Actually, I won a contest in 2003 to travel to the next years DNC (making it 2004). Among the specifics of the prize was a lunch with Barack and his staffers at, of all places, Hooters. We had a great time discussing politics, current events and who had the largest hooters at Hooters. My friend Peter came too. He enjoyed himself, as Hooters is one of his favorite restaurants. After, we were invited back to Obama's hotel to party the night away except we had already made plans to visit Al Gore's hotel! I know right?

As far as the 'Calgarian hockey fan' comment, I feel this is unfair. My house did not have access to the internet before March of 2007. This made it very difficult to join a message board which is primarily, if not entirely dependent upon the internet. I can assure you that Calgarypuck was the first site I visited after signing up for CadVision in 2007, and remains the only site I have ever visited to this day.

What was your first experience with Obama like?

Going back to slave holding history on is a moot point as both candidates had ancestors that kept slaves.

Sounds like a great experience. You were very lucky.

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt without even looking. Pretty good prediction considering he hadn't even won a Senate seat at that time.

Me I started to like him during the Democratic Primaries. Thought he had lost it when he said he would invade Pakistan. It looked like Hillary would chew him up. Anyone who doubts that is welcome to search the CP threads.

Some people wondered if Obama was wearing body armour. The answer is yes.

According to Caballero, many of his garments offer more than three levels of ballistic protection and they are about seven times more flexible than the Kevlar vests that are usually worn.

I apologize if this is a FATA

That's really interesting, actually. I kind of figured there had to be some kind of protection for the secret service to let him walk down Pennsylvania Avenue in the open like that.

Out of an abundance of caution - President Obama re-took the oath yesterday because of Chief Justice John Robert's little slip up on the initial oath.

What they didn't tell us was that there was a third oath taken to his supreme overlord xenu, in which he swore to keep the world ignorant of the upcoming invasion by the Kleosites who plan to use us a renewable source of both food and sex slaves. The scary thing is that they find human males to be hot, and human females to be tasty.

What I failed to mention is that all Kleosites have the same name Xenu, which when roughly translated to english is Phil.
