Speaking with 60 Minutes' Steve Kroft for an interview scheduled to air tonight, President Obama criticized GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney for politicizing the deadly consulate attack in Benghazi with incorrect claims.

Look no one's saying President Obama is responsible for 9/11, but his detractors are saying some other things of questionable logic.

Scott Van Duzer, the Florida pizza shop owner who brought smiles to the faces of many when he gave President Obama a feet-sweeping hug yesterday, told Politico that his business is facing boycott threats from individuals upset over the affection he showed POTUS.

President Obama went on Orlando's Power 953 early this morning to debate, among other things, how hip is daughters are and unregistered voter Nicki Minaj's claim that she's "a republican, voting for Mitt Romney."

Doug Mills of the New York Times tweeted this photo of Barack Obama getting lifted in the air by Big Apple Pizza owner (and bear hug enthusiast) Scott Van Duzer.

After President Obama's speech at the DNC last night, the White House's social media team sent out some predictable tweets, one of which caught Lohan's eye, so she responded with the above tweet.

As you may have heard last night, Osama bin Laden is dead, has perished from the earth, is at the bottom of the sea, and is not better off than he was four years ago. The Democrats are trying to pull a Bush on national security, inflating Obama's reputation as a killing machine and portraying Mitt Romney as a bungling softie.

While accepting his party's nomination for President of the United States, Barack Obama defended his record of doing things and renewed his commitment to doing things in the future. If elected, we can be assured of four more years of things. He also has people killed.

Sure, President Obama may not have kept all the promises he made, but he didn't not keep the promises he didn't make either. So there's that.

A series of poorly thought-out tweets landed a North Carolina man behind bars after he was picked up by the Secret Service for threatening to assassinate the president.

CHARLOTTE, N.C.— Bill Clinton's interminable speech last night here at the Time Warner Cable Arena certainly had the room going (though there was a noticeable lag in energy from minutes 457 through 588). It was probably a little tougher to take for anyone who had in hand a printed copy—small type, two columns, two pages, front-and-back—provided to the press by eager young DNC assistants. Thumbing through at what I thought was the speech's crescendo, I quickly realized that he was less than a third of the way through, and started wondering whether or not our parking lot closed at midnight.

Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, who have been hard at work to repair their strained relationship, shared a tender embrace tonight after Clinton's blockbuster 49 minute, 10 second speech at the DNC.

Greetings from the Democratic National Convention in horrible Charlotte, North Carolina, where your humble correspondents were just penned like dogs with a mass of humanity while waiting for fire marshals or some such to approve our entrance. Hamilton Nolan, myself, and SPECIAL GUEST AND GAWKER EMERITA Ana Marie Cox of the Guardian are here to liveblog this magical night for you. Let's begin.

Barack Obama's DNC speech tomorrow will be given indoors, not in a football stadium, due to "severe weather forecasts."

The White House released this photo of Barack Obama and daughters, Sasha and Malia, watching Michelle Obama deliver her speech at the Democratic National Convention.

This is officially the gayest convention ever: the Democratic National Convention has a record number of LGBT delegates.

Hoping to counter the "bad name" Clint Eastwood gave "to older Americans everywhere with his absurd and awkward-to-watch introduction of Governor Romney" at last week's Republican National Convention, an ever-growing number of Internet users hope to convince the Democratic powers-that-be to let Betty White introduce President Obama at this week's Democratic National Convention.

Uh oh. Haley Barbour is writing slash fic again! The ex-Mississippi governor, who is totally not racist, recently expressed his wish for New Jersey governor Chris Christie to poke the president of the United States, in the butt area:

In a "public service announcement" posted on YouTube over the weekend, formerly beloved action hero Chuck Norris and his wife Gena don't mince words in their warning to evangelical Christians that allowing President Obama to be re-elected would mean certain gloom and doom of apocalyptic proportions.

Is Barack Obama finally embracing stoner comedy?
