Obama Motorcade Gets The Finger
White House Dossier ^ | 5/18/14 | Keith Koffler

Posted on 05/19/2014 5:37:19 PM PDT by Nachum

A motorist driving along I-66 in Washington gave President Obama’s motorcade the finger Saturday. It’s unclear if the president gave the driver the finger right back.

Rumors that the driver was Solange Knowles could not be confirmed.

From the White House pool report:

Poolster observed one motorist on I-66 from DC extend his middle finger at the motorcade, but unable to tell if said motorist knew who was in the motorcade, or just didn’t like being passed.

Well, I assure you, anyone if the Washington area with a car knows who is generally in a big motorcade. Unless it was a foreign visitor unfamiliar with American hand language trying to tell Obama, You’re number one!

Obama was on his way to play golf, this time, atypically for his Washington outings, at a private club.

Presidential motorcade arrived 10:40 am at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Club in Gainesville, Va, an exclusive course that’s hosted four President’s Cups.

Pool got no eyes on POTUS. Informed by WH staff that his golfing partners today include former Dallas Mayor and U.S. Trade Rep. Ron Kirk.

Also golfing with POTUS is Milton Carroll, chairman of CenterPoint Energy, a public utility company based in Houston, Texas.

Third partner identified as Joe O’Neill.

Kirk, as you may know, if famous for being the USTR who failed to start and complete a single trade deal during his four years on the job.

It was Obama’s 13th time playing this year and the 170th outing as president.

Protected speech,and only fair since zero has been America the finger for five years. I’m sure this one of our First Amendment rights the dems would like to curb.

I did this in 2008 when he was campaigning and saw his bus coming up the highway.

Clintoon used to get traffic stopped regularly back in the day. I’m sure there were others who gave him the Jail-to-the-Chief salute.

"Obama was on his way to play golf..."

He has reportedly played more than 160 rounds since he become President.

This is just one of millions that could be the guilty party.

It is kind of a reflex reaction. You see Obama and your finger goes wild.

I think of him more of the number 2 sort. It's more of a fecal kind of gesture.

At my health club where I work out on the elliptical several times weekly, the Japanese patrons are quite used to me giving him the middle finger salute any time he shows up on the tube. A couple geezers have been joining me.

Bet this happens a lot. As in a continuous chain of salutes every time that motorcade goes anywhere besides some gated community or other Obamahood.

Real news would be when he *isn’t* being flipped off.
