Jeans! :shrug:
















But maybe he should wear the latest style so he can satisfy the press!

10. Perhaps the President needs a bit more room, rather like LBJ
Those don't look to have a lot of package room in them, now, do they?

A walk down memory lane--I never tire of this: http://americanradioworks.publicradio.org/features/prestapes/lbj_haggar.html

LBJ: Uh huh. You all made me some real lightweight slacks, uh, that he just made up on his own and sent to me 3 or 4 months ago. There's a light brown and a light green, a rather soft green, a soft brown.

JH: Yes sir

LBJ: and they're real lightweight now and I need about six pairs for summer wear.

JH: yes sir

LBJ: I want a couple, maybe three of the light brown kind of a almost powder color like a powder on a ladies face. Then they were some green and some light pair, if you had a blue in that or a black, then I'd have one blue and one black. I need about six pairs to wear around in the evening when I come in from work

JH: yes sir

LBJ: I need...they're about a half a inch too tight in the waist.

JH: Do you recall sir the exact size, I just want to make sure we get them right for you

LBJ: No, I don't know - you all just guessed at 'em I think, some - wouldn't you the measurement there?

JH: we can find it for you

LBJ: well I can send you a pair. I want them half a inch larger in the waist than they were before except I want two or three inches of stuff left back in there so I can take them up. I vary ten or 15 pounds a month.

JH: alright sir

LBJ: So leave me at least two and a half, three inches in the back where I can let them out or take them up. And make these a half an inch bigger in the waist. And make the pockets at least an inch longer, my money, my knife, everything falls out - wait just a minute.

Operator: Would you hold on a minute please?



LBJ: Now the pockets, when you sit down, everything falls out, your money, your knife, everything, so I need at least another inch in the pockets. And another thing - the crotch, down where your nuts hang - is always a little too tight, so when you make them up, give me an inch that I can let out there, uh because they cut me, it's just like riding a wire fence. These are almost, these are the best I've had anywhere in the United States,

JH: Fine

LBJ: But, uh when I gain a little weight they cut me under there. So, leave me , you never do have much of margin there. See if you can't leave me an inch from where the zipper (burps) ends, round, under my, back to my bunghole, so I can let it out there if I need to. . . . .

....... and throw in the Kenyan booty (did I just say that?) and it also explains the pleated pants fixation .... but since this puts us into a visual realm I dont dare cross, perhaps it's a matter best left alone! lol

I'm gonna go read by Bible now.

.... thank you.

15. and fix the pockets so his knife doesn't fall out.....
..... I dont know what's funnier, the mental image of Barack Obama carrying a pocket knife or the KNOWLEDGE that LBJ did.

(He's the President? Why does he need a pocket knife? He's got a whole bunch of these guys standing around with nothing to do......)

16. Fellers carried pocket knives back then. It's just what you did.
It was always a good birthday or holiday gift, a nice pocket knife. And they did come in handy on occasion!

4. That last picture....
That poor guy looks like such an idiot. I have no idea who he is, but he looks like a "pull up you pants, fool" bozo.

And what's with the bandanna in the pocket? Is that some sort of romantic signal?

23. Gee. What a.... costume.
And the tattoos! I hate to say this, but that "artwork" looks like he got drunk and passed out cold and his buddies had some fun with a Sharpie all over him.

I'm terribly unimpressed, I'm afraid.

That said, I'm sure he doesn't give a shit what I think. I'm not in his target demographic!

7. And I'm sorry, but this is NOT the change I voted for....


.... seriously! No wonder his approval numbers are in the tank! How can you defend pants like that!

If I wanted an President in old pants, I would have voted for McCain! :p
