In the middle of a speech today on, uh, Gay Rights maybe, President Obama was interrupted by a duck. It was someone's ringtone, apparently.

Only last week, the socialist press was fawning over Obama's healthcare plan and Brian Williams was sleeping in Obama's bed. But now the backlash is winding up, and people are starting to notice that Barack Obama plays golf.

Maria Belen Chapur released a statement tonight to clear up some misconceptions about her, but didn't deny that she's been boning Mark Sanford, which is, according to Rush Limbaugh, all Barack Obama's fault (No, seriously, he really said that!).

While you're out this morning at brunch, mumbling semi-coherent thoughts about how amazing the citizens of Iran are, people somewhere will be fighting for change, actually doing something to alter the course of history! Nope, not Iranians. Hondurans! Viva?

It's getting so you can't throw a dead cat in this city without hitting something that says "Obama" on it.

Have you murdered or slept with someone you shouldn't have? Are you being forced to release some documents you totally don't want to? Do it right now. You'll never have a better opportunity.

Last night the Brooklyn Cyclones, a minor league affiliate of the New York Mets, transformed into the "Baracklyn Cyclones" to honor Barack Obama in "a night of patriotic partying at the ballpark." Some Cyclone fans were not pleased.

The Huffington Post came up with a great gimmick to get its blogger called on at today's press conference. And the White House came up with a great gimmick to look responsive to the people of Iran. Everybody wins.

We thought we'd read nothing worse today than Kathryn Jean Lopez's op-ed on John Ensign's affair. But then we read her NRO colleague Andy McCarthy on how Obama is totally an Islamist Fundamentalist!

Hillary Clinton broke her elbow last Wednesday at the State Department and underwent surgery on Friday. Today she canceled plans to travel to Italy and Greece for a series of meetings on Iran and the Middle East since she's still recovering from surgery. Clinton's injury, however, didn't stop her from putting on a brave face and appearing at the White House today for meetings with President Obama. Nor, it seems, did it stop the president's official photographer from snapping photos of the injured secretary of state and uploading them to Flickr either. [White House@Flickr, Washington Post]

President Barack Obama weighed in today on the chaos going down in Iran tonight via released statement. The message to the ruling government is pretty clear: you're going about this the wrong way, and you need to stop. Right now.

John Hodgman nailed an utterly hysterical speech to President Obama at the Radio and Television Correspondents dinner yesterday, slagging on media for a while, before hopefully designating Obama as our first nerd president. Obama's Vulcan salute after the jump.

We smelled a story when we read that Bo's favorite food is tomatoes, but we had no idea how deep it went. Not long after we started sniffing it out the whole tissue of lies unraveled.

Matt Drudge linking to a story about Obama's personal doctor criticizing his healthcare plan, which is funny and fits perfectly into the right-wing anti-Obama narrative of the terrors of "socialized medicine." Except Obama's doctor actually wants socialized medicine. Whatever.

Hmmmm, just what is Senator Tom Coburn suggesting, here, with his statement to a constituent about making sure "political candidates are eligible for the offices they seek"? Oh, right, he is appeasing a lunatic "birther."

Because PETA doesn't mind looking ridiculous in exchange for PR, they're protesting Obama's ninja-like fly-killing.

George W. Bush spoke critically of Barack Obama in a Washington Times story being pushed hard by Drudge tonight, a story so big and important that the Times didn't bother to insert quotation marks before posting it to their website.

Well what the heck is going on with the Obama White House? Those pansy-ass liberals are just falling apart over there! First Sonia Sotomayor breaks her ankle at the airport (Who does that?!) and now Hillary has fractured her elbow.

In an effort to prevent some of the events that led to the financial crisis in the future, the White House will unveil a sweeping overhaul of the nation's financial regulatory system tomorrow. Suck it Wall Street!
