So, Macho-Man POTUS trekked up an Alaskan glacier?
Impressive, huh?
Here’s the fawning headline:
Paring His Bucket List, Obama Relishes Hiking at an Alaskan Glacier
But, here’s the first line:
KENAI FJORDS NATIONAL PARK, Alaska — President Obama hiked alone up a gravel path toward Exit Glacier, gazing at a mass of flowing ice as it melted into the plain below….
…the president donned hiking boots, black slacks and a slate-gray athletic jacket and boarded a helicopter from Anchorage to Seward to hike to the glacier. Amid a landscape of mountain peaks, glacial lakes, moose and bears, Mr. Obama met up with the television star Bear Grylls for a crash course in wilderness survival techniques….
So, here is my suggestion for corrected headline:
Momjeans POTUS Hikes On Gravel Path. Also Goes Out For Cinnamon Rolls And Ice Cream!
H/T Weasel Zippers:
With USSS, doctor, military aide always nearby, a president doesn't need much survival training. Unless he's launched in AF-1 escape pod.

At Snow City Cafe in Anchorage, Pres Obama buys all the cinnamon rolls. Also walnut bread & muffins. Says: "Put a little sampler together."

Pres Obama ordered small coffee gelato – then said he might want cocoanut. He ends up getting a small scoop of each.

As I mentioned on a previous post, from here on out obama’s travel and the agenda he can come up with depends on what’s left on his taxpayer funded bucket list .
Kinda like the “Taxpayer Bucks-it List,” innit?
The only thing this colossal schmuck can hike are his mommy jeans. And that, just barely.
Who cares? Too bad he didn’t come up missing. Is that wrong of me? I’m just so over him. I’d rather Uncle Joe was in charge at this point. 🙁
Hey Kitten…Have you ever rooted for the glacier to break loose before now? Ever?
Looks more like standing around posing for pictures in the scrub brush.
Taking the positive symbolic view here. In 1968, the Harding Ice field was traversed for the first time. This glacier was the glacier that was was hiked down to exit the ice field. Hence the name, Exit Glacier. Prior to that, the name was Resurrection Glacier. When Obama exits, we will resurrect.
“…the president donned hiking boots, black slacks and a slate-gray athletic jacket and boarded a helicopter…”
Ugh! No wonder they had a cow when Bush had a flight suit on. Then you’ve got Knoller fawning over the Disaster in Chief’s selection of snacks — not on Michelle’s list of snacks good for the peasants. Oh, and the ad nauseam repetition of politicized science.
WARNING: When looking at the NYT, you are responsible for your own barf bag.
Cathode Rays, I think Knoller was mocking Bamster…
Really? That would be refreshing. Guess I’m so used to them and their god that I didn’t see it. If he was mocking Bamster, then he was mocking members of the media too. 🙂
He da MAN!! He da MAN!!!

Hey! Someone photoshopped my avatar! Oh the humanity. The humanity.
Why didn’t he go to AK around Christmas time, I mean the Holidays. It’s summer up there, of course the ice and snow is melting. Look at the bushes, they all green.
