Obama stops for snow cones

Noting he grew up in Hawaii, where shave ice is king, he applauded the work of owner Steven Holt and his staff. "This is a finely shaved ice," he said.

The president also prodded White House press secretary Jay Carney to order something. "This is our champion eater right here," Obama said of Carney, who ordered a $3 medium Rock N' Roll -- grape, blueberry and blue raspberry. Trip director Marvin Nicholson ordered the same, as did Obama campaign press secretary Jen Psaki. In all, the bill totaled $14.98, which the president paid with cash.

Just think what $14.98 could do for a slum dweller in Nairobi.

When Michelle get through with the snow cone business all you’ll be able to get is the shaved ice, no flavorings.

CAPTION PING:

[Rastus]

If I had a stand, he’d best heed the old, “Don’t eat the yellow snow” admonition.

[Fresh Wind]

That syrup on the snow cones is LOADED with sugar. Mayor Bloomberg should arrest him.

It's the guy from Lloyds Lunchbox

[BerryDingle]

Hi, I'm Larry the Lawn Guy, how come you didn't spread the wealth and buy us a snow cone?

[Old Sarge]

"Alright, who put up the '1984' poster? The proles aren't supposed to know about that yet!"

[BerryDingle]

You know a guy named Anthony Weiner? You look familiar.

[Old Sarge]

"See that snow cone, Odinga? The guy at the window built that!"

[Old Sarge]

"Can't anyone answer a simple question? I asked if these snowcones were halal..."

[Proud2BeRight]

Did he tell the Tropical Sno owner, “you didn’t build this”?

[SparkyBass]

"Weird colors!?! I'll have a 'Bolshevik RED!'"

"MMMM! Tastes like Socialism!"

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Now that we know he’s loaded, maybe he can reach deeper into that wallet and cough up the $35k he owes Newport Beach for police protection during his February fundraiser in Corona del Mar.

Is that why he is asking for $3 donations in his e-mails?

What kind of a fruity little dude eats snow cones? It sounds like something a little girl would eat. Gawd. Are you sure this skinny little prick isn’t just a little light in his loafers. What next, flip flops?

[RummyChick]

That picture smacks of desperation.

It’s what an early 2008 campaign when no one knew Obama would have looked like.

He is in serious trouble.

Where’s the crowd?

[twister881]

Campaign appearance at a lunch shack, with no swooning females & paramedics to the rescue. Bathhouse Barry and Plugs are going to have to subpoena their fellow Socialist ‘Rats to get them to their rallies.

Somebody do an animated GIF of O's gay dancing, post it here (thanks!), then use it as part of a self-supporting through viewer donations banner ad campaign (pennies per thousands of impressions) that will inspire the Dem leaning independents to vote against O. (This will achieve what apparently Romney can't achieve thanks to his dissing of Chick Fil A.)
