President Obama suddenly and unexpectedly left a Joint Chiefs meeting Wednesday afternoon and was later photographed painting a homeless shelter. When asked why the President left the meeting so abruptly he responded "that just shows how strong my stimulus package is...it put even me to work".

President Obama is field testing his yet to be announced "Spring Remodeling and Color Changey Act". Initial figures show the cost to come in at around a paltry $63 Billion dollars. The new plan will be headed up by the Department of the Interior.

President Obama shows how a crew of Government workers should properly conduct themselves on Federal projects...one person works while three "look busy or watch" and one looks out the window.

When push came to shove, the First Lady decided that government workers were best at just standing around and made Barack employ one of his many artistic gifts to repaint the family's new White House den.

Barack is busy painting in the background color of his famous Obama Seal, which will soon grace one wall in each of the 132 rooms of the White House.

You'll get blue and like it.

Everything (and everyone) will be blue, by the time I'm done.

As long as I keep busy and keep moving, then maybe just maybe ... they won't catch on.

A man with a working brain is now President.

The bushies are, indeed, blue.

BHO demonstrates the art of 'Liberal Overreach' which is expected to define his first 100 days in office.

It is a change from the usual Washington whitewash.

When a reporter dared to ask Obama about the RAT board in the stimulus package, the other reporters dutifully held him down while Obama applied the long end of the roller in an anatomically improbable and uncomfortable manner.

Obama shows his concerns for the half of the taxpayers who pay 96% of the taxes that were left out of the stimulus bill by helping to get a nice place ready for them.

Obama is intent upon his decision to cover up all the "Red-Ink" paint with "Liberal Blue" in the hopes that the taxpayers won't notice.

Typical union setting. All the workers hang around while the black guy does all the work!

Obama: OK- now that you have learned "Wax On, Wax Off", we can move to "Paint the Wall Up, Paint the Wall Down".

(With apologies to Becker and Fagen)

This is the day of the expanding man.
That shape is my shade there where I used to stand.
It seems like only yesterday I gazed through the glass,
At ramblers, wild gamblers, that's all in the past.

You call me a fool, you say its a crazy scheme.
This ones for real, I already bought the dream.
So useless to ask me why, throw a kiss and say goodbye.
I'll make it this time. I'm ready to cross that fine line.

...They got a name for the winners in the world, I want a name when I lose.
They call Alabama the Crimson Tide, call me Deacon Blues.

Commander and Chief Zero goes with socialist sissy baby blue instead of the assimilating Communist spilled blood red of his forefather indoctrinators in a effort to show how he has changed the ideology of misery into the hope of stupidity.

Ode to Dubya ....

Blue, blue, my world is blue
Blue is my world now I'm without you
Gray, gray, my life is gray
Cold is my heart since you went away

Red, red, my eyes are red
Crying for you alone in my bed
Green, green, my jealous heart
I doubted you and now we're apart

When we met how the bright sun shone
Then love died, now the rainbow is gone

"Off we go into the wild BLUE yonder,
Climbing high into the sun;
Here they come zooming to meet our thunder,
At 'em boys, Give 'er the gun!"

President Obama has managed an mediocre attempt at the "return" salute but he had no idea where singing the Air Force song would take him.

"But boss - you sure diss color be the best one fo da Lincoln bedroom?"

Obama rolls on.

The messiah finally figures out a way to cover the long list of tax cheats in his administration.

"Since I say the sky is falling -I want everything in this Whitehouse blue."

ACORN get its first trillion dollar community upkeep bailout.

And the said he ain't got no experience.

... each paint-by-number kit includes one roller and up to ninety premixed, numbered paints. Ready to be applied to numbered spaces on the accompanying board. As the spaces are filled in, the gradual revelation of a picture surprises and delights.
