That’s some good stuff right there.

“No, honey, I was just staring at the concrete step for 15 seconds!” 🙂

Sarkosky is the one that kills me. The guy needs to work on his technique. Maybe take some pointers from Obama.

How bad can his technique be if he managed to land Carla Bruni?

Or Seinfeld. (“It’s like looking at the sun.”)

Really? I’m a married man, and I would _much_ rather be caught looking at another woman than caught _rubbing_ another woman. My wife points out really spectacular women to me (usually I’ve missed them), but so far, she hasn’t encouraged me to go hands-on.

C’mon… he’s just considering her stimulus package.

I don’t think you need very good technique while staring at a model.

I like how, in the video, Obama and Sarkozy are described as giving her a “once over.”

No way is that just “once” by Sarkozy, unless if you’re counting that he didn’t take his eyes off her at all barring crowd interference.

Maybe he did slightly when he put his elbow in Obama’s back trying to get him the hell out of the way 🙂

I suppose Reagan would have told her what a pretty little lady she was, and how lucky was the guy whose secretary she was… and had her turn out to be the Prime Minister.

Nixon wouldn’t have been checking out her ass, he’d have been too busy putting her on his enemies list for turning her back to him.

Hey, this is fun!

J. Edgar Hoover would ask her where she bought the dress.

LBJ would have gone to her room that night, slid in next to her and said “Move over, honey, this is yore present.”

WTF? Disrespecting another head of state through inappropriate touching is less bad than (possibly) briefly and discreetly checking someone out?

Jimmy Carter would have committed adultery with her in his heart, repented, and then expected a Nobel prize for it.
