...because it ain't gonna snow in Hawaii.
Hey, where do you think President-elect Barack Obama and his family are holing up in Hawaii? Think maybe it's that one house with frickin' cavalcade of cop cycles? Naw... probably not...
Barack, his wife Michelle, and their darling daughters Malia and Natasha were spotted doing some pre-Christmas sunning on thesecurity-riddled lovely coast of Kailua, Hawaii. And NO, we don't know where you can purchase Michelle's sensible one-piece.
Enjoy our EXCLUSIVE pics of your pec-tacular President-elect:

Helloooooooo Mr. President!
OBAMA!
awesome!!!!
Why can't you clowns leave them alone. Especially the kids. You can argue that the Obamas signed up for this but not the kids!
He's a PILF!
Good work, America.
Jane that was awesome, we're gonna steal that. PILF! LMAO!
Take the pics of the kids down!!!!
Good thing someone can enjoy a vacation with this economy..he deserves it..
I agree with the previous posters--you should take down the pictures of the kids!
Hopefully, this will be the last vacation that the paparazzi can get this close to the Obamas. They deserve their privacy.
Would YOU like to have a pic of yourself in YOUR mu-mu posted online? Give 'em a break, America!
YES, please in the name of God, take the pics of these kids down. This should be a crime, dude.
wish them all the best BARAK and his family i love them
Another yell to take the pictures of the children off the Internet.
Her name is Sasha not Natasha.
In the name of the invisible cloud buddy, calm down, paranoid folks. Dept of Homeland Security got you? There is nothing wrong with those pics of the kids. They aren't the holy grail and they aren't being abused by being photographed. Remember JFK and his kids? No harm, no foul. Happy holidays, folks.
Actually...her name is Natasha...her sort of nickname is Sasha.
Ugliest First Lady Obama or Carter? Toss-up.
Wow, He will show his boobies, but not his BC
Is it a vacation if that is where you are from? I consider it visiting home.
By the way, we know that those of you complaining about the pictures of the kids are just losers trying to sound like you are truly concerned but are really just lost souls in search of yourselves. Tip: this is not the place to do it.
Nice pictures, Mr. President whilee you are vacationing here with us in Hawaii, please stop by and sign the form to release your vault copy of the BC.

Mr. President, The Department of Health and Vital Statistics in Honolulu is open until 3:00 pm Christmas Eve, and then all day on December 26, please stop by and pick up your long form Birth Certificate so you can stifle the nay-sayers who say you are not eligible to be President.
I wonder what Barack is reading. (What's the yellow book he's holding? And b4 anyone' sez "the phone book", lol, I just said it for you). Anybody know the book he's reading?

Barack - YEAH!! Say hang-loose... No more FAT, UGLY, GREY-HAIRED, DUMB, OLD, liars, cheaters, haters and sickos in the Presidency. Hopefully the idiot Red States are finally getting it - especially (some) of the uneducated idiots in the mid-west. You know the kind that thought Sarah Palin was smart...hahahahahahahahahahahaha. Hopefully they are taking small steps..like learning how to spell, maybe read.
I love you Barack!!!!! You make me so proud - and now I can finally go overseas and admit I am from America! They love you in Europe, etc. Election prediction was somewhere around 84% in favor of Obama. MCCain the Old ass, face sagging, lying, fake is hated! He will never be able to travel out of the US. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! His campaign was so evil-Karma is going to get him and his idiot workers, it's gonna knock them off their feet. They are TOAST!

Ugliest First lady of all time? That would be the woman that George Bush the Elder always had on his arm. She wasn't actually a first lady since she was his mother, and I guess you have to give her a break for being so old, but it did always look funny. What? My buddy here is trying to tell me that was actually his wife! Now that's a howler! Barbara Bush was George's Wife? Get outta here. No way. She looked at least 20 or 30 years older than him. Then again, Republicans do tend to be Momma's boys.
Yellow Book Title - Being President for Dummies
Get off the Birth Certificate - He is a US citizen, you just look foolish bringing it up.
The kids are going to get their picture taken no matter what anyone does. I just hope the media is discreet when it come to them and gives them some privacy.

An sorry but Sgt Rock - how old are you really you thought Barbara Bush was George H. W Bush's mother? Wow
I personally feel uneasy that we see this good of pictures of the president elect and his family. I don't think think anyone should be able to get that close to them to get those kinds of pictures. That could have easily have been a scope on a gun....unsettling. The secret service should be more on top of this in the future.

