What if they had been issued sporks
Does a fork or dinner knife pose an unacceptable danger to President Barack Obama? One wouldn’t think so, given the hundreds of lunches and dinners he’s attended ranging from state dinners to political fundraisers to run-of-the-mill stops on the rubber-chicken circuit. However, at one such lunch Friday afternoon, guests heard an unusual announcement that they needed to hand over their silverware for security reasons.
“It’s very important that you use your utensils as soon as possible,” National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials board member Raquel Regalado told about 1000 delegates at the group’s annual conference.
On the surface, it looks like Obama is afraid of Latinos.
I don’t get why the Latinos put up with this. It’s a HUGE insult!
Did you see the knifes and forks being taken away at the last Hollywood Bash??
(don’t mention this little bit of reasoning to Dallas…)
Yup. But I think he is right to sense a threat. You don’t need a fork to eat a burrito.
The chicken was precut. Maybe they should have used chopsticks and spoons?
i guess there is no forking around with this president..
I just got a visual of a bunch of fat-asses sitting around a campfire in a stinking fog and shoveling beans off of their plates with spoons into their pie holes. 😉
Thank you for bringing back the memory of the Toots Orchestra playing a veritable symphony of flatulence from Blazing Saddles.
You can never be too vigilant to protect the most powerful and important person on earth.
Loons like Sara Palin are on the loose pushing gun cross hairs ads placed on the heads of elected officials for the lunatic fringe to carry out the crime. The secret service is wise to err on the side of caution, ESP during an election year.
Dallas, what kind of drugs are you doing exactly?
Ahh, yes. Your contribution looks very similar.
Again, the important thing to note (and obvious) is you’re unable to argue the truthfulness, integrity nor the facts of my opinion.
Instead, you divert your response to rhetoric, insult and innuendo. At the end of the day, I win and you’re a loser!
No, your “opinion” is such an eye-roller, it begs the question.
It’s my fault. I reminded him of it when they put Bush’s head on a pike.
The big question is why only when Latinos are the audience? Were forks taken away at Sarah Jessica’s house? And where were the raffle winners seated? Were they given the best seat in the house as promised?
He pulls a knife, you pull a fork. That’s the Chicago Way.
From the picture of the fork at the head of Obama on the blog I’m sure that poses a threat to the presidency and someone will be receiving a phone call from the secret service.
Hum a few bars of, “Fail to the Chief”.
Animal control should take note of this! For the safety of Obama they need to hunt down and dispatch all sh*t eating dogs too.
(Dont worry – it would save the lives of all the past but living presidents as well)
Drone me, fork me
bend me over again
Take my birthday
I care no more
Shame, Grace and Dignity
Have left the country I loved
You wouldn’t want your president to get FORKED do you?
Why not, politicians have no problem forking the public.
You over there… yes you… hand over the spork!!! Not so fast with the straw…taze him bro!
Wow! Uncle Dave posts an article that does not put Obama in a good light.
The times are really changing!
Not at all. A good blog site (like this one) needs to throw a bone periodically to sheeple (like you) that have typically weak arguments to anything of importance.
By placing a ‘fork incident’ and a cartoon of the president with a fork on his head, well…. you get the idea…
Good little bot…*pats head*. You are one of our last, little deluded one.
This just in: American president murdered by plastic sporks.
Trouble with a Politician is you can never truly believe what they say is coming from their beliefs or just because its what is going to get them votes. Obama to me has always come off as a person who believes the end justifies the lies. He is totally into the power of being President and will do almost anything to stay President.
I am not saying this is not the norm. I am just saying Obama does appear no more transparent then any other politician.
I just read a truly excellent article from the WASHINGTON POST on how f*d’up this Obama administration is, and on how they screwed up the war in Afghanistan.
It’s am excellent read for anyone with a brain. (Sorry, Dallas).

I don’t think that you can blame either the GOP or Democrats for fearing everyone since almost ALL of the people are polarized. Congrats to both sides for succeeding in doing so.
