Obama: I'm not 'getting fresh or anything'
[cnn-photo-caption image= http://i.cdn.turner.com/cnn/2008/images/04/10/art.obamaind.ap.jpg caption=" Obama campaigned in Indiana Thursday."](CNN) - Barack Obama appeared to have a bit of an awkward moment on the campaign trail in South Bend, Indiana.
From the pool report:
"[Obama] posed for report pictures with the staff when he apparently felt his phone start to vibrate in his pocket on his right thigh – against which one woman was closely pressed.
"Now that’s my phone buzzing there," he said, drawing a laugh. "I don’t want you to think I’m getting fresh or anything."

He's not even in office and already the ladies are lining up. Shades of Bill Clinton. At least with McCain we don't have to worry about hanky panky in the Whitehouse.
Now that Republicans voted to get Barak on the Ticket and that Witch of Hillary is almost done, We can go on to win in November.
And all the time you thought that we wanted Hillary? Nope, Obama will do just fine. McCain and THE AMERICAN Patriots will make sure that he is not our next President.
Democats's blew another one that they had in the bag.
LOL, he pulled a Clinton on that chick....
How is that an "awkward moment"? It was Funny.
fesh with hiary
Now, let us talk about "a topic". I read a condensed biography
on Obama last evening on the Internet and it was really interesting.
Obama helped the poor and disadvantaged most of his career.
He is a good man and he is very smart. He could have used his
"earned" degree to be a lawyer but he chose to be in the business
to stand up for the little guy. A GOOD READ FOR ANY ONE who
may have doubts about Obamaman. He don't lie. He don't trash
people. And he cares about the American people. And, Hannity
and Rove, he is very patriotic. Read it Hannity, the Obama basher
Read it Rove, the dispicable man who is very comfortable bashing
anyone that is not a Republican, although he seem to like Hillary
a whole bunch.
Maybe the call was from Wal-Mart asking him to be on the board of directors and bust the unions; oh, wait ......
We need this man in the white house like we need a toothache! Has anyone read his book? Dreams,, this is one messed up guy. kinda sad.
🙂 Funny !
This "story" is only enlightening in that it provides a forum for people like poster Brad to spew a kind hatred and ignorance uglier than I ever get to witness in my everyday life. Thanks, Brad, for reminding me that there are people like you in this world. We still have so far to go.
Why are you allowing hateful postings such as "Brad" ( "Yeah right ! You can pose for the Media but not some white guy who only wanted a photo for his wife. What a disgrace. Go on and go see your Grandma, see if you can scare her because you're a black man . America needs to throw this brother in front of the Bus not under.")
on CNN blogs?
Come on people, it wasn’t that funny. You want funny, then let’s elect Jay Leno.
He's definitely "fresh" - a sorely needed breath of fresh air!
Obama nay-sayers need to get over themselves and their issues.
Godspeed, Sen. Obama - all the way to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.!
Brad and LA504:
Are you kidding me? What is wrong with you? This is a bit of fun, positive news and you guys act like it's the end of the world.
There is one way for you two to get instant gratification. If you are so tired of all the positive news, STOP WATCHING IT!.
I'm sure Hillary will have something negative for you soon, don't worry
Hey brad, that white guy was a stalker. Did you see him? "oh oh, pleeeeeeeeeeeze take a picture with me! pleeeeeeeeeze!"
He wanted Obama to get fresh with him. Much as I do. I'm totally gay for Obama. He's clearly the best choice.
But even if he's not in your opinion. Isn't it just fun to have a guy like Obama around. This is so much fun. The system doesn't work and it never will. So let's just elect this guy and have some fun for a change. He's like a party favor. "Hey look world! We're not complete morons after all! Here's our gift to you for acting like such dillweeds for the past eight years and allowing an idiot to make a mockery of our country!" Gobama. It's fun, all the little idioms you can make out of his name. That's enough reason for me to vote for him. Take a hike.
This shows the tight rope these people need to walk, thanks, mostly to Hillary's husband and the times we live in.
It is also good to see a bit of humor injected into what seems like a never-ending primary season...
What's the story. Do we have to report everything that happens. It's so pitiful.
So if Senator Clinton was getting as much airtime on CNN as Obama the lead would not be close at all. When will CNN give her 40 minutes to talk about anything. I watched in horror that speech that obama gave on race and was mortified that he thinks we are all stupid. I was also mortified when i watched a pundit on the Situation Room Say Clintons voters were just unwilling to vote for a black man. How about this...maybe we are just unwilling to vote for an unqualified candidate. How dare Blitzer not call this guy out on his comments. He just stood there, as usual, like a deer caught in headlights.
Hillary 2008
Thats Obama Humor!!!!!!
That's presidential?
Great Job Obama lol Nice damage control
Now only if we could've gotten Bill Clinton to just keep it like that maybe he could've avoided empeachment lol
HA! That's hilarious!
So now WHAT??????? Is this going to be blasted all over the news , radio & papers? With all the problems that is going on now. You have nothing bettter than to report. SHAME ON YOU and the rest of the media.
MAYBE HE IS INTERESTED IN THE WOMAN
MICHELLE OBAMA IS NOT GOOD ANYMORE
Obama was thinking: I am keeping the getting fresh for the White House interns.
THIS IS FUNNY BUT NOT NEWS.
FOR THE ONES WHO WENT EWWW... YOUR GROSS.. PERVERT! ARE YOU LIKE FIVE? GROW UP AND GET A SENSE OF HUMOR. IT'S NOT THE 50'S HERE.
