[Yurdelite]

I think it says Dream BIG Dreams...

[george389]

i love the picture with our president looking at the map. finally a president who is interested in the world!!

[uberliberal]

He's looking for Israel.

[lilcho]

Are you sure Obama didn't write "Dream big dreams" and just has crappy handwriting?

[Sleepwalkr]

Absolutely! I hope HP makes a correction soon.

[Xenussister]

You know, I actually like Bush's carpet. I like the look of it, I do think it's classy-looking, and now finally has a classy president to walk on it, which reminds me that I also like the fact that it's gotta drive certain segments insane to see President Barack Hussein Obama walk on it. I hope he never changes it, for the rest of this and his next term.

Listen to this awe-inspiring rant against the right-wing!

"Dream big dreams", not "Dream hip dreams."

[JePense]

I was going to point out the same thing!

hip went out of use before around the time Obama was born -- it's beatnik jargon!

[shrimpdip]

Ditto here. Apparently HuffPo's caption writers can't read! Wonder if they'll bother to fix it.

[truji999]

well, in their defense that certainly does not look like a g in the word big, it does look more like hip.

[EmeraldWorld]

Nice photos! (Except for the ones with Geithner and Nancy Reagan in them.)

[opprobrious]

So you're so politically biased you let it seep into your judgement of the quality of a photograph? Obama doesn't seem to have a problem with either.

[hoosier96]

Oh, the first one is priceless. It's obvious Messina is asking the age old question "Who broke wind?".

Of course, honest Emanuel cannot tell a lie.

[hoosier96]

Did you see how Obama made the football float in mid-air? He is the messiah.

[TomTheAlmostUgly]

"Did you see how Obama made the football float in mid-air? He is the messiah."

So what does that make the Repubs who crucify him?

[Dawgnme]

Nice!

[hoosier96]

Bo is a Portugese water dog, but doesn't know how to swim. Much like the guy who donated him, Ted Kennedy.

10 bucks says Bo has a higher approval rating than Obama within the next month.

[jchastn]

Bo is a dog. He has a guaranteed 99% approval rating built in because of his doggy eyes. That is guaranteed to never drop below 78% even if he pees on the carpet or chews your fave shoes.

[TomTheAlmostUgly]

We won. You lost. Get over it.

[tralfas]

It is still America. Free speech. Get over it.

[hoosier96]

Is it just me or does Geithner always have that "caught in the act" look on his face. It's as if he's thinking, "Well, they found out about might tax evasion but at least they didn't find the bodies buried in the basement."

[bizzybea]

LOL so funny I think so TOO : )

[rsprags]

Love Timothy; leave him along! Timothy handle our financial business and do not listen to the fiscially misinformed!

[hoosier96]

I love the one of him staring at the map.

"Well I'll be! There are only 50 states. Now where was Iran again?"

[TomTheAlmostUgly]

You're thinking of The Special Neocon Map, which has Iraq marked as the 51st state.

[Nabipoursikami2]

I'm glad he's looking at a map. Maybe he'll finally learn Africa is a CONTINENT, not a COUNTRY.

[anastomosis]

That was Palin, you creep. As you full well know.

[LiberalForever]

I am REALLY proud of my President. Any rude, disparaging remarks don't change that in the least.

[hoosier96]

We're just having a little fun. Come on, relax.

[opprobrious]

You're idea of fun is rather pathetic, hatebag.

[3Dubyadot]

I like the lead photo, the caption should read, " now where is the U S in this picture and how can I change it". He may not even recognize this as being a map of the world.
