It's Saturday night...Obama is headed for the room in the WH he has renamed the "Rest Area" or "Man's Country" Room.

He's sticking his fist down something...but it ain't a catfish.

It’ll probably get pulled just like the Cthulu codpiece pic did but I’d do it all over again.

There are some dangerous “rest areas” in this country.

When do the attack dogs come after Ryan’s wife? Sooner rather than later I’d guess
