17. Bowing to the hardhats...
Freeps must be in an uproar!

I know he's very hands-on and figured he was adjusting the railing or something!

2. There's something about his expression in #4 that I love. #9 gives me the creeps.

16. It was this one


I can understand why it freaked some people out, it looks creepily like the barrel of a gun so I removed it from above.

18. Huh. I didn't think that at all.
But did think "Wow, we're manufacturing something in this country!"

22. Thanks for explaining, Jackeens. Now that I see other reactions
to it, I guess I was being over sensitive. I like the James Bond idea much better :-)

28. Thanks for reposting Jackeens
In the context of the other pics that would never have occurred to me, but with your explanation I can see it.



Thanks again for the photo threads. :hug:

5. Is he trying to raise the bar in that last pic?
Looks like he's really putting his back into it. :D

6. Geeze! Someone should post this over at the Freeper site!
More White Soldiers being forced to revere their CIC under duress, or just simply citizens who have volunteered for the armed forces and are happy to see their strong, wise and determined CIC! :)

25. You know, I love pictures like this...
I love to see Obama "forcing" or "ordering" our soldiers to smile and shake his hand.

I love this, food for Freepers and for Fox. I hope they show how Obama ordered them to be there, like he did in Iraq.

LOL

27. I was asked to drive in the motorcade for this trip.
I had to turn it down because of a business trip. I am so bummed but 2 friends of mine were fortunate to be able to. They met Obama in Newton. When he walked in the room to meet them he said that he acknowledged them as friends. What a great guy!
