  • Who's That Girl?

    President Obama is in the middle of the G8 conference, where he and other world leaders are trying to fix the climate, the global economy, and about a million other terrifying problems. And yet, all anyone can talk about is a photo that supposedly shows the U.S. president and French leader Nicolas Sarkozy checking out a young woman's posterior.

    Once news of the photos broke, searches on "obama looking at woman's butt," "obama checking out butt," and the pun-tastic "tail to the chief" all soared through the roof. Also buzzing was the name of the young woman who Obama and his French counterpart were supposedly admiring: Mayara Tavares (some news outlets are spelling her first name "Mayora").

    So who is Ms. Tavares, anyway? According to TheWeek.com, she is a junior delegate from Brazil. Lookups on her name are up an astounding 9,212% in one day. And while some are looking at the photo as proof that Obama and Sarkozy could use some manners, a video from "Good Morning America" absolves the two of leering. Well, it absolves Obama, anyway. Sarkozy, not so much.

Sorry, ABC and other liberal outlets...we know what he was doing and can imagine what he was thinking about that CHILD. Of course you will never see it because you can't see what an impossible mess he is making of the US economy, how big Mrs. Obama's ass is, and that it might be a little bit of a problem for American's that he is a Marxist.

This is ridiculous the man has no dirt so let's just create some. It's a damn shame that by any means necessary people want to tarnish a good man. Just let him continue to do his job.

Obama could be standing there with his pants down and his hand on his crotch and nobody would say that he is doing anything wrong. That's just how the Obama propaganda bus drives.

Seems people can't find anything bad about Obama . so let's make something up. And I see some idiot even brought the Muslims into it. Guess he should never look down, or even below the neck, else he'll be accused of staring at some body parts. Not sure how the Muslim aspect fit into this - guess cause his father is Muslim. Go figure.

Talk about some people that want to blow it out of proportion, those people are just looking for something to criticise or complain about. People like that are pathetic with nothing better to do. Yeah the girl had a nice butt what straight guy wouldnt notice it if was right there infront of them. Just because a married man or woman gives another attractive person a brief look over doesnt mean that their cheating or doing anything wrong.

Are you people for real ? He check that bootie out for sure! then he did a cover up by staying focus in that direction longer. EVERY GUY knows this trick . but its not surprising that the media will find a way to fix his image. The media is so far up this man's @ss they can't even admit he is just another guy checking out a nice bootie.
