But then, I guess that’s to be expected from a faculty lounge red hoping to be noticed by the real deal. All that’s missing in this needy little drama is for Obama to make Vlad a friendship bracelet, and maybe a collage featuring a lot of mustaches and Warren Beatty and, like, potatoes and such.
The friendship bracelet image cracked me up.
And here I thought the next phase would be for him to stand outside Vlad’s bedroom window holding a boombox over his head.
Mixtape. Starts and ends with Billy Bragg, I’m sure.
Vlad: (sleepily) Da?
Obama: Hi, Vlad! Ya busy? I wanted to, ya know, ask you about Syria and stuff. What do you—
Vlad: *click*
“Vlad – I need a favor.”
“What?”
“I need to be seen as relevant. Can you set something up so that I can confront it, and then you back down? Please?”
*sound of dark, evil laughter*
“So – is that a yes?”
“Vlad.”
[…]
“Vlad.”
[…]
“Vlad.”
[…]
“Vlad.”
[…]
“Vlad.”
“What do you want?”
“You awake?”
Of course the country that most proudly snubbed him is the one Obama is most desperate to have return his calls.
Remind me to throw a party and invite everybody but Obama. THAT’LL get my hobbity ways noticed by the White House.
Definitely a bottom.
“Vlad.”
[…]
“Vlad.”
[…]
“Vlad.”
“Vat?”
“…Ohh…..you’re there….It me….Barry.
“Vho?”
“Barry…..Barry Obama….you remember…..ahhhh…pres of the US….ahh…..Harvard grad…..you remember, right?…..anyway I was wondering if we could set up a photo op…..you know…..just the two of us…..like homies?”
“Vas ess das Hummies?
“Ummmmm….well buds, pals….and we could be like just hanging and stuff.”
“Vho ess dis againsk?
“Ok, ok, how about just signing a couple of care bears for my girls….. they think of you as Uncle Putin, and they’d get a real kick out of…”
“Da…now I understandink….Das Capatilist peeg from Eww Iss Hay…..How yu say in Iglitch….

Katrina –
Maybe you’re already thinking about which family photo you’ll use in your next holiday card — or maybe your Facebook photo is due for an update.
I’ve got a once-in-a-lifetime solution: President Obama is coming to New York City for an event in a few weeks — and you could get to meet him.
Chip in $25 or whatever you can today and you’ll be automatically entered for a chance to get your family photo taken with the President.
I wanna be loved by you
Just you and nobody else but you
I wanna ba loved by you
Alone
Poot-pooty-poot
Chip in $25 or whatever you can today and you’ll be automatically entered for a chance to get your family photo taken with the President.
Jeebus Swingin’ Christ. We have the Publishers’ Clearing House President.

I suppose with some lessons and a good teacher he could be Putin’s 3rd deputy assistant Wormtongue.
I just don’t see Obama as a grim submissive eyed vodka bucket in the house of the bear. He’s more of a party yell leader at best.
I’m thinking Obama believes this posture will help him reach his real future goal:
His coronation as U. N. Secretary General with unlimited authority enabled by a weaker, much less independant U.S.
I’m burying them Vlad, I’m burying them.
