Court who are, as is Lady Justice, blind to diversity of opinion and background. Justices are there to apply the law, not to exercise their opinions. Sotomayor’s judgment in the CT firefighters’ case reveals a woman who is willing to place her preferences above the law. Not what we need!!

    Geeesh… she’s 16 (or 15, depending on your source). Did you also ogle Obie’s daughter in her “peace” t-shirt.

    I doubt her age was written on her butt.

    If this were GWB in the picture what would tomorrow’s front page picture be and what would the caption say underneath it? Until everyone understands that the “other side” does not have a rule book nor an etiquette book that they go by we are going to be losers. They lie (look at what Obama said to get elected), they cheat (does Federal Income Tax ring a bell) and they steal (or do you have $90,000 in your freezer?), in other words they do anything to get elected and the media go right along with it. They have the money and the media on their side, but we have the majority on ours. Forget a teaparty in the local park – how about at their front door? If you don’t have the intestinal fortitude (I am being nice here) to play the same way they do, we are always going to be losers and God help our country – because you are not helping at all.

    Far more disturbing photo from G8…Obama’s PDA with Gaddafi:

    The One is not fooling me, he really wants what Gaddafi’s got — Amazon bodyguards.

    Hey, getting chummy with Gaddafi could’ve led to a late-night meeting across the street:

    Gaddafi’s private, all-female Amazon Guard will stay in a building next to the headquarters of the tax police, across the street from where US president Barack Obama is expected to be housed.

    I’m with you SergeantMajorBill on this one. Stop playing decent with people who don’t like us. I would cringe many times when the media insulted President Bush with their headlines and misconstrued sentences ensuring they made him look bad, angry, or worse insane. Enough already! Time to fight fire with fire–no more Mr. Nice Guy where Obama is concerned–we need to point out every single flaw he has and there are MANY.

    I agree with you to an extent..nice guys finish last yada yada. But hey..whose ox do you think will get gored if we make a big deal of this? Do you think a corrupt media, and an immoral dem electorate that didnt give a crap about their President getting a BJ from an intern in the Oval Orifice is going to care about The One checking out the junk of a 17 year old??? Not a chance. We should just move on, and fight another battle another day.

    Dear Michelle et al -
    If you’re excusing Hussein Obama al Potusi based on the video – then you should re-watch it in slo-mo. “O-man” could care less about the woman behind him until she reaches out, yet ABC, etc., just feel they have to make excuses for their One, rather than let us decide for ourselves. Hey, maybe he turned and looked at the girl because he thought he felt power flow from him because she touched his suit.

    Arguably the Biggest Booty of any ‘First Lady’ in history. This does not though, make Barry a ‘Leg & A$$ ‘ man.

    Just IMAGINE what would be going on right now if G.W. Bush, Dick Cheney, or Mark Sanford were caught on video lusting after a 16 year old’s a$$. It would be NON-STOP in the around-the-clock news cycles, the night time comedy shows, and every single appearance by a Hollywood actor.

    This man is clearly captivated by the girl’s booty, and the comparison between this event and Bill Clinton’s exploits is not only valid, but is fair.

    Those of us who are Conservatives respect women and repudiate Democrat’s habitual demeaning and victimization of women by Democrat beasts just as readily as we do similar behavior by Republicans.

    All I know, is that this is a clear indication that Clintonesque female issues may well be an ingredient in the enigma of the Obama fraud… only now we have the added issue of “preferring children.”

    P.S. As a Conservative that respects women, I am quite disappointed that you have chosen to give O-bum-a a pass on what is an obvious demonstration of “issues” that – until now – have been kept out of the public mix.

    Another P.S. It’s amazing that one commenter thinks that this was actually a staged event designed to distract Americans from the more weighty issues of Obama’s apologies and betrayals of the USA in yet another foreign forum. What’s equally amazing is that *so much of Obama is staged* that we almost automatically consider such a scenario to be plausible.

    From the view that he had how could he tell how old she was? I hate defending Obama, but the “preferring children” charge related to this non-issue is way over the top.
