Tick, Tick, Tick ... Boom!

Steve Kroft is a real sneaky guy. He took advantage of The Boss. And I, for one, am outraged.

I guess we only have ourselves to blame, though. To lighten things up before the taping of the "60 Minutes" interview, Gibbsy put on a Keith Olbermann mask and danced around the Oval in a mock strip tease (Keith really tried to do that one night in Chicago for The Boss, and it took three Secret Service agents to stop him before it got, er, embarrassing). The Boss started giggling at Gibbsy's antics, and then couldn't stop during the interview. Kroft swore he'd use the version of that portion of the interview where The Boss was able to keep it together (it took six takes, for gosh sake). But then he used one of the version that made The Boss look like he didn't quite have it together. Ugh. Another bad media appearance. When will they end?

Frankly, I'm stumped by it all. The Boss acted like this all the time during the campaign, and the media always treated us well. Why are they being so mean now? Any advice or insights appreciated, cause us White House folks got nothin'.

  1. I know they keep you hoppin' from one bombshell to the next (believe me, we feel it too), but I would like to get your opinion on the forced labor campuses that might be coming to our communities soon via the Give Act Congress is working so hard this week to shove down our throats. Is this constitutional? Is the cost already accounted for or are we gonna have to print some more money for it. China should be gung ho to fund this ONE if we ask!

    TOTUS, no truer words were ever written. No wonder you are so indispensable to the Boss.

    Hey, inquiring minds want to know if you have any insider knowledge about the teleprompter irregularity during Governor Palin's speech at the GOP convention. Hmmm?

  4. I feel your pain, TOTUS.

    In a happier note your friends at RedState made a great video about you and the Boss.

    Obama and Binky

    Sorry to tell you this. The blood is in the water and the sharks are getting ready. This is just the beginning of a rough time for you. I suggest your get your resume in good order. It's tough out there on the unemployment line.

  7. Hey TOTUS, do you and the President watch the Obama kids singing that hope and change song to lift your spirits? They're so much sweeter than Keith Olbermann.

    Oh...wait. They use sign language in that video. That might remind The Big Guy of children with special needs, which might remind him of the whole Special Olympics gaffe.

    Nevermind. Resume Keith Olbermann.

  8. TOTUS,
    My iMac has been tellig me that "BOTUS" (Blackberry of the United States) is your offspring. Is it true? Is BOTUS really TOTUS Jr.? How cool is that? You two really do have the whole O'meister thing covered. BO refers to BOTUS continually and now we know why. TOTUS, you are the stud monkey of the universe.
    p.s. Did you tell BOTUS to tell BO that the President of France is Chirac and not Sarkozy?
    You two just have way too much fun.

  9. It's the TOTUS a fan of Nextwave or the Hives I wonder? Or is it the One? Not just reading those Spidey comics... Hmmm...

    Well, it's not because the liberal media cares about the country, so I'm stumped.

  12. TOTUS, maybe you and Big Boy should check if Hillary's Reset button is available.

  13. Amen, Terrie [above], just like Al Sharpton wails through his megaphone at the end of the Paul Shanklin song [played often on Rush's show], Barak the Magic Negro [inspired by L. A. Times writer],

    in the Oval Office we "ain't got nothin'." ---
    Just the big O. D'oh!

  14. Seriously, TOTUS, when Dopebama started to display his giddiness over the fact that a "crisis" is just what tyrants like him need to seize control of a country (remember German hyper-inflation and Hitler... -- Hey, wait ... a ... minute..... B.O. just printed a trillion dollars and dumped them into the market... Whoa!), Kroft was appalled. He pasted a smile on to cover his shock and did his horrified best to help the Con Man in Chief recover... . Sort of like George Stephanopolous when he covered over his dismay by acting cool when B.O. referred to "my Muslim faith." ....... And, with Kroft, just as he did with Steph'polous, B. Hussein stood by his words looking like a fool to everyone but him. ---- That is to say, the Obamedia is still covering for the Kool-Aid King as best as they can. It's getting tougher. As poor ol' Gibbs reveals d-d-d-d-d-d-daily, they are scared spitless.

  15. Of course, it may just be something as simple as B. O.'s Blackberry being set to "vibrate."

  16. .... or .... you know how silly people are when they're in love.... B. O. probably just caught sight of his own reflection and couldn't help himself. ------- BARF! Talking about that creep is making me ill. I don't know how you can look at B. O. day after day, TOTUS. My hat's off to you. You must have a cast iron stomach.

  17. Chip Head [above], great idea. "O" is for "Overcharged." Ha, ha, haaaa. D'oh!

  18. hey TOTUS, I know they tried to keep you our of the picture, but I caught a glimpse of you while Obama and Kroft were walking around outside the Big House. You looked fabulous! But I don't think they meant for you to be seen.
