Buchanan: Never Seen A Prez In Shirtsleeves In Oval Office Before
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 01/22/2009 8:34:40 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Pat Buchanan has seen many a president move through the Oval Office, but never one dressed the way Pres. Obama was yesterday. On today’s Morning Joe, Buchanan reacted to a photo on the front page of the Wall Street Journal.

MIKA BRZEZINSKI: Pat, you took note of the front page of the Wall Street Journal. Something doesn’t seem right to you.

JOE SCARBOROUGH: Pat, you’re a little concerned.

BRZEZINSKI: He’s very concerned. Pat, I’m going to hold it up.

PAT BUCHANAN: I’m surprised.

BRZEZINSKI: You’re surprised?

BUCHANAN: Yeah. In the Oval Office, the President of the United States. I have never seen a president in shirtsleeves in the Oval Office.

” ...Deaver himself tried to convince Reagan to remove his jacket in the Oval Office on a hot summer day...”

What? The a/c in the White House doesn’t work?

Obama has NO respect for the office but he knows how to USE the office to advance his socialist adventure!

Clinton has several photos of him with various groups in less than business attire. But, as far as I know, Clinton never worked in shirtsleeves while actually working in the Oval Office.

Man, how sad is that when Clinton had more respect for the Office than our current President does.

I’m pretty sure that Clinton did it.

This is nothing. Just wait until he wears his gym clothes to work.

Look for The One to sport a red Chicago Bulls tanktop and Gangster Disciple headgear in the Oval Office sometime soon.

I don’t agree with the man’s political philosophy or the “solutions” that he will be bringing to the country...

But you guys come across as petty and childish attacking him for not wearing his suit jacket while he is working.

There was one without pants, so this is a step up.

His first two days in office are focused on:
