Seal of Disapproval?

Does Olbermann owe me $2 for being the first? Darn, it looks like ZIP beat me to it.
By the way, this was from the same speech where Obama said more companies need to extend paid leave and make work hours more flexible, because that will in turn increase productivity and decrease absenteeism. I suppose if there’s no such thing as being “absent” from work then it would stand to reason that absenteeism would decrease.
Somebody please tell the president that the guy who normally secures the seal to the podium is on paid leave, and his backup was given the week off to take his cat to the vet.

The Seal Hanger will get written up for embarrasing The One as well as for not properly training the backup person. And then fired. And then will get 99 weeks of unemployment.
All this after returning from (paid?) leave.
Harbinger of things to come.
My work hours are very flexible… my hours worked per week keep getting longer and longer because we can’t hire resources to take some of the work load off.
There is a grain of truth here. Give congress an extended leave come November and America, I believe, would become more productive.
Is that off-scripted candor for real? Is it just me, or does D’oh!bamma have the personality of a wet fart?
Two theories.
1: Even the Presidential Seal doesn’t want to be seen with him.
2: It’s the ghosts of Presidents past like George Washington, Abe Lincoln, and Ronald Reagan.
What does the seal know, and when did it know it? (Arf! Arf!)
Haah haah haah! Math… Science… Engineering… (klunk)! …”excellence”…
More B-grade than the Knoxville Greyhound station!
So are we going to hear from the President as to whom’s a$$ he is going to kick for this one?
Let me fix that last one:
So are we going to hear from the President as to
whom’swhose a$$ he is going to kick?I really need my coffee.
Spaeking of Obama and jobs. The unemploment numbers are out and the private sector, wait for it, unexpectedly shed another 39,000 jobs in Septemeber.
Just like the Old Man of the Mountain here in NH. They had seen enough and could not take another minute of it.
I’ll agree with the present-dunce this one time: it IS a sign from God….
Call me a pessimist, but I expected it all along.
“See how bad our education system has gotten?”
“…and they should be…”
Best comment from over at Weasel Zippers:
The idiot is still there.
Obowmao: “somebody back there must be sweating bullets, don’t you think?”
Is that code for “Buckwheats”?
Hard to hang a real presidentual seal on a fake president, the truth has a way of breaking through.
Even the Presidential Seal is trying to run away from the Sock Puppet – dire days indeed.
Errah He’ll have to report the seal hanger ineptitude to the shop steward and then he’ll decide if he needs to write him up and refer him to the board for disciplinary action. Should have it resolved by 2019.
oops remember demoncraps don’t believe in God…this is karma (evil grin)
He made the comment about somebody “sweating bullets,” and I had visions of the scene in the movie “The Untouchables” – and the barber who accidentally nicked DeNiro while giving him a shave.
Teddy: The poor schlep who hung the sign will claim he was discriminated against because he was given the assignment when he hadn’t had sufficient time off (36 hours for every 8 hours of labor, not counting breaks for smokes and adult beverages). Heck, this stooge will likely BE the shop steward next week when they get through processing his grievances against the union!
OT, how is the weather down there?
I’m surprised he didn’t say
‘it doesn’t matter that the seal fell off–I still won.’
And he thinks it’s funny. It isn’t.
even the seal knows the wh joke is a fraud. surprised the seal didn’t roll out of the building into storage until a real president is elected.
I love it when he loses his place on the TOTUS and says, “Where were we?” He is truly lost and looks like a deer in the headlights.
The sign hanger may be in a little trouble, but whoever let the TOTUS scroll on while Duh Wun had his moment of fun will be getting 99 weeks of unemployment!
It’s difficult to laugh with people that you despise, however, it was funny, and being a clown, Obambi handled it well.
There is a God…………
It’s all about Obama. The seal falls off and, instead of making fun of himself, he goes on and on about the “other” people who are “nervous” and the people who are “sweating bullets” because his seal fell off the podium. He is so full of himself, his cup runneth over with vanity. Take a hint Barack, even the planet earth is trying to tell you something.
I was half expecting to see the Obama seal put in place.
You all know who I am.
Papers please, Barry?
I wouldn’t stand next to him during outdoor speeches.
Just sayin’.
The wheels are coming off Obama’s bus and the seals are coming off the podiums. He actually should thank the person who goofed up. It was a good ad lib come-back for Obama, and he doesn’t get many of those!! If only he didn’t go on and on and on about how much the person who was responsbile must be shaking in his/her boots. Being afraid of the POTUS didn’t used to be part of the picture. Why would he make such a big deal about how incredibly scared that person behind the curtain must be? Mr. Odumbo…I’m not afraid of you. You, however, should be very afraid of me! I am a CONSERVATIVE CHRISTIAN. Be afraid.
Maybe this is why he has such a penchant for being AWOL on vacation. He actually thinks it is making him productive. At his best Barack Obama is the most lazy and ineffective President in history, at his worst he is the most destructive.
LOL. Good one.
The airplane that crashed in Alaska and killed Senator Ted Stevens this summer was being flown by a “relief” pilot during extremely difficult flying conditions.
Employers need reliable employees. Got that?
So the 1.5 trillion dollar deficits are deliberate, Joe? Thought so.
It’s hilarious when they let Joe out in public. He’s like your two year old who will say anything and not understand why everyone laughs. Joe is a joke but he’s in great company with Obowmao and company.
I saw that clip with Joe Biden in Minneapolis yesterday. Behind him stood Mark Dayton, the absolute worst choice for Governor of Minnesota we have EVER had! So, of course, he will win. Minnesota is so screwed.
If you listen closely, you can hear the seal saying: “Run Away! Run Away!”
I had thought it was impossible to screw yourself until I saw Minnesota elect Al Frankin to the senate.
I think either this was O’Donnell witchcraft or one of the signs of the Apocalypse.
Al Franken, Mark Dayton, Walter Mondale, Jesse Ventura, Garrison Keillor, Keith Ellison…sigh. This is a beautiful state. We have great weather, incredible Fall beauty right now. Our lakes are the best in the country. Lake living in the summer is heaven on earth. Yet, somehow, the state is full of raving moonbats with no clue. I am the only conservative in my entire neighborhood! Nice neighbors, but if you ask me to encourage them to vote…forget about it!
Now…about the weather. Today is going to be about 70 degrees, sunny, and the leaves are red, gold, flaming beauties! Hubby and I will be taking a road rip today to snap some pictures, have lunch somewhere on the road and really soak up this gift from God!!
Doug, I’m surprised you missed the big story about Sheriff Joe Biden threatening any Republican who brings up balancing the budget with a Saudi gay sex procedure involving strangulation.
I think there is biting involved too.
What an arrogant, pompous, no personality a$$ he is. I can’t bring myself to call him the president…never will.
On MM buzzworthy=OMEN, the last line in the post is good “So, which of the Seven Seals in the Book of Revelations is this?”
L
Absenteeism…as in, the seal is absent? The seal called in sick? Sudden onset of guilt? Paid leave?
Naturally, OlberEichmann couldn’t let the chance go by to make one more ridiculous comment about conservatives…”[They'll say] it’s a sign from God.” No Keithy, it’s a sign of the universal incompetence of his staff.

