Oops!

Barack Obama's Bomb-Proof Car Has Embarrassing Moment at U.S. Embassy

Here is a sort of adorable video of President Obama's car getting stuck as he leaves the U.S. Embassy in Ireland today. First he's dropping his Blackberry all over the tarmac, then he falls prey to a stealthy driveway slope? Such a regular guy, except for that leader of the free world/killing Osama Bin Laden part. The crowd's screams of horror when the car gets stuck are especially endearing. Noted: This car is reportedly called "The Beast" for its bomb-proof capabilities.

"Such a regular guy, except for that leader of the free world/killing Osama Bin Laden part."He didn't kill Osama, he happened to be in office when it happened. All he did was give the okay.

Yes, of course you're right... that's all he did.

 It's because of this sort of thing that I've long been on the Secret Service's, FBI's, and CIA's real shitlist. Not the one about threats to the nation... the one of jerks who call us and try to tell us how to do our job. I believe they do great work, I hope they understand; I just have a thing about the way in our sophistication we so often overlook the should be obvious (think the Apollo 1 tragedy, and how NASA got away with pressurizing vessels with 100% oxygen for nearly a decade).
