    on the 4th picture, that's an offensive foul on obama, fending defender with the arm. =)

    Shane Battier needs to invite our great presidente to a home game. I can't believe I missed this thread the first time around.

    That's good post defense.

    (I assume you mean the 5th pic... 4th is of Obama shooting alone... only W. could commit a foul while playing with himself.)

    Well, you are half his age... though he probably has you on guile and I bet you'd be a little psyched out with all the Secret Service guys watching your every move.

    His jumping ability is average at best. I guess he has elevation compared to the guys guarding him in those pics, but they still have their feet on the ground.

    He was born in 1961, as was I. I am much closer to 50 than 40 as is he.

    This is a bit of a tangent, but aside from the cigarette in his mouth I don’t see anything in this picture that would give anyone a negative impression of Obama. Smoking is bad, of course, buy I think we all knew he smoked. He looks tired, and his collar is undone, but aside from the photoshopped in cigarette I don’t see anything wrong with this picture. I’m guessing that there’s some kind of code here that has a meaning within the American context that I’m not picking up on.

    Here's another president getting, or giving, elevation too.

    it actually gives a negative impression to people who post it because it is obviously photoshopped

    don't forget to whipe your keyboard off after you're done.

    Everyone knows that Putin is the scariest man alive. I'm sure Fedor is even scared of him.

    There's little doubt in my mind that Obama will win the NBA MVP since he gets every other award he doesn't deserve. [/Republican]

    Maybe, but I'm not picking it up either. He looks cool. I'm sure Phillip Morris loves that picture (which I guess might be the problem, if there is one).

    47 actually. Even the HS picture he is barely off the ground. I'm convinced that it is pretty average.

    Who is CB? Charles Barkley? Him getting off the ground amazes me with his weight. :eek:
