Things are rolling along at the Windy City White House these days and one of the coolest things we've found is the White House's official Flickr page. For fans of the President, it offers a daily glimpse into the inner workings of the White House that have never been so readily available while opponents of the President will likely decry it as a propaganda move. Either way, we enjoyed flipping through the photos and thought we'd share a few of our favorites.

"For fans of the President, it offers a daily glimpse into the inner workings of the White House that have never been so readily available while opponents of the President will likely decry it as a propaganda move"
Fans of the president, as I am so far on many issues, also might consider this propaganda. Even Jesus had propaganda, and Lincoln, and FDR, after all. Just saying.
I guess you can rock in your chair without being scolded when you're The President.
ohmygoodness will someone please tell me what is going on in photo #7 with that PIRATE!?
Propaganda or not, I can't resist some of these photos. Like the kid rubbing Obama's head. Or him talking to a pirate. Love it.
The president is taking on the pirate problem face to face.
actually that photo was taken right before they walked hook and arm to the Rose Garden to sign a formal Presidential Cease Cannon Fire on "all international commercial maritime traffic including the coast of Somali,Kenya and the Gulf of Aden."!
Now onto the Middle East Peace!
What about the Straights of Malaka?
BDole in 84,
sorry for the delay, I’m reading the fine print now. The Pirates are allowed to police the Straights of Malaka and enter into a Stimulus dollar's Homeland Security contract to take over all life guard duties at Chicago and Illinois beaches this summer.
I keep looking at the photo of him tossing the football to himself. If my experience is anything to judge by, 10 seconds later he dropped the ball and knocked the red phone off its hook and had to call up some nations to apologize and blame it on the dog.
Barack...please... enough with the bowing...
HEYOOOOOO!!!!
is it just me or is barack obama kind of, like, awesome. no like really. I feel like one of my buddies has taken over the presidency. Did he ever hang out at rainbo?
I like the fact that he still bums cigarettes. PLAYA!
Gotta love the look Michelle is giving him here: http://chicagoist.com/2009/05/20/around_town_the_white_house.php?gallery0Pic=16#gallery
Also, the last shot we put up is a total Michael Corleone shot, no?
"I KNOW how to dig a hole, fool. Why don't you get over here and HELP us, Mr. I-Can't-Get-Dirty-Because-I'm-The-President"...
lol
Also he is totally burping in this photo

Leaning back in his chair, tossing a football indoors... it's worth being Prez so that nobody can tell you what to do!
The pirate pic was staged for use during his Correspondents' Dinner speech. I think it should be his official photo...
