I a sure that lots of videos of Obama scratching his face will start to show up all over the place. So we can wait until then to see if this is a habit or a one time event.

Does Obama make you break out in a desperate sweat or something?

Your President creating a global uproar :roll:

That video is so weak... It is like Reagan and his 'we start bombing in five minutes' joke.

BTW I didn't create the thread, go bitch at everyone else.

Nice still picture of Obama for the opposite side of the room so you can see his hand clearly.

When he is repsonsible for near 100,000 dead Iraqis and 4000 dead and 20+000 seriously injured US troops.. get back to us

BTW, his finger in that pic is still bent in a scratching motion

Heh... the irony here is that from that angle you can clearly see that scratched his cheek with both his index and middle fingers.

Oh wahh... look at you whine! Quit being an apologist tool. If you gonna fling rocks from your proverbial glass house, you better be prepared for some broken windows. Take some personal responsibility for once in your life, hack.

Sounds like a big deal.

Hey, remember this one?

As Obama and his wife, Michelle, strolled triumphantly into his victory party in Des Moines, Iowa, on Jan. 3, Jay-Z's "99 Problems" was blaring. In it, Jay raps, "I got 99 problems, but a bitch ain't one."

Some listeners took it as a not-so-sly reference to Hillary.

"We didn't know he used that," a shocked Clinton spokesperson said.

Anyway...huge deal. Hopefully they can ask him about this in the next debate.

Unbelievable. And Americans sometimes wonder why they can't get a decent person to run for President... who would want to?

I love the replies from the locksteps at youtube...

Comments need to be approved by the guy who posted the video.

Why are you going after me?

I did not proclaim that Obama really gave Hillary the finger, go re-read my post.

And instead throwing out childish insults why not stick to the topic at hand.

Oh the irony that the guy you just called a 'hack' is the guy who posts a pic that shows Obama was not outright 'giving the finger'

Close this stupid thread. So what if he scratched his nose unconsciously with his middle finger. This violates P&N standards.

As if this speculation really matters? Not as though we have a great selection of candidates to choose from, so people might as well pick at this, Hillary's shrill voice, McCain being older, etc.

Obama should wear two casts on his hands for the rest of the election. He needs to be very careful too about any motions to spread his cheeks to quit farts. If he goes in the sun it will mean I'm proud to be a black nationalists and if he eschews sunlight, it's because he wants to be a wan as he can.

Don't even try to say he wasn't doing it intentionally. :D

The photo of the two fingers up to scratch tell us that the turd you saw was yourself. A fool like you can't be told anything, but the picture tells it all.

I don?t care for the guy anymore, but this looking for the tinniest of things from all the candidates is getting ridiculous they are not perfect robots. People should be looking more at how they all suck in general.

LOL, IMHO intentional, and I freaking love it.

That was awesome, and I'm not being sarcastic. Why the hell do we elect freaking scarecrows/empty suits anyway?

It gives me comfort knowing he can get that pissed off.

:thumbsup:
