Good for him. What has he done for his familial brother? He still living in a shack? How about auntie in Boston? Still in a slum?

Do all you want for the cameras, Hussein.

You ain’t foolin’ me.

Look at this! Some person is bowing down to Obamalama. How disgusting. The comments on the article at the ChiTrib say things like.."Bush never handed out food, he came from wealth and privilege..." I want to vomit, look at those folks all yukking it up as the ONE ACCEPTS the adulation... I puke on Obama.

Hey, Zero? I hand out food, paint Habitat homes, started a charity where, every year, we raise $$$ at Christmas for the needy in our community to pay for heating. It’s not just for political expediency and not ‘just for Christmas’, you know. It’s YEAR ROUND.

Bush gave out food in a war zone more than once.

He and his family also worked handing out food elsewhere.

I don't know who the woman or man is blowing Obama in that picture is, but knowing Obama as we do, could be he places and dummy in clothes there for a photo op.

You notice the article doesn’t say he paid for the food? You and I know he was just there for the photo opp., and had NOTHING to do with the charity at all.

Exactly. Just how is it "giving back," and teaching your daughters how "fortunate they are," if you just show up and hand out food that SOMEONE ELSE donated or paid for? But then, that is how the socialist thinks, ... take something that someone else provided, and give it to someone else, and take credit for it.

I guess he’s just getting the subjects used to the way things will be from now on under his economic plan.

Gus Savage,the racist bastard who used to be the congressman in that district handed out canned hams to the voters there. 'Twas ever thus.

If Obama hands out food and no cameras record the event, does it still count?

LOL!! They probably had dinner with Oprah. Handing out the chicken sounds like something Oprah told them to do. Great photo op, makes them feel good about themselves, people get free chicken. Everybody wins.....

I am just wondering if the reporter heard Obambi right when he was answering a question and he actually said ... “hey give me a break we are just do’in the down home thing for the cameras ... hey I’ll call you Back!
