      Je trouve vraiment que votre regard apporte un " plus " dans la vision que nous, européens, avons de l'Amérique, de la Maison Blanche et bien sur des activités de Monsieur Obama.
      C'est un réel plaisir que de parcourir vos galerie.
      Have a nice sunday.

      As the president plays BBA with his rest colleagues , slowly he begins to grab more geniustic ideas which in return he uses to solve the healthcare tsunami issues and other disputes like the Afgan's crisis..check this out, that the more skills u acquire frm the court the more acquits u make to recover "lost and difficult plagues"...

      Obama is pulling the wool over your head azshines. The only thing he is smart for, is reading a speech from a teleprompter that someone wrote for him. Then go out and play like he knows how to be President. LOL

      Just noticed that all these guys look fit. What happened to the heavy guy from the other photo? Did he get winded and pull out? LOL! I give that guy an 'A' for effort in attempting to play with the President and the other cabinet and congressional 'athletes.' ;D

      Can you guys stop with your political BS, this is a photo sharing site not a political agenda site. Grow up.

      it's always funny how Obama just smiles at those who wish him harm.
      he refuses to stoop to their level... and they're not too happy about that.

      Why is Obama wearing pants during a heated b-ball game?

      @meetco: That's unbelievably foolish for you to tell someone who's trying to raise awareness about a gravely serious problem, caused by us, the United States, to "grow up." You can't handle a stray comment here and there on a Flickr site? Jesus. Besides, it's dealing with the POTUS. It's always political with the "leader of the free world." This isn't a typical Flickr stream. So deal.

      @Jacks Towne: the person that my comments where intended to be towards deleted their comment or it was removed. It was unwelcome and unwarranted. I never comment in that fashion because I usually do not care what other people say, but it was very out of line.