Jay great comment, I agree he probably is a US citizen, so is Arnold Swartzenegger, but the one thing neither of them are is "Natural Born US Citizen", which is required to be eligible for the office of the Commander In Chief.
After the Bush shoe throwing incident and someone getting close enough to take these pics, the secret service needs a major overhaul.
Foolish, I don't know if you're aware of this but Hawaii is a US State. Obama was born in Hawaii, hence he is a Natural born US Citizen.
The non-US Citizen claim from Obama's critics is beyond pathetic. He's a Nat. Born US Citizen, the Birth Certificate is genuine. The end. For your sake (and ours) get over it and move on.
Give the family some privacy. Think of you being photographed in your most private moments. Regardless of your political views – family time should be sacred.

the hawaii police people took the pics and got paid. it's obvious that these photos were taken close range.
Congratulations Mr. President from Venezuela.......
All you people complaining about the pictures of the kids, where were you when everyone was attacking Sarah Palin's children? That is just a picture. No one is saying anything bad about them.
I want to know who is paying for that vacation. Anyone know who that may be?

Wow! This man is HOT!
I do feel a bit guilty about ogling over the shirtless photos but what a treat!
But seriously you do raise some really good questions about the proximity issue regarding the photographer and the Secret Service allowing this to happen.

this is a lot creepy. I can understand snapping that pic of Obama (he looks great, but i don't want to see my president half nude) - but what's the excuse for putting the girls online?
gross and highly disturbing. they're little girls. borderline stalkers.

Have you people ever heard of a 'zoom lens'?
Please Mr. Obama come to Venezuela see this poor country
Have you people ever heard of a 'zoom lens'?
Good work Secret Service. If a nut with a camera can get a shot then so can a nut with a rifle. idiots.
GET A LIFE PEOPLE! SHOW OUR PRESIDENT AND HIS FAMILY THE PRIVACY AND RESPECT THEY HAVE EARNED!!!
I recognize Michelle and the kids but who's the white dude?

Nice tan there my mulatto brother! Seriously though gals, the guy prefers other guys. You've got a better chance lezzin' it up the the Baby Mama.
For the Record I LOVE Michelle Robinson Obama she represents class, grace, beauty, health, and womanhood beautifully. To boot she has graduated from your(America's) finest institutions, she has tackled the legal profession, the health profession, and the motherhood profession. She runs circles around most busy women. Michelle from one brother who has a healthy respect for ALL that you represent "U GO GIRL"!!!!!
Attention Paparazzi:
I will pay $10,000 dollars for the first authenticated photos, and exclusive ownership thereof, of the first authentocated images of Mr. Obamas vault copy Long Form Birth Certificate.
This should finally put an end to all the fringe who believe he was born in Kenya, the long form will prove he was born in a Hawaii hospital
YO, COOL PRESIDENT !!!
THE US DON'T NEED TO HAVE ELECTIONS THE NEXT 20 YEARS, THAT'S FOR SURE!
X X X and a happy new year!

You are being decieved by this usurper, he isnt eligible to be president and WILL NOT SERVE. He has perpetrated a FRAUD on this country. Its bad enough that he was a member of the SOCIALIST New Party in Chicago, that his whole family were communists, but he is not a natural born citizen of the US even IF he were born in Hawaii. Although there is no PROOF that he is even a CITIZEN. WHY WONT HE SHOW HIS VAULT COPY OF HIS BIRTH CERTIFICATE? WHY? What is he HIDING? The thing on the internet is NOT his VAULT copy, it is not PROOF of where he was born. SHOW US THE REAL THING
tip to Eric Rumsey:
If you put tinsel on your head, the space aliens can't control your brain any more.
I really don't know what's most depressing: comments on the kids as if they were shown in God knows what terrible condition or Mr Rumsey's use of the words socialist and communist as one of those people that just like to have an image of evil once and for all, so they don't have to take the trouble of judging anything else in their lives.
Hannah - i'm a huge obama supporter and not a fan of Sarah Palin at all, but I defended little Piper in comments just like this. Doesn't really matter if you like the parent or not - leave the kids out of it.
Michelle definitely has the most back of any 1st lady! The kids should NOT be in these pics. The pervs are probably happy.
qu'on leur foute la paix,il a le droit de prendre des vacances comme tout le monde bande de paparasite.
vous vous croyez malin mais beaucoup de monde trouve cela normale et vous, vous ne prenez donc pas de vacance ???????????????????????????????
Mr. Bauer,
You have taken great photos, however I have a BEEF with you, I'm African American and as a Black Woman We find it very offensive to be referred to as "Gals" within our culture so in the future, plz don't use that term when referring to our "First Lady Michele Obama and her daughters Sasha and Malia", I hope you do take the time to read this posting.

