Don’t flies land, breed and party in excrement? That explains a lot.

What I don’t understand is that the pic on Drudge has the fly over on Obama’s cheek...the one on AP has it right above his lip....so the fly was there long enough to change position—are you telling me he just allowed that fly to walk around on his face?

Maybe he is lord of the Flies.

Weird. Exactly a year ago:

June 17, 2009

“Obama Could Hurt a Fly”

“It would seem that President Obama’s aim isn’t too bad — especially when it comes to swatting flies, real ones.

During an interview on Thursday afternoon with John Harwood for CNBC and The Times, an extremely pesky fly kept buzzing about. Mr. Obama reached out and slapped it down. “I got it,” Mr. Obama exclaimed. “I got the sucker...””

Hey Lucky9teen,

I don’t know how to post pictures. Can you post the picture from this site? I think it’s relevant to the topic:

I hope that trained professional experts were close by to give that fly proper medical attention. In this day and age, you just don’t know what that poor fly was exposed to.

Flies sure tend to be attracted to O. Remember in one of his interviews early in his presidency, he swatted a fly away from him. Ugghhh!

This isn't the first fly...

President swats fly during TV interview [Video]
Obama was being quizzed by CNBC TV correspondent John Harwood when the fly made an ill-advised beeline for the presidential brow.

The most powerful man in the world warned: "Get out of here."

But the creature, as if driven by the mother of all death wishes, carried on bugging its VIP target.

Obama did not flap but bided his time.

And when the fly landed on his left hand, he smacked it dead with the other.

Then he turned coolly to Harwood and said: "Now, where were we?" The reaction told Obama he should acknowledge the fly's fate.

A cowboy from Texas attends a social function where Barack Obama is trying to gather support for his Cap and Trade Plan. Once he discovers the cowboy is from President Bush's home area, he starts to belittle him by talking in a southern drawl and single syllable words.

As he was doing that, he kept swatting at some flies that were buzzing around his head. The cowboy says, "Y'all havin' some problem with them circle flies?"

Obama stopped talking and said, "Well, yes, if that's what they're called, but I've never heard of circle flies."

"Well, sir," the cowboy replies, "Circle flies hang around ranches. They're called circle flies because they're almost always found circling around the back end of a horse."

"Oh," Obama replies as he goes back to rambling. But, a moment later he stops and bluntly asks, "Are you calling me a horse's ass?"

"No, sir," the cowboy replies, "I have too much respect for the citizens of this country to call their president a horse's ass."

"That's a good thing," Obama responds and begins rambling on once more.

After a long pause, the cowboy, in his best Texas drawl says, "Hard to fool them flies, though."
