- abbeyroadeyes, on 06/01/2009, -1/+151I am glad these two world leaders finally had a chance to sit down and talk.
- waisosrs, on 06/01/2009, -2/+141Do what you want, ‘cause a pirate is free,
YOU ARE A PIRATE!
Yar har, fiddle di dee,
Being a pirate is alright to be,
Do what you want ‘cause a pirate is free,
You are a pirate! - papastout, on 06/01/2009, -3/+125That was the easy part. Now if he can get the Ninjas to show up for some negotiations, I will be impressed.
- ghaltmann, on 06/01/2009, -4/+96This needs an explanation badly.
- MacEnvy, on 06/02/2009, -0/+82There were 6 ninjas in that picture.
- RSMiller, on 06/01/2009, -8/+83Proof that Obama is reaching out to all religious faiths by meeting with a Flying Spaghetti Monster representative!
- mrgeekguy, on 06/01/2009, -2/+76I can tell it's fake by the parrot. It should be on his left shoulder.

"But as I said during the campaign, we can't just talk to our friends. As hard as it is, we also have to talk to our enemies, and I've begun to do exactly that," the President said in his speech."

- shadowth, on 06/01/2009, -8/+60Why was the kid not allowed to see the pirate movie?
'cause it's rated Aaarrrrr
Thank you, I'll be here all week. - romanboy, on 06/01/2009, -2/+49There was a ninja in the original picture, honest!
- O8SERVER, on 06/01/2009, -1/+45This looks like a Captain Morgan commercial.
- VenDrake, on 06/01/2009, -5/+43I can't believe that such a powerful man would break down and negotiate with the scum of the earth like that. Doesn't he know that millions of people idolize him? Well they did before he started negotiating with Obama anyway. Ninjas would never let us down like that.
- magneteye, on 06/01/2009, -2/+38Why does it take pirates so long to learn the alphabet? Because they can spend years at C!
- spritom, on 06/01/2009, -2/+38yarrrrrr!
- gforce051, on 06/02/2009, -0/+35I'm not convinced.. Someone post that link a few more times.
- americanoboy, on 06/01/2009, -5/+40obama's trying to appeal to his target audience: americans.
- Big1984Brother, on 06/01/2009, -0/+30Obama is probably thanking the pirate for helping to reverse global warming.
- macfan93, on 06/01/2009, -0/+30We've got us a map!

- chicoguzman, on 06/01/2009, -1/+25This (amazingly) is not a photoshop.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/whitehouse/3532377404 ... - Eldorian, on 06/01/2009, -2/+24Yeah, we all know that clearing brush in Crawford is a more effective way of business.
- DreKor, on 06/02/2009, -0/+21A map!
- ExoticKosher, on 06/02/2009, -0/+19That'll lead us to a hidden box!
- solmakou, on 06/01/2009, -2/+21I like the part where the ninja is hidden.
- jadambrinson, on 06/01/2009, -3/+22...except he didn't use the regular Air Force One 747 as his personal jet:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/8075618.stm
(Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't every plane the president fly on become Air Force One when he's on board? That might just be Hollywood teaching me US history, though.) - lostmessiah, on 06/02/2009, -1/+18Buried because you'd never see the ninja.
- ChaSchva, on 06/01/2009, -1/+16Noob Saibot!?
- TheBadWolf, on 06/01/2009, -2/+15You're right, public relations has absolutely nothing to do with running a country.
- Hartman27, on 06/02/2009, -0/+13Show up?...They're hiding in the bush on the fireplace mantel.
- HaSatan, on 06/01/2009, -0/+13We'll dig up the box, (the box!)
We know it's full of precious booty!
Burst open the locks!
And then we'll say hooray! - MacEnvy, on 06/02/2009, -0/+12They're still upset over him sinking Blackbeard's ship back in his early military days.
- merreborn, on 06/02/2009, -0/+12I didn't know the whitehouse had an official flickr photostream.
- leland1, on 06/01/2009, -0/+11Obviously, the pirate visitor to the White House is there to show his video to the president:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jbq_1Wy70rE - slash1890, on 06/02/2009, -3/+13WORST. COMMENT. EVER.
- MagicBobert, on 06/02/2009, -0/+10That's all locked up with locks!
- dscan, on 06/01/2009, -1/+11from the white house flickr:

Yeah, it's pretty cool. One of the minor cool things the Obama Administration seems to have changed. PR photos were always taken, but then they'd go out to the mainstream outlets, even though we were paying for an official WH photographer. Now we're at least getting em directly. It's small, but at least some low level staffer is trying to be a bit more open. - Denominator88, on 06/01/2009, -2/+12We'll brave the squalls and bust your balls, Somalian pirates we!

- lovemorgul, on 06/01/2009, -6/+14I suppose we're all too young to know it should be "Barry and the Pirates"?
- Halsfield, on 06/02/2009, -0/+8god help us
- whoaohh, on 06/02/2009, -1/+9This actually isn't a photoshop. Check it out!
http://www.flickr.com/photos/whitehouse/3532377404 ... - jspegele, on 06/01/2009, -1/+9Actually wasn't a shop. It was a staged photo for a joke at the white house press dinner last month. That's speech writer Cody Keenan.
