Mistakes were made

Like many Americans today I felt a twinge when I heard that Presdent Obama made a gaffe with is teleprompter.

Yeah it was relatively embarassing (not like Bush). But images like this arent helpful or condusive to reconcilliation:

I'm not entirely sure, but I think that pic may be 'shopped.

Either way, 1138 is totally going to flip out when he sees it.

Just remeber its not me saying it. What I am saying is that pictures like this are not appropriate in these trying economic times.

huh? why would this old picture of you back when you had a bad hair cut be significant as regards the trying economic times? I feel I'm missing the point somehow. Or do you really think the public's confidence is so fragile that even a very marginal celebrity such as your-self, when portrayed with a bad hair cut, represents the proverbial straw? I'm sure all of us have, at one time or another, wore something stupid or had a lousy hair cut. It's not the end of the world or of the stockmarket. Relax dude.
