Hey Maytag Man, When you are through with that can you fix our health care system?

OBAMA-taking amaricans to another level
ladder? what ladder?
Gloucester, MA
The guy on the ladder is obviously holding a loud speaker saying,
" Keg party, behind the congress building at 10, President Obama you better be there or be square".
Obama is so sure about the success of health care reform that he's wiling to stand under a ladder to prove it works.
Biden, what are you doing up the ladder? Get down here at once!
Next question....the gentleman from Home Depot.....
Los Gatos, CA
To decrease the national debt by saving on the price of his garments, Obama shrunk himself. It's a good example for all of us to follow. Cotton farmers however, are outraged.
We still can't reach the the deficit.
You know the economy is bad when the white house is using the same photographer as the local high school, all thats missing is the bucket of combs.
If I were you, I’d try again
Say Joe the Worker up there, can you go up the ladder and balance yourself on one foot at the top. I am trying to prove that universal health care is a must in this troubled times!
Is that a bald spot?

The Secret Service just spotted Scrat on the roof of the White House and prepare to take him out by whatever means are needed to get the job done!
haha suckers, I'll get the money shot from up here.
Not a good omen.............under a ladder and underinsured.
Obama: I don't think so... sir, don't mess with the teleprompter.
The Secret Service jusr spotted Scrat on the roof of the White House and prepare to take him out by whatever means are needed to get the job done!
Prez Obama 2 Sen DeMint, up on the ladder: "Be careful perched up there above the rest of us, Senator DeMint, you have adequate healthcare coverage should you fall but those of us beneath are not prepared due to a political Waterloo."

The economies so bad that even Vice President Biden had to take a second job at the White House.
My buddy Joe the Worker, the ladder and I will tour the country to prove Americans that we are deadly serious about health care reform!
" if i'm taller than everyone he's bound to pick me for a question! "
Hey, fella nothing is supposed to fly higher than the American flag.
Quick! Somebody call Rush to get a pig down here on the double!