Maybe the falling seal is portent for the election tsunami coming on November 2. Like the Biblical handwriting on the wall during the Babylonian orgy the night before the enemy attacked the palace and ended the king’s evil reign.

The same message rings true–YOU HAVE BEEN JUDGED AND HAVE BEEN FOUND WANTING! Bye, Comrade–incoming!

TOTUS dared the Seal and they both thought it was pretty funny.
If I were superstitious, I might believe the seal falling portends an inauspicious fate for POTUS.
There might be something like that in a lost book of Nostradamus:
“When Saturn is in the sign of the donkey,
The Indonesian will have reason to fear the honky.”
Good one, but it was more like “HELP ME!! HELP ME!!”
rocketman #48, good point!
I was thinking as I watched the vid, “I’d rather keep the seal and lose the guy behind the podium.”
I hit the mute button as soon as I see Obeyme’s mug, but for some reason, this time I didn’t….the KATHUNK of the seal hitting the floor was the best speech he ever gave. I was hoping someone with a camera quickly shot the seal rolling away…well, can’t have everything. As for the union worker that installed it initially, as Trump says, “you’re fired for embarassing The One, union or not.”
Just like that seal so goes his presidency!
The timing couldn’t have been more perfect. Just as he was saying “We can not sustain…” KLUNK
How many Obama lawyers does it take to screw a presidential seal to a podium?
It has to be a sign from God, Obama just got finished mentioning ‘especially in fields like science technology engineering and math – we cannot sustain’… (thunk) …
That’s right, without those types of people we cannot even secure a symbol of your presidency let alone sustain this nation. Our country with its technological advances and military strength was built by those fields not intellectual lawyers like you, (and certainly not by talking heads with degrees in communication from those ‘ivy league’ agricultural schools). Obama doesn’t have the slightest clue what those fields are about and neither does Congress because almost nobody from those fields DARES to run for office.
So why don’t they? Because they were taught how to actually create real things from reality not just ‘hope’ for them or litigate them into existence. They are grounded by what is fact so they are not comfortable making promises they know they cannot keep; something lawyers like Obama and his ilk are more than happy to do.
