President Dad strikes again. Years on from the infamous terrorist fist-jab, Barack Obama has elaborated on his trademark bump, but in the most fatherly way possible, overusing the explosion maneuver like an old joke at the dinner table. Today, he deployed the trick on an unsuspecting White House guest, as he's made a habit of doing recently. Here he is at the State of the Union, pulling the same move with Republican Senator Mark Kirk, who at least knows what he's doing. It appears they may have practiced:
And from January, during a White House tour, Obama tries it out on a kid who could only struggle to keep up:
The surprise explosion: one step above "got your nose" or "pull my finger."
Obama was raised upperclass white.
Awesome find.
I could be wrong, but I don’t think this is an “in” thing anymore. I haven’t seen anyone do this in at least three years. Then again, I spend my days going to work, and my weekends with my family.
When people do the fist bump, I grab their fist and shake it like I am shaking hands. It freaks them out.
It is not ‘black’ gang sign because Obama is not ‘black’. I believe Obama is ‘dark’ skinned like many persons all over the world including myself, not as dark usually but just as dark as a youth and serving in the Pacific in WWII. You can find ‘dark skin’ people all over the world including South Asia especially Indonesia and that is where I believe Obama’s bloodline began.
You can tell a lot about a person by their handshake —a “fist bump” gets around that.
It is the hand shake by a person who merits little trust and who places great store in the vagaries of pop culture —a PERFECT description of BHO.
