Teddy Bears are up in arms no stimulus money provided to further study of bears dna and over the behind their backs handling by the President.
In times like these, one teddy bear is not enough!
Good Day Anderson:
Has anyone in the media or security considered the possibility that the swine flue could have come from an alternate source (i.e. man released by our enemy). as an act of terror specifically by the Taliban or Terrorist organization wanting to bring down our middle class? Funny jthat this happened right as President Obama turned in his report for 100 days in office.
Just asking
Corrected spelling:
One of them is named ‘Efrem’, the other is named ‘Zimbalist’.
I don't mean to be a Teddy Bear snob, but these aren't Build-A-Bear.
Hey! Where's my bear!
Do the Bears also have swine flu?
Thanks like we did not have enough Teddy Bears at the White House. I believe there are still a gazillion from the Roosevelt Administration.
They are made in China, so they can legally spy on my daughters without violating domestic surveillance laws.
I said i'd get more offiers for the border and heres the first two.
After 100 days in office, President Obama is through with speeches and has resorted to ventriloquism.
And to all recently released prisoners we have the lovely parting gifts of two standard (cough) non bugged (cough) FBI Issue Teddy Bears.
Glad you are teddy bears!
'Bearly' 100 days in office, Obama introduces his newest cabinet picks
Why does all my troubles come in twos. Two wars, two failing car companies and now two spying teddy bears!
Janice Lemon collinsville OK
Glad you are teddy bears! Could be teddy swine!
In an effort to boost the economy, President Obama is now taking bets on which bear Bo destroys first.
Obama introduces the cabinet members that authorized the Manhattan fly-by.
Perhaps no stuffed animals were named after me, but maybe I can still convince someone to do so!

"Hey thanks,They'll love them! You got two more for Papa Bear and Mama Bear?"
Guess if this job doesn't work out, I can always join the Muppets!!!
I am proud to announce that these bears were rescued from FAO Schwarz.
"Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid are just a couple of teddy bears!"

Herbert Hoover promised "A chicken in every pot and two cars in every garage". The legacy of J Edgar Hoover is a wire tap on every phone and two nanny cams in every bedroom.
Look what happens after you waterboard them 250 times!
If Bo starts barking at them, little FBI agents will jump out of them and arrest him!
Speaking of bears....You know this Swine flu is starting to become unbearable....
It`s torture that I can`t have these myself. I would sleep like a baby with a teddy bear by my head.
One of them is named 'Efrem', the other is named 'Zimbaist'.
My plan for diplomacy: FREE TEDDY BEARS FOR EVERYONE!
Tell the girls to put the green one in the Oval office and the red one in the dining room. They'll look pretty there. tee hee tee hee
Yes, we live in red states and blue states but, at the end of the day, don't we all just want to be cuddled?
One for Anderson Cooper, and one for Erica!

Going once! Going twice! Sold to the lady in the green jacket!! Boy!!! Its tough in this economy!!!!
I hope this isn't supposed to be a reference to our current stock market.
Come on Obama, just grin and bear it.

I had two hands before I got the swine flu....
President Obama unveils his kinder/gentler approach to surveillance, the teddy bear terrorist-cam.
Are these the same bears that screwed up Wall Street?
Obama holding up the second prize for last years election.
I don't think holding up two bears is a good idea considering the current stock market!

I'm President of the United States and all I got from the FBI is these two lousy teddy bears! What does it take to get the VIP tour and security clearance around here?
Mr. Mueller has assured me that these teddy bears have been completely vetted and furthermore have tested negative for the swine flu.
Now Bo has two serious competitors !
Now I'm pleased to introduce my two children, or are they ?
Actually I was hopeing for a secret decoder ring, and invisible writing pen.
Now I'm sure my nightmares will be over
It's a good thing they didn't give me the J. Edger Hoover dolls
I wonder which one Bo will chew on first: the red or the blue one?
I just hope the girls don't relize they come with built in camera and micraphone.
