It looks like President Obama hasn't gotten acquainted to his White House surroundings. On the way back to the Oval Office Tuesday, the President approached a paned window, instead of the actual door -- located a few feet to his right.

Doors didn't open automatically for Obama?s predecessor either. While making a hasty exit from a 2005 press conference in Beijing, former President George W. Bush tugged on the handles of a door, only to find it locked.

Bush laughed off the blunder, but the pictures still live on as part of Bush's lame duck legacy. However, there was little note taken of Obama's rookie mistake.

Obama, who was returning from meeting with Congressional leaders, may have been distracted by Republicans' icy reception to his $825 billion stimulus package, which is poised to pass on Wednesday even without a groundswell of Republican support.



Not surprising to see the radically different coverage of the two men. It was that way from the start in 2001.

Uh.... if this was Bush there would already be 95 posts calling him a clown. You're a clown.

The photo of Obama is akin to a grainy paparazzi photo of an instance when Angelina Jolie farts in her hand and smells it in her backyard.

The photo of GWB is akin to Angelina Jolie farting in her hand and smelling it while accepting an award.

Bam? That's really tacky.

BTW the Oval Office has something like eight doors, most of them semi-concealed and is pretty confusing. Visitors get a specific briefing on where the door to use is, but still some of them wind up in the President's private sections.

Its clear folks, Obama is being held prisoner in a Chinese fortune cookie factory. Look for further cries for help at your nearest Chinese restaurant. All dressed up and no place to go.

Silly Obama, you could have let McCain be the prisoner. Be careful of what you wish for.

I made it through every door yesterday without any problems.


Did you?
Yep but I've been known to walk through screen doors of unfamiliar homes in my younger days.

With Bush you got the feeling that you were at least as intelligent as him, with Obama you know he's smarter than any of this. The Buffoon tag just doesn't play with him.

He hasnt had the chance to be "tagged" yet. He is very much an unknown.

Inauguration day and this do not bode well though......:laugh:

Well I am glad you admit you are as smart as Bush.. really puts some of what you say into perspective.

What I find hilarious is that you guys can't see that had this happened to Bush, everyone would have called him an idiot. Bush made a simple mistake just like Obama did and we all do every once in awhile. Only difference in this case between Bush and Obama is that Bush actually tried to open a real door... Obama tried to walk through a window :roll:

The shoe is on the other foot and the resident libs are screeching in pain already. Obama has made a ton of gaffs to show he isn't as smart as his cult make him out to be, this wasn't needed but it's another example to shove into their faces.

What the hell are you talking about? I can't speak for others, but all I've seen happening so far is people making fun of you morons for desperately flailing at Obama, trying to equate him to Bush.

The reason why Bush not being able to find the door is funny is because it played into the perception that he wasn't very smart. There is no such perception with Obama, so it's not as funny. I can't believe this needs to be explained. Then again, you're the creationist guy aren't you? Okay, I CAN believe this needs to be explained.

The media and his good public speaking skills will never, ever, EVER let Obama be labeled and idiot. It doesn't matter that Obama screws up all the time, when it comes to a politician, all that's needed is favorable press and a good public speaking skill and he could be barney rubble and still win accolades from mindless drones to public schooled morons to daily show only newsers to real educated people to mensa members alike.

Typical red herring eskimospy post. Divert, ascribe ignorance, pretend your all high and mighty. Notice I never compared Bush to Obama. Do notice I compared they both had Gaffs. You're a moron if you think a person's total intellect is summed up in their speaking ability.

Edit: The reason it IS funny with Obama is because of how he comes off as well educated due to his speaking ability. That and he tried to walk through a window. If you can't take a laugh in stride because of your partisanship, too bad for you. Personally I cracked up at Bush when he made that "fool me once" blunder.

That's right, label me for my beliefs to discredit anything else i might have to say without merit, know what that's called? I bet you do.

Spending 800+ billion on a pork filled spending bill touted as a stimulous package tells me Obama is a fucking moron.
