It is indeed, but I’ll wait until after the Coronation to go back, though I doubt he’ll step foot in there again. Look how daintily, tentatively, he’s nibbling. He knew he had to put in an appearance at Ben’s or every black in town would be insulted, but he’s got no more to do with chili than Ter-AY-za did.

"Is that arugula I see over there?"

[Lucky9teen]

I thought the campaign was over.

Look who put in an appearance at Ben’s.

[Red in Blue PA]

Baby thinking: "Did he just call me a mistake?"

[BookmanTheJanitor]

He sure does point a lot.

"I like the halfsmoke, split and fried, with onions, chili & cheese. "

Ben’s onions are grilled in big slices, and is that MUSTARD? Heresy. If you ever do come up to DC, it’s on the Green Line. I think the stop is UDC.

In four of the above pictures that Obama guy is pointing. How ignorant he is. He must have learned that arrogant pointing from Bill Clinton. And what long, skinny fingers he has, ugh!

[Ol' Sox]

He's got that John Kerry pointy-finger thing going on.

Why do Democrats always point their fingers like that? I was always taught it was impolite to point.

[CitizenM]

Make that FIVE times he is pointing.

[ETL]

Yuch!!

>>>>Who are these goons<<<<<<

Goons for a repub or goons for a rat.... makes no difference. They’ll put a hurtin on you right quick.

I SO agree. She’s a dolly. I’d be smooching on her myself — BEFORE the chili and onions! I’m always happiest around my own age group. ;-)

“Whose going to pay for all my social and bailout programs? You are! Yes you are” (with pic of baby)

The epitome of accuracy!

[ropin71]

Woooo that Chili just went right through you litle girl!

[ArrogantBustard]

I'll confess to being totally unaware of "Ben's".

I can't think of anything nice to say about Zero.

Nothing at all.

I look at him, and I see dead babies.

Mr Trooprally and I had dinner there before we Freeped Bill Ayers a month or so ago.

Local tv station here in DC lead this story with comment “President-elect Obama does his part to stimulate the economy.”

My comment, oh wow, he spend a couple of bucks on a bowl of chili and that is to “stimulate the economy” Why don’t they explain how much more of a stimulus to the economy he is making by getting a room in the Hay-Adams hotel for 2 weeks instead of free-loading on the taxpayer by asking for early lodging in Blair House.
