Keep in mind that ol’ Rutherford B. was the initial occupant of the Resolute Desk.

    Never mind that it’s the Resolute Desk. Putting the sole of your shoe, and God knows where it’s been, on any desk is just nasty.

    The most unable man to use that office.

    I’m surprised they aren’t generating power at Mount Vernon by now.

    I can’t believe he has his foot (much less his shoe) on that beautiful, very old, piece of history. No respect…….

    Who stands like that? I mean my whole life and a lifetime of watching other people in offices with desks everywhere. I HAVE NEVER, EVER seen anyone stand like that.
    Combined with the disrespect of the office well it is just plain weird. Obama is an alien to the office and to American principles how did we elect this man.

    It’s another slam against the Brits. Queen Victoria gave President Hayes that desk.

    I’ve seen sailors on the lifelines of a ship assume a similar pose, with the arms leaning down. Also, cowboys on a fence.
    Strong concur that, for a leader of the free world pose, it’s as stiff and artificial as anything else from #OccupyResoluteDesk.

    .@smitty_one_each There are a number of numbskulls taking it entirely seriously as if the desk were Jesus’ nightstand or something.

    Obviously, his mother didn’t care enough to teach him to keep his feet off of the furniture. Sure, wipe your shoes on a priceless antique. What difference does it make, anyway? I spit on his golf clubs.
