LOVE these photos Vitupe! Great to see this wonderful man relaxed and being himself.
Is it my forgetfulness or are the Obamas the first First Couple in our lifetime to use money to buy things for themselves? I can’t recall a single instance when previous presidents entered stores, shopped openly, and then PAID for things. Too many follow the British Royal Tradition of never having money on them and never buying things themselves. The reason I think this is important (though not very) is that I do think that tends to keep them in touch with what ordinary people experience.
What a decent and personable man is our Prez. I really like him!
Great one Vit. I love when the right wing bets against the president. They always lose because he keenly knows Sun Tzu’s strategies and tactics from “The Art of War”.
I found the photo at Yahoo news this morning. It was taken during his recent trip to Iowa. The picture has him in a bookstore shopping for books for his daughters. Not a PS.
Added a better photo and link to gallery of his trip (above in the post).
The thought of eternal suffering is a significant motivator for those who are strong in their religious beliefs. It is also conducive to those who push various religious doctrines on their congregants to keep them in line.

His open smile says it all and a picture is worth a thousand words. Love it!!
That’s what they call a “thousand watt smile.”
That’s a great picture, it made me laugh with him. Thanks.
Welcome (back?), ToasterLeavins!
Good to see your moniker again. It gave me a good chuckle too. All the right wing losers amaze me with how they cash in on the hatred.

Oh WOW! When was that taken, Vitup? Priceless! And it’s not Photoshopped, right?
