B.O.'s Hideous Birthday Cake
2009-08-06
This tacky monstrosity can't belong to Obama, can it?
The chief White House pastry chef just has to be hanging his head in shame ...
No doubt the morning after the election Mrs. Obama sent out her underthings to have coronets embroidered thereupon. Later, of course, she realized her error, and had the presidential seal added.

#16  Why did they put Pelosi's IQ on Obama's birthday cake?

#15  I thought 44 represented his latest approval rating.

#14  44 is the age on his "COLB"...heh

#13  Maybe he started counting [his age] backwards when he hit 46?

#12  I did forget the Coasties, Jim. Sorry.

But he's President #44, and he's 48 years old. What kind of B-day cake references your "place in history"?

#11  Nah, there's five of them there. You can see the edges on the left and right.
Maybe there's three more on the other side. ACORN, SEIU and UAW...

#10  Ummm, most people forget there are FIVE armed Services, they forget the Coast Guard and tend to lump it in with the Navy.

#9  I wonder if it's a subtle diss from the White House kitchen staff? Cuz that is one ugly cake.

#8  I couldn't give a crap, except that they released the photo for coverage.

#7  All those seals of the armed forces along the bottom fo the cake, and not a damned bit of respect for any of them by the honoree.

#6  Was there some problem with a simple "Happy Birthday Barrack"? Did it really require the Presidential seal? Let alone the seals of all 4 armed services?

#5  I'd be afraid to even pee on that thing. It might bite.

#4  Too much people, I doubt Bambi or the 1st lady ordered this cake. Did we see past Presidential cakes? Probably equally hideous. Do like him but don't pee on his birthday cake, that aint right.

#2  Why am I not surprised? Not surprised a bit.

#1  I think it's the medallions along the side, and lower tier of lettering that really make the cake something special....
