The Funniest Moments From the 2013 White House Correspondents' Dinner

The annual White House Correspondents' dinner took place this past weekend, and it was a delight. We honestly think it was probably the best performance at one of these dinners since Stephen Colbert roasted George W. Bush right in front of him (this makes us cringe a little bit less though). Only we aren't talking about Conan O'Brien -- we're talking about President Obama, who really hammed it up this year.

Steven Spielberg Debuts New 'Obama' Footage at White House Correspondents' Dinner…Wait, What?

While 'Lincoln' might not have taken home the Oscar for Best Picture, it was considered one of the best films of the year by many a critic, mainly for Daniel Day-Lewis' exceptional performance as Honest Abe. In light of the film's success, what is its director Steven Spielberg planning as a follow-up?

During Saturday's White House Correspondents' Dinner, President Barack Obama revealed the first behind-the-scenes footage from Spielberg's next project, 'Obama,' which re-teams him with...Day-Lewis in the title role? Take a look...

Jaden Smith Says President Obama Told Him Aliens Are Real

Because the main person you should trust with secrets of national and planetary security is Will Smith (especially when he's on his way to a barbecue), we're actually not too shocked at the fact that his son, Jaden Smith, says President Barack Obama told him about aliens.

Photo of Obama Playing With Tiny Spider-Man Charms the Web

Fine. Time magazine was right – Barack Obama is the Person of the Year. We can’t argue with this photo, which was taken back in October. The kid dressed up as Spider-Man is one of President Obama’s staffer’s kids. So no real threat was posed, whichÂ we guessÂ explains why the Secret Service isn’t taking him down. [...]

Facebook Helps President Obama Pardon Two Turkeys

After a neck and neck online competition, President Obama today granted pardon to two turkeys, Cobbler and Gobbler. Cobbler, who likes eating cranberries and listening to Carly Simon, narrowly beat out Gobbler, the corn-eating turkey who loves bluegrass. (The voting took place via Facebook poll.) President Obama named Gobbler as Cobbler’s “alternate.” The pair will [...]

The Best of 'The Prez Is Not Impressed' Tumblr

Pres. Barack Obama can't just pose with McKayla Maroney, make a silly face, and expect it NOT to turn into a Tumblr. Or, he can, but that would be foolish. The President Is Not Impressed is pretty much just like the McKayla Maroney Is Not Impressed from this summer, only it's the president instead. What sort of things and people is the president disappointed in? Let's find out!

Obama and Mckayla Maroney Are Very Disappointed In… Something

Dan Seitz — Sat, 17 Nov 2012 17:00:45 +0000

President Obama met with the 2012 United States Olympic Gymnastics Team and… well… you can see what happened for yourself. Maroney was, of course, first captured making the infamous face while observing someone else taking the gold medal in the vault. Maroney has nothing to be embarrassed about: She got a silver medal with a [...]

Even if you weren’t hoping for Obama to win reelection this week, you have to admit that he seems very grateful he did. We can tell because he started crying in front of a bunch of people. While thanking his campaign staff and telling them how wonderful they are, a lonely teardrop began its course [...]