You know I can't help but find this funny. On one hand we have people glad to have a fresh face and new ideas in the White House. But on the other hand we want to keep the same thing in the White House that got the economy into trouble. Everybody is concerned where Barack is from and want him to show his birth certificate. Stop and think for one minute about all of our ancestors NONE OF THEM ARE FROM THE UNITED STATES. Whites were from Europe and Black were from Africa (which we're brought against their will).
The only people that can truly say they are what we would call American's are the Indians. Everybody seems to forget how they were pretty much wiped off the face of the earth by the Europians.
It's great to have someone fresh as Commander and Chief. What harm can Barack do that hasn't already been done? My thing is get over it, this land belongs to none of us.
MOST AMERICANS GO HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS! HAWAII IS BARACK OBAMA'S HOME! It's natural for them to go there. Don't HATE...It's NOT nice.

did he come up with a real birth certificate yet?
Finally we have a US president(elect) who is an excellent example to the rest of the nation that a healthy, fit lifestyle is possible to whoever really pursues it. I totally admire and respect Barack Obama's commitment to his personal health & fitness. I read that even during his campaign and currently in spite of the quotidien exigencies of his transition, Barack still keeps his DAILY regimen of working out. That's impressive, given that a man in his position is no doubt a very busy person. Hopefully this will be an inspiration to all the fat, obese, overweight, lazy, excuse-making Americans (since we are one of the fattest nations on Earth) who need to learn from Obama that fitness and good health is attainable...NO MATTER HOW BUSY YOU CLAIM TO BE! Thanks Mr. President-elect for showing us through your example that we can do it.
It's so nice to have a beautiful First Family for a change!
Fitness Advocate - I agree - you do know he smokes though right?
Last I checked, Hawaii was part of the US. If this is still the case, then President Elect Obama is indeed a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN. If somehow Hawaii has left or been removed the the United States and become a part of Africa, someone Please let me know!!!
love it
good body, I think obama very thin :D
happy new year for all :)

