Obama’s Hawaiian Memorial to Grandmother
Barack  Obama’s Hawaiian family vacation isn’t just about sandy beaches and warm weather. It’s about saying goodbye. Barack and family held a private memorial service for his grandmother, “Toot”, Madelyn Dunham on a secluded coastline of Oahu, where they spread her ashes, along with flowers, into the ocean. Of course, Bauer Griffin was there to take the photos, and yes, I have access to them, but will I post them? Hell no. I might post the man looking all hot on

Barack Obama Topless in Hawaii
I think its great that he is like every other American and doesn’t wear a shirt to the beach… i mean wouldn’t we all be talking about how stupid it would look if he wore a shirt into the water…. I think people just need to mind there own business and just base him on his presidential skills. I mean he does have a family and kids, why wouldn’t he go to the beach. Is he suppose to stop all of that because he’s president? NO!!! because he is an American, he can g

Gay Congresswoman to co-chair Obama inauguration
Barack Obama is evidently trying to save face with the gays after the whole Rick Warren mess, so he's appointed openly gay Congresswoman Tammy Baldwin to serve as co-chairperson of his inauguration. Representative Baldwin will be one of 16 honorary co-chairs for President-elect Barack Obama's inauguration. Other co-chairs chosen by the Obama transition team include: former Presidents Bill Clinton, George H.W. Bush and Jimmy Carter. Obama, of course, will be sworn in on January 20th in Washington.

Obama report cites no shady talks with Blagojevich
WASHINGTON – President-elect Barack Obama and two of his top aides met last week with federal investigators building a corruption case against Illinois Gov.

Obama's sweet talk is a tale of pie
Sen. Barack Obama likes pie. Over the last three days of campaigning, it's become clear that he's given a great deal of thought to pie. He's talked about the kinds of pie he likes, about having a pie contest where he'll be a judge, and how pie fits into the larger economic difficulties of our time. On Thursday afternoon, in Georgetown, Ohio, Obama and Gov. Ted Strickland stopped at a diner for pie. He's been talking about the visit ever since. He waxed on about his pie during a rally in Portsmouth, Ohio t

NYC museum avoids glib parallel between Obama, FDR
Sworn in as president in the midst of a deep economic crisis, Franklin D. Roosevelt turned his first 100 days into a swirl of action as he sought to right the sinking ship of state. At first glance the analogy between Roosevelt in 1933 and President-elect Barack Obama in 2009 seems almost too obvious. But at the New-York Historical Society, a new exhibition titled "A New President Takes Command: FDR's First Hundred Days" avoids overly simplified comparisons between the early stages of the Ne

Here is the photo of Barack Obama shirtless in Hawaii:
Everyone is swooning about this photo of President-elect Barack Obama vacation for Christmas in Hawaii. Despite the fact that people seem really shocked to have a buff President, I have to wonder why the secret service let someone get close enough to get a photo like this - shirtless or not. I don't think we've seen a President in my lifetime with the confidence to walk around shirtless and in his swim shorts. Obama is all about change isn't he?! The President-elect has a great set of pecs and abs! Wor

Obama Makes Bible Pick
A press release from the Presidential Inaugural Committee reveals that President-Elect Barack Obama has selected the Bible he will use for his swearing-in: "On January 20th, President-elect Barack Obama will take the oath of office using the same Bible upon which President Lincoln was sworn in at his first inauguration.
