Handlers go to great lengths to manage the settings President Obama appears in, from lighting to yes, even insect repelling. For example, they doused a Camp David podium with bug spray last year before a G-8 announcement.
But there have been moments, several in fact, when insects have bedeviled their best efforts.
As the president announced his nominees to lead the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Thursday, a fly noticeably buzzed around the commander-in-chief, distracting him to the point of his noting, "This guy's bothering me."

I used to woprk with a guy we called “The Fly”, because everything he touched turned to sh*t.
Sounds like a good nickname for our Muslim Resident.

obozo needs to keep his wife Moochie a little closer, the flies would likely be more attracted to her. As well, with as much crap that spews from the obozo's lips it's a wonder the fly didn't land in his mouth.

Perhaps the fly was thinking, ‘if I had a son, he would look just like that...maggot’.

The flies are attracted to Obama’s lips, because of the sceent left behind on his mouth after all of that digging around inside of his nose and nostrils.

Just curious, how many presidents in the last 160 years of the US have has EVEN one fly resting on his face picture, must less TWO!
It would appear the Entertainment-industrial complex has been covering up this fly on presidents “complex” for the 16 decades until ob-amass became president.

“Beelzebub, literally “Lord of the Flies”; is a Semitic deity that was worshiped in the Philistine city of Ekron. In later Christian and Biblical sources, he is referred to as another name for Satan,[2] and in demonology, is one of the seven princes of Hell.”

Remember the fly that kept circling his head and the famous picture of it sitting on his lip? (and it didnt bother him at all!)
Remember during an interview a fly kept buzzing around Obama and he killed it with his bare hand and just kept on talking? (gag)
Remember the rat that kept running in front of him at the podium, bee swarms and racoons invading the White House grounds?
WTH is going on here? This does not happen with other presidents.

Did any flies ever land on W during a press conference?
To: ColdOne
The media has been all over this non-story today. Now that the re-election of BO is over, they are trying to regain a shred of credibility, which they pretty much all lost during the last few years, with a significant portion of the country. This must be their idea of “hey look, we’re fair and balanced.”
