They are both as dogs as any other men :P
 
I don't get it. What does that photo have to do with Obama?

Edit: Never mind, I see him now.

Obama's just better at using his peripherals :biggrin:

Seriously though, I think the video helps show that it wasn't Obama doing the drooling...

And what if he was doing the drooling ? I wouldn't think it diminishes him - rather, it would endear him to most ordinary people, who, are likely to do some drooling themselves.

He's a man, damn it ! It's programmed in him to notice nice femmie flesh !

This is nothing compared to Berlusconi :smile:

Promising to put family values at the centre of his campaign:

"I will try to meet your expectations, and I promise from now on, two-and-a-half months of absolute sexual abstinence, until [election day on] 9 April."

At the Brussels summit, at the end of Italy's EU presidency, in December 2003:

"Let's talk about football and women." (Turning to four-times-married German Chancellor, Gerhard Schroeder.) "Gerhard, why don't you start?"

On Italian secretaries (comments made at the New York stock exchange):

"Italy is now a great country to invest in... today we have fewer communists and those who are still there deny having been one. Another reason to invest in Italy is that we have beautiful secretaries... superb girls."

Ahhh, but while it's up... the old "lizard brain" fights for control. Good men restrain themselves, but few men won't look if they can get away with it.