Barack Is so sexy!!! Damn.. Michelle is lucky!!!
But I think this is getting to close to Barack
imagine if this was a armed man that will be bad!!!
his people should be taking better care of his privacy...
i think its wrong to show the young child in bikinis on your web site there are alot of weirdos out there and i think its unfair and u should remove the pics of the young children as for obama and his wife awesome
Good work, America.
Cool President!
From INDONESIA happy new year for all :)
To Happyfeet47, you are in a lot of pain. I pity you.
I really think that the Obamas deserve some privacy - but then again, so does everyone. I honestly don't understand why people are so obsessed with photos like there. They're just people. You see tons of those every day. I don't think it will harm the Obama girls, but I wish that we didn't even obsess over celebrities altogether.
And WTF is with some of you people? Why are you so intolerant and mean? People like you are the reason why we have wars, genocide, and merciless killing! Every person, no matter what color, age, or background, is a human! You should respect their right to live and be loved. If you have an opinion, keep it to yourself. We don't need any more problems in this world; we need people to help make this world a better place.
May God bless all of you this season. :]
Ok here is the deal... The pics are great, His wife is uber intelligent as well as pretty, the kids are amazing and well behaved and he is a Hottie.
At last some down to earth REAL typical multi racial American people living in our White House. Of course he is a US citezen you ignorant republican haters! I put the HATE back on you 100,00,000 times - U could have had a natural born Panamanian I capitalize only out of respect for my Panamanian friends, not the old drunk I'm refering to that senator mccain...or that ignorant thing from Alaska LOL! Jokes on you fools.
WOW 26 days left until we get our Country back...interesting how the old boy network has steadily punished all of America for electing a Great new President. By imploding the economy, trying to destroy the US Auto Industry, letting the housing market fail etc... It has been a fast steady downward spiral ever since President Obama won the Dem Primary. Hasn't anybody noticed..the idiot red staters and red old boy network knew even then they could never win.
However Obama and Co. will get the US back on track ASAP. God bless the OBAMAS! Robert L. T.-M.
Sorry for all the posts. Site was hanging.
I wish the Obamas the best of everything and a little piece of privacy! I agree that Michelle and the children should be left alone. In fact, I am refusing to look at anymore pictures of them. I know I wouldn't want these voyager pictures of me circulating around and around. All of us need to spend more time sharpening our own lives.
Merry Christmas to all of you out there! Now go out and take pictures of your own family and friends!
Happy Feet, YOU'RE AN IDIOT!! THE NAME CALLING SHOWS HOW IGNORANT YOU ARE!!
Obama!! Lettin loose..
Damn this man is so sexy... wow ... Michelle is lucky.What a family!!! God Bless America... i like it
I like this family. They seem so NORMAL. Thank God we decided to give Barack the reins, I hope and pray that God will be with him as he leads us. We sure need some help.
Great family doing what great families do for the holidays, enjoy each other's company...What a great beach they're on. The wife and I were married there with our families present. I'm happy for our president and his family. Good things ahead for America...and the world.
good grief - if you can't come up with better garb to b**ch about. the old man mc cain wasn't a natural born us citi and actually go look in history neither was washington or jefferson they were born when the states were still colonies so technically they were british nationals. if mr obama were of the paler nature none of this bs would be getting discussed. just look at all the past prez pics in the ocean and poolside, all their haggy wives and monster bad a-- kids. the obamas are a beautiful, proud family and it doesn't matter what any of the world thinks - get a life - get drunk - 'tis the season !!
That would be Malia and Sasha--not Natasha.
FINALLY a president with a brain...good buy Georgie Boy. I hope he is on the way to OZ to see the wizard. What a disaster you were.
Best of luck Berack. You have such a lovely family. Not sure how you are going to turn this mess around, but if anyone can, U can.
Used to be Republican.
It's been a while since we've had a president who works out and keeps himself in such good shape and health.
He will need to be physically strong to face the challenges ahead.
He inspires me to get rid of this gut of mine!
He exercises, keeps himself in shape???But continues to smoke cigarettes, sneaks cigarettes, and can be seen chewing his nicorette gum he claims to be chewing with him mouth OPEN, chomping on gum, it looks so low class, but it is widely reported he 'bums' cigarettes . His claim of down ot seven a day, bullllllsh....., Healthy, but still smoking, Now how dum can he be...we will find that out.

