The President responds to a potential fire in the White House like a boss.

Courtesy of the YouTube page:  

President Obama stops in the middle of his remarks at the White House Science Fair to call attention to a burning smell in the room. Obama jokes that the last time there was a fire at the White House "the British were invading."

Too cool for school.

    That last line was news to Palin. "The British burned the White House?"

      1400 Pennsylvania Avenue was never the same! If it wasn't for Paul Revere and The Raiders ringing those bells, they would have never found McWalnuts chained in the basement!

      There's a great song about the Canadians burning down the White House in 1812 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7jlFZhprU4

    Wow! I love and respect the POTUS! He is the only person, living or deceased who I would like to meet! I would like to shake his hand and thank him for his service to our country.

    I can only imagine President Palin in that situation..."I smell smoke, can somebody see if one of my kids is token' or free basen'? If anything erupts, I will lead everyone out, so, ME first, k? Last time this happened, Paul Revere and the Raiders were performin' at the White House! "

    Oh, yeah. Hey, Sarah, let's talk about the War of 1812. The Star-Spangled Banner. Dolley Madison. John Paul Jones.You pick which one you'd like to discuss first. The British -- you know, the country where Queen Elizabeth is President.

    Gryphen, I am officially announcing my endorsement of Canada's favorite son Theodoric "Ted" Cruz to be the next presdient of The United States of Amercia (and Selected Parts of Canada, also too) based on his moving disclosure today that in the emotional aftermath of the 9/11 attacks on NYC and Washington DC, he made the personal sacrifice of listening to country music because the Navy Seals apparently turned down his application to serve as a member of that elite special forces corps.

    His actions makes me realize that a courageous and semi-handsome severe conservative patriot like Ted will help ensure that I won't ever have to listen to country music even if, doG forbid, our nation is attacked again.

      Yeah, all the good songs about lovin' murika come with a twang.
      Personally, I will take, "what's going on" or "war".

      You guys are awesome! C4pers are using every trick to reverse our damage!

      Sp69:She's down big time right now....something like 36%-64%. Clear out your browser history and cookies and vote again. We can't possibly let the Paul-bots beat us. It's ridiculous that they put Palin against Paul. If she loses this one....her name doesn't go on to the final 4. They should have put her up against Walker or Brewer.

  9. Even with the mantle of first female president, and with cool Bill by your side, you've got a very tough act to follow, Hills.

  12. If he'd been POTUS during the War of 1812, undoubtedly President Obama would have grabbed the Gilbert Stuart portrait of George Washington and tucked it under his arm on the way out the door of the White House!

      And Sarah Palin would say if she had been POTUS during the War of 1812, she would have grabbed the portrait of George Washington by Gilbert O'Sullivan and tucked it under her arms on the way out the White House door.

    What a mind! He calmly assess the problem, gives instructions in case it becomes serious, then cracks a good joke to relieve any tensions.
    That's textbook genius at work!
