From the Politico:  "Look, that's me!" – Obama, pointing out a big-eared man on a Egyptian tomb's hieroglyphics.

Problem is, he may very well believe it.

This just in, the words of President Obama, spoken in France:  " Mr. Obama said there must be 'tough diplomacy' with Tehran."

Well, that changes everything.  We're sure they're just shaking in their boots in Tehran.  After all, look at the history of Mr. Obama's toughness.

DEERFIELD, Ill., June 4 (UPI) -- Police in suburban Chicago said a man who recognized his wife grabbing a child's money in security camera footage identified her for authorities.
Deerfield, Ill., Deputy Police Chief Tom Keane said the man approached a patrol officer after recognizing his wife in the Baskin-Robbins security footage and told the officer that she was the culprit in the May 15 incident, the Chicago Tribune reported Thursday.

Do you think this will affect the marriage?

Social note:  The Obamas turn up in Paris this evening, but have declined a dinner invitation from the couple next door: the Sarkozys.  President Obama’s reluctance to spend more than minimum time with the French leader on his visit for the D-Day anniversary has come as an embarrassment to the Elysée Palace.

Well, let's see - he didn't arrange for Queen Elizabeth II to be invited to the D-Day ceremonies, he's clamped down hard on Israel, he's imposed new travel restrictions on people entering from Canada, and now he won't chow down with the French president.  I say it's high time the White House figured out a way to insult Australia.  Let's get with it.