Have a warm and nice holiday Mister President elect with your wife and children.
And a cool presidency for 8 years
From The Netherlands we wish you Merry Christmas and a very Happy 2009
Hello First Family-elect!
Merry Christmas and New Year.
President-elect sir, pleased your family and you were able to go pay your respect to your Grandmother,and scatter her ashes. God bless her soul. Mrs. Dunham helped raise the 44th President of the United States. What a honor and privilege it has to be.
I'll take your word, you are not a perfect man, probably won't be a perfect President. Who among us can claim that title. Only One! I donated my little monies that could be spared, in hopes of you being elected. That was a wise choice on my part. Yes, I probably won't agree with all the choices you make. But I will stand behind you, as a citizen of this great country, in hopes that an intelligent man such as yourself will do what is right for ALL of us. You helped me to get involved with what's happening here and abroad. As our Leader, I will hold you accountable.
Pray you will be known as one of the best Presidents our country has known. Will close as this letter was opened....
Merry Christmas, and a Blessed New Year!
A proud Ohioian.
Enough with the citizenship thing already!!! My son was born in Hawaii, and the certified copy of his birth certificate looks EXACTLY the same as Obama's!!!! Those of you complaining are just sore losers who wish they could overturn the will of the majority!! We had to put up with YOUR pathetic Prez for 8 LONG years, now it is time for our country and it's people to be all that makes us great!
I am so proud of this man and all who elected him!
PLUS..... he does look great!! And so does his beautiful wife and children!
''Lets God bless Obama who is going to bless whole world''
''Lets God bless Obama who is going to bless whole world''
God bless America. Wow you are bless to have him as a president
hello my dearest hero,Merry Xmas ,i am expecting you will have a greatest moment in this vacation as a world class leader. i m your very good follower and wisher. Many thanks
Hey Barack is looking pec perfect from Australia - we love him here. All the best to the Obamas for 2009. :o)
That right, even though my son was born in Brazil in 1974, my son's Hawaiian Birth Certificate looks exactly like President Obama's too. Thats because I have always and proudly lived in Hawaii and my son has lived here with me since he was barely two weeks old. You Obama haters should leave this issue alone because he is a Hawaii citizen just like my son!
touch me
I WISH OBAMA & HIS FAMILY MERRY X-MAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR'2009...I EXPECT OBAMA SHOULD TAKE PEACHFULL USA STRATEGY FOR ASIAN MUSLIM PEOPLE IN 2009. GOD BLESS HIM.
StickyRice you are the BIG IDIOT !!!! I agree with HAPPY FEET. Our first lady and her daughters should be giving the highest REPECT !!!! Michelle is a QUEEN; HENCE, MALIA AND SASHA ARE PRINCESS.
GOOD LAWD! Michelle better keep her eyen on him. I would love to be an intern. No seriously.... The pictures of the kids got to go. Would you want your kids plastered all over TV and the internet? Trust me you could have made money just off of Obama and the pecs.
It does occur that to some extent our surprise at the Obamas allowing the public to see them acting naturally as they come and go on vacation may be due in part to our having become accustomed to the "Imperial Presidency" of the last eight years.
This may just be one of the ways they are beginning to let us know that they're bringing with them into the White House a new sensibility - and sensitivity to the interests of the people they are about to serve.
I'm just grateful to have a president with a book in his hand.
obama you sexy beast
What's with all the "get rid of the kids' pics" comments? Who cares? They're just kids being kids, first family or not. I'm sure the Obamas all realize to some extent that this sort of heightened publicity's going to be the norm for at least four years, and honestly, I admire them not being super-secretive and staying in hiding despite that.
Looking good, Barack, and looking forward to a change of pace for this country.
Damn Michelle is straight up fugly and Obama needs to stop showing his moobs and girly legs.
sexiest first lady and president ever!!!
President Obama,
Lift Cuba embargo !!
Mas Bauer...Apik tenan, hasil jepretannya apa gak takut sama secret service? wah Presidennya keren abis..kan beliau pernah sekolah sdn di menteng..Mas bauer kapan ke Jakarta..? Motret prediennya Inyong bisa ga? Ya iya lah..masa Ya iya dong..kan mulan Jameella bukan mulan Jameeldong!!
Wow. Michelle Obama is not only elegant and sophisticated but poised, intelligent, and assertive. And she sounds good even when she isn't reading from cue cards (cough: SarahPalin: cough). All you who are yelling about Michelle Obama being ugly -- perhaps you don't care for brown-skinned women. Which is fine. But that doesn't make her ugly, just not your type.
Mr. President please don't punish the UAW for what the auto companies have done. We have given more than our share.
1. He's not the president.
2. He's not even eligible to be POTUS under the Constitution. Hint: Neither was McCain and the Senate admitted it. Go check your facts.
3. He's nothing but a "typical" spendthrift.
4. He's not respected by the average intelligent American - at all.
5. No one I know is going to acknowledge him. He'll constantly be caught up in lawsuits for the next 4 years.
6. I'm going to enjoy exposing every move he makes.
7. He will go down as the biggest fraud this country ever allowed.
8. Bill Clinton knows the truth.
9. Obama is no messiah.
10. Obama is nothing but a loser puppet and Rahm Emanuel should be in jail.
