As Patricia Murphy noted earlier, President Obama dropped in on the Five Guys Restaurant today for some rapid nourishment (video here). He was accompanied by an NBC News film crew.
The subject of the President's trip came up at today's White House Press Briefing, where CBS' Mark Knoller cast a suspicious eye at the "day in the life" burger run, prompting a quick rejoinder from NBC's Chuck Todd:
Here's the video of the President's visit to Five Guys:
All kidding aside, I feel the need to speak out here. The President and Brian Williams ruined those burgers. There's only one right way to make a hamburger.
On the other hand, I have to give the President gastronomic props if those were, indeed, yummy pistachios he was snacking on.
I also predict that critics of the President will soon be posting Youtube videos of his polite refusal to sign autographs, with some fun conspiracy about how the President has been replaced by a double, whose signature would not have matched.
Equally certain is the future emergence of some kind of tipping story. You heard it here first.
Update: Confirmed - The President's favorite nut is the pistachio.
Its quite amazing! Barry asked the employee for his favorite burger and the employee asked Barrack for his birth certificate. Barry said thats a matter of nation security and asked for more mustard. Go figure the POTUSA can't show his BC to a tax PAYOR? Isn't America great!

So what do you think of Barry's latest quote to the Sheep? 05-27-09 " A democratic government accountable to the people must be as transparent as possible and must not withhold information for self-serving reasons or simply to avoid embarrassment." Yes, the messiah who continues to seal records from Hawaii,Kenya,Illinois,harvard,columbia and occidential. Quite a looser don't you think or not think independently?

jleinf...you do know the definition of insanity..saying the same thing over and over when it was already proven to be a lie. How ignorant you must be to think that he got this far without proof...he presented an original birth certificate and a judge already ruled it was legitimate. Your still drinking the republican kool aid. Don't you think McCain would have jumped all over this..he did not even pursue this because he knew is was a lie. Get over you lost and the best man one.
By the way do you carry your original birth certificate around with you?

You my friend are and idiot if you think anything political is legitimate under closed doors. And how much time,money and effort would it take for Barry to cough up the original and finish this BS. Maybe 2 days and 10 K instead of waterboarding people like me and wasting 1-2 million?

Umm Cheseburgers....Our current government is far more open, transparent, law abiding & has 2/3 Approval...
Unlike dick who propped up the least popular, highest borrowing, most disapproving and spendthrift illegal airheads of all time.
A Senate report revealed that former President George Bush and top-ranking officials in his administration approved harsh interrogation techniques that were later used in prisons at Guantanamo Bay and Abu Ghraib.
Former Brig. Gen. Karpinski claims soldiers convicted in the Abu Ghraib torture scandal were victims of scapegoating and had been merely obeying orders as is supported by the paper trail dating back to Pres. Bush illegal council; Gonzales!
Gonzo> Please agree that is it ok to torture, in violation of US Law, the US Army Field Manual and Geneva with paper trail memos beginning in the first Bush year in office.

So you are going to say that the bush admin. borrowed too much? Are you serious Obama has already borrowed more than he did in his entire presidency. Then you are going to talk about torture that still hasn't been stoped? These are some crazy double standards. By your standards for him to have not done his job at the end of the four years what would he have to do, declare the US a communist nation?

Pundit...you can see some of the pictures of what they did to these prisoners...I can't believe some of the cruelity. We always teach our children as I was always taught also that we Americans are the good guys. If you goodle Abu Ghraib you can see some of the pictures and then I went on the site to the right of the screen called Bogus Torture Cover Up and there were even more explicit photos of naked men with one photo showing a prisoner shoving something in his rectum...he is tied up with a sack over his head...not all of these men have been found guilty of being terrorists. I read an article where some of these people were turned in for revenge or reward..
I am shocked to see our military in this way. And then to read about the 4 soldiers who raped a 14yr girl and then murdered her and her family including a 6yr old...and then burned their bodies.
I thought stories about Vietnam were bad but...wow...all I can say is wow.

You dumb ass. Everyone in the Military is not like the ones that unfortunately did what they did in Abu Grhaib... You moron. For those that think Obama is all that great , I think this Country is going to crap. Obama can not have a speach without the teleprompter ( can not speak for himself ). He is a SOCIALIST,RACIST and full of himself. He wants a Racist in the Supreme Court.He wants control over the Banking Industry,private business etc. He makes demands on California not to lower Union and State pay or they could loose Federal funding ??? Who in the hell does he think he is. Oh ,he has to have the news with him every where he goes.He has dam near allready flown more then Bush did in a entire year on Airforce One ( only been in Office for 5 months ) He is making this great Country into a welfare state. He is printing more money to spend, He has outspent President Bush allready in 5 months....
Everyone of these Politicians need to be kicked out of Office,we need limitations on how long they can serve in Office.Noone should be able to serve a lifetime in Office,lets get some new people in there with new ideas,it is obvious the ones in there now are wrecking this Country.
Those that speak of we need CHANGE ?? Go back to school and learn how the Govt. works. A new President is only as powerfull as the House and the Senate. Bill Clinton was a good President because in 1996 he had a Republican controlled Congress... What happened to those Conservatives ??? Now the Republicans are acting like Democrats and the Democrats are acting like Socialist Liberals....
Our founding fathers are probabaly turning in their grave.... May God please help this Country in its time of turmoil... America get of WELFARE and get a dam job,the Govt is not here to provide for you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
