Obama is in decent shape but he is not skinny - he needs to stop lying to himself and us that he is. He's got a good 15-18 perecent body fat - healthy, not skinny!

[Daddysgirl]

He never said to you or anyone else that he was skinny. Healthy is what hia doctors said after his annual physical. It's the likes of you who make people anorexic by telling them they are too fat when they are in fact not. I bet you are not in "decent shape" yourself!

[Yovovi]

Get your facts straight -- he has said it multiple times -e.g., see his his DNC speech, hiss stump speeches, his first book, etc. Pick your batteles girl. This is so trivial!

[Robed]

Body fat as a presidential qualification?

We are truly screwed!

WOW! GOD BLESS AMERICA!!

[NyPrincess]

I like it!!! More please :-)

With all the indignation directed towards China about its occupation of Tibet how come there's no mention at HP about our occupation of Hawaii and today's protests calling for its independence?

But, the guy sure can body surf.

[mick7191]

Time to move, dude. This country would not exist without conquest.

[mick7191]

Sorry, but it's true.

[mick7191]

What?????? Free Indianapolis!!!!

[mick7191]

And the Black Hills.

Here we have a real human being, a genuine person, someone who has fun, not a robot, not a sock-puppet, not a clueless zombie.

What a MAN!

[lioness39]

What a very cool guy - from his appearance, to his intense intelligence and the sports he likes. Even his IPod selections are hot. If he makes it to the White House, he will be one of our most fascinating presidents.

[Robed]

He'd make a great lifeguard. Maybe he should apply for that job?

[tgood]

Looking GOOD Brother BO! I see the "Tr0ll Brigade" of the usual Repug morons and PUMA pukes (almost know them by name now) are already out to mock his pictures with drive-by comments and player-hating. Hey tr0lls, don't be hatin' because the man is eloquent, very intelligent, very articulate, rational, logical, is well liked around the world, looks good, looks fit and healthy...and actually has a winning personality.

Obama for 2008
Go BO!

Good to see he has his priorities straight. His elitism will be his downfall.

[KiwisCanFly]

Playing in the sea isn't elitism. This has to be the dorkiest comment I have ever read on here and there have been some doozies. U need to chill out and get yr feet sandy and play a little in the water. Get smacked hard by a wave and regain some balance in yr perspective.

Nice to see BHO relaxing, he's been hard at work for a long time and needed a bit of RnR with his family.

[Chubbster]

Body surfing is the least elite of local Hawaiian sports.

"It's like these guys take pride in being ignorant!"

Obama said it best. The sillyness of parroting what someone has spoon feed you is ignorant. Look at the facts and compair the candidates and it become OBVIOUS who is elite. Family ties, background, marrying money. If you don't like or don't want to vote for, or think Obama is not qualified, fine. But, get of the "elite" stupidity.

[littleblackcat]

The place where Obama is absolutely "elite" in the very best sense of the word is that he favors his family first and makes no bones about his displeasure at anyone attacking his wife. He seems to be straightforward and aboveboard about his love and friendship toward his wife, and his honor for his marriage vows. Now THIS is "elite"!
Outside of that, how is paying off your student loans over 17 years "elite"?
How is the good sense to eat healthy food "elite"? I make a few dollars per year over the poverty level for one person and arugula is a regular in my salad bowl.
How is growing up in a one-parent home "elite"?
How is having that one parent not being able to take care of her child and having to leave him in the (admittedly competent and loving) care of his grandparents "elite"?
The only other thing that smacks of being "elite" about Barack Obama is his INTELLIGENCE!!!
I for one celebrate this, because I have cringed everytime bushit opens his stupid mouth and anew slaughters the American language!

[wanttruth]

Awesome post, littleblackcat. I totally agree Sen. Obama continues to conduct himself with poise and intelligence throughout this election.

[Citizen08]

Well said!

"I have cringed everytime "Bushit" opens his stupid mouth and anew slaughters the American language!"

Brilliant!

I wish I would've thought of "bushit" I'll be using that from now on!

[johjac]

Wow! Great post!

It's OK. You don't have to use the word "elitism" anymore.
"Uppity" is what you really mean - and since the MSM has admitted it's a synonym but continues to use the term anyway, feel perfectly comfortable in joining them in their racism.
Anyway, the word "elitism" is so... elite.
Some people might think you're talking about the Republican candidate.