I see the Obama machine is still out in full force pretending to have numbers because the losers had nothing better to do on Christmas. That figures!
It you idiots thought you weren't that transparent, think again.
Your day is coming soon.
Thanks god to creat such as gentle man for the people of the world.thats nice...
Longue vie a cette homme formidable et puisse t-il être épargné,lui et sa famille de la cupidité des tyrans.
Du Canada,Meilleurs voeux pour Barrack et les belles choses qu'il aura l'occasion d'accomplir en cette année a venir et dans les prochaines qui suivront.
God Bless your President and all his family!
Love our new president & his family. Finally !! some intelligence in out White House. Love the pictures of the President......the pictures of his children...... very tacky, inconsiderate, uncaring, desperate, and unprofessional.
J....if we wiped the indians off the face of America...how come we pay muti-millions to all the indians left here in SD..ND..MN..WY..NEBR..OK..and everywhere else they still live. Don't have shortage of indians. Our ancestors were the one's to do this not us and when do we make our final payment to these people that are the ancestors of the one's we did this to. First big job for Obama is to decide when the indians can work for a living and not stand with there hands out.
Ha Ha Ha. This is funny. I do not remember any other President -elect to be photographed like this. And where is the secret service or the ones that are paid to protect. It is a disgrace! First we have shoes thrown at the President and now we have pictures of President elect posted on the Internet. This is too funny.
obama is my president!
he represents new hope to the whole world! how awesome it that!!!
i feel privledged to have such an intimate look at his very beautiful family and do not wish to surround him with negitivity. name calling from any side is not very mature.
i wish all of us......peace on earth, good will toward men....(otherwise the human race is not going to survive)
When he run for President he threw his private life out of the window. He should have thought of his children. It is the job of the photographers to take pictures why should they spare the President elect? Remember Princess Di and her chidren? Why should be different with Obama and his children?
This is to Intelligent Americans who voted for a change from "business as usual"/ Obama and saw that promise in a (finally) intelligent, articulate person who reads newspapers, knows a law or 2 or 3; knows some GEOGRAPHY, understands that the US Supreme Court has made some important decisions AND remembers a couple of them; who actually went to college, completed his course work and was known even then as articulate and intelligent and who actually brings SOMETHING of his OWN to the table, rather than a degree in MY-FATHER'S-MONEY/OILWELL/CONNECTIONS; my I-DIDN'T-QUITE-COME-LAST-IN-MILITARY-SCHOOL or does NOT have to hide behind racist rhetoric to make a point: (Don't worry, the other group will not be able to READ what is being written here - that is the reason they LISTEN to Slimebaugh & Co.)
Pay no attention to the Birth Certificate issue; The Obama's do not. Those fools just want to be noticed. Right Wing Repugs are KKK in suits. They speak ill of anyone who proves them wrong, WHO ARE SMARTER (ALMOST EVERYONE). These are evil, fearful people; fearful of their own shadow; terrified now that all the stolen money is gone (to some other thief); angrier than ever that they KNOW who the thieves are but cannot OUT them; ashamed that the BIG BOAST (I hear that is a particular talent of DUBYA from EARLY years) and lies have been found out. They are just SICK of themselves, and as have been their training, they looks for someone else to blame. Sad! sad! sad!!!
I am delighted that they were able to take a very needed vacation and to pay respect to his grandmother. I am not surprised by many of the comments regarding his children and family. I do, however, agree that the pics of the children, especially in their bathing suits, should be removed immediately. Second, it is concerning to see the Paparazzi have the ability to get so close to the first family, especially in their private location. Third, I would also like to know what book he is reading. Fourth, Michelle is a very beautiful, intelligent and strong woman and mother and I have the utmost respect for her. Last, as a single parent and a student (masters in education) I am excited about President Obama's plans for changing the NCLB law and increasing teachers pay.
Thank you and it was an honor to volunteer for your campaign in Ohio. I am proud and confident that Ohio made the right decision.
Hi I hope the world will understand that Mr Obama is the right man for the job (President, Father and Husband)he is not perfect nor will he fix all the problems but he is honest and this is something US politics need A CHANGE IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME COMING. Just allow him and his family to to rest before the storm begins on Jan 20th 09. What every American needs to do ( black, white, hispanic, jews, man, woman or any other) is to give him the support so that he can guid the country and make the change he has promise. He certainly has my support and I am not even American.
hello Mr. President
