He smokes, so by Tahitian standards, he is halfway there!

I second the excitement!
We watched some of the coverage in school today (class of 7th graders), and it was amazing to hear their thoughts about him, too - like everywhere else, some support him and some don't ... or aren't sure. Kids are cool.

Main thing, he and his keiki been flash the shaka sign to the "strawberry shortcake huckleberry pie" band marching in the cold street. Now all he need is one Pueo for paddle on the Pontomac?

Well, one thing is certain ; Obama seems a lot fitter than most or perhaps all polititians in the world today .
I`ll be contacting him soon and offer him a position as a team rider .
A Fuze would fit him perfectly .

Any clubs in DC? What a scoop this would be for the sport!
Imagine the Pres paddling...
Then the world be turning right!

Don
t worry , the situation is well in hand . At this moment Im in a perfect position to become a member of the Obama cabinet as outrigger canoeing secretary ..... Its a way better job than that one offered last week to hang around on Hamilton Island and post on the internet about how decadent a person can be .....This job has fantastic perks ..... a fully luxurious , fully equiped with crew , Lockheed C5 Galaxy loaded with canoe racks, dinning room , wet bar , hot tub, and helicopter on floats .
Plenty of room to take all of your friends racing and even room for the competition just to keep things fair and ballanced.

Someone should send him an OC1 and a paddle, seriously. Whaddya say gang? Everyone pitch in for the Presidential Pueo!
#12 Thu, 01/22/2009 - 3:05am
After I recieve my bailout , I`ll send Fuze to him ......and one to Hillary too , she needs one bad ....

And the buggah can body surf pretty good too. Check out the pictures of him at Sandy's. He get his own unique technique and style. A natural waterman.

When Clinton was prez, Merlin gave him a ti road bike. The secret service had some bikes specially built so they could ride along. Bikes had some custom built rear disc wheels that were designed to be bullet proof so they could use them as protective shields.
So if a Pueo or whatever gets given to President O', the secret service will want some bullet proof canoes.

Kevlar Paddles

Well they can get some specially made PFD's with kevlar lining and "kill plates" for the chest and back area. Install a rifle/sub machine gun mount on the back deck behind the seat.
The escort boat can have couple of .50 cal machine guns mounted front and back. Several Divers ready to go in the water if needed.
