Bush Making Big Return To White House
Annette Insdorf: The Central Park Five Premieres in Cannes
I had just settled onto my bar stool Friday evening at a Silver Spring, Md., watering hole when my buddy says from across the table "Did you see that Obama got busted?"
I knew he wasn't drunk - yet - and I hadn't seen anything on the news that day so I asked what he was talking about.
"Obama got busted checking out some chick on his trip," he said. "It was like the Clinton days. He was checking her out HAAAARD!" ...
I thought the same thing when I later checked out the now infamous photo of Obama "looking" at Mayara Tavares, a pretty young aide from Rio de Janiero working at the G8 Summit in Italy last week.
I have to admit, the photo looks like Obama reverted to his clubbing days on Chicago's south side as he appears to twist his neck to check out the backside of the thin-but-shapely 16-year old.
But lets go to the video tape.
It seems to show Obama looking not so much at her butt but focused on not falling down as he and the other world leaders prepare for a group photo.
The best part of the video is the reaction of French President Nicolas Sarkozy. He's checking her out so hard, he looks like he could sop her up with biscuit, as the old folks used to say.

+ Hey Barack, What Would Michelle Say?
+ Mayara Tavares is 16 Years Old!

Today is another day this is old jargon just as the two other stories that are replaced with something else, it's beginning to look like a smear tactic, go figure. Tell me something that's worth listening to, something interesting like a decrease in gas prices and or job losses. Gossip is not news it's garbage put it in bag and set it out for proper disposal.

I was always told that "A WOMAN IS AS OLD AS SHE LOOK AND A MAN IS NOT OLD UNTILL HE STOP LOOKING." Now what is the problem?

Hey, Keep your eyes on the VOTING for the healthcare plan. GET THAT DONE! Don't worry about his eyes, they belong to him. This plan will help the country and it's underserved, if the pharmecuetical reps would stop lobbying against it!
This helathcare system is just another Bernie Maydoff jackup of american!