****This comment has been deleted for excessive idiocy****
Do these people who are calling the Obamas names think they really give a darn what they are saying? I mean come on, talking about Michelle's behind,or how ugly she is. Get use to it that won't change one darn thing, she still will be the First Lady of the United States. Michelle is not ugly. Do you think Cindy McCain is beautiful? Heck no. Neither is that idiot from Alaska. And when it comes to Michelle's behind, not all women have flat asses. I will admit I talk about Palin's 17 year old pregnant unmarried daughter. I said that if it was Obama's daughter in that situation, could you just imagine all the terrible things which would be said about them? The Obama Haters wouldn't give a darn about that child. I talked about the hypocrisy from these people. I'm going to click off this site and get ready for January 20th. Where my President and his First Lady and their kids will walk into the White House. And the sorriest president ever will go back to Texas.
Well, Dr. Martin Luther King, We did over-come.
WOW, HE IS SO BEAUTIFUL, PERFECT BODY FOR THE NEW KING OF USA,I LOVE IT, THANKS A LOT FOR THIS AMAZING PHOTO,LOL.
Greetings from Australia, fellow World citizens. Yes, I must admit I followed a link to see Mr. Barack with his shirt off - & it was a very good look too. As was Ms. Michelle, & the kids look like happy kids having a good Xmas holiday - well-deserved. In fact, it looks like a fairly normal family break. I don't see what the problem is with kids running around in bikinis on a beach holiday.
A holiday obviously tinged with sadness due to Barack's grandmother dying just before the election day. What bittersweet irony. But apparently Mrs. Dunham had already registered her vote before she went to Heaven.
Unfortunately, the Obamas are now in the public domain, & they will have to negotiate their privacy with the press, as do so many others. I think the ghost of Princess Diana is always in the background on that one. However, I dare say the Obamas will work that one out with their usual intelligence and caution as they go.
Quite a number of us over here in Australia are totally overjoyed that George W. Shrub is packing up & leaving Washington. (We don't have to listen to those unintelligible sound grabs for much longer). Do you know that George Bush did not have a passport until he became President? Our former national leader (whose Liberal party lost last year's election), John Howard (whom we had to endure for 12 years) became one of George W's Best Friends, & Bush convinced Howard to also send troops to Iraq, which must be one of the most ill-conceived wars in history. Our Australian troops are still over there, getting shot & blown up to the bejesus too. I've always wondered - if it was just a matter of getting rid of Saddam Hussein & his psychotic sons, why not a couple of assassins? One word: oil. Second word: money.
So, because our former Australian leader decided to follow George W. Shrub, we too became targets from right-wing Islamists, which has resulted in carnage such as the Bali bombings.
Our new leader, Kevin Rudd & his Labor party were elected just over a year ago, ending the 12-year deadlock of the former party (very akin to your current American experience of Democrats unseating the incumbent Republicans), & sure, they've made mistakes, they may not have gone as far as we wanted them too, but they've done some great stuff, & at least there's educated, forward-looking thinking amongst their representatives. There has been a mass sigh of relief not to have a leader who was so out of touch with his populace and with current issues [eg. he was a climate change denyer, he thought Guantanamo was fine etc etc].
OK, with the current Rudd Government, we still have to keep on their backs, & tell them what we want - but that's participatory democracy, isn't it?
I would suggest to those of you above who are agin or undecided about Obama, to read the book he wrote nearly 10 years ago "Dreams From My Father". I read it about 18 months ago. Even if it had not been written by Barack , it's an incredibly good read. It details an incredibly interesting, very multi-cultural childhood & adolescence, & his experiences as a community organiser were an eye-opener to me.
Congratulations America - apart from anything else, you've managed to elect a man who has lived in both white & black worlds, has experienced both racism & privilege, who has travelled and lived in a number of countries, who is not only educated but knows how to think, and speak without an autocue. A man who obviously values his wife and family as his basis, & I think knows he's lucky. He also seems to have some sense of humility, enjoys sport & music & I dare say he & Michelle indulge in a tad of the horizontal tango in the midst of it all. Very normal.
I think it will be a very interesting presidency, & gee I wish I had a ticket to the Inaugural Ball - what a party.
And I must say I had a chuckle about the correspondents above as to whether Hawai'i was part of America. I believe they stopped teaching geography in American schools some years ago, that would account for it. It would probably account for the question I was asked a couple of years ago in Portland, Oregon, as to just WHAT language we speak in Australia. (It's English, by the way).
Anyway, let's look to a new era. Best wishes to all for 2009.
I would just like to say as a Canadian I am very proud of Barack Obama and what he has achieved. Congratulations from both myself and my husband. We have followed Barack since his speech at the last Democratic National Convention and we feel that if anybody deserved to be President he does. May the next 4 years bring many changes for the betterment of mankind and we wish you all the best.
" Hopefully this will be an inspiration to all the fat, obese, overweight, lazy, excuse-making Americans (since we are one of the fattest nations on Earth) who need to learn from Obama that fitness and good health is attainable...NO MATTER HOW BUSY YOU CLAIM TO BE! Thanks Mr. President-elect for showing us through your example that we can do it."
Correction: THE fattest nation on Earth. Unless there's an unknown republic somewhere populated by Sumo wrestlers!
