Apparently the "empty chair" routine by Clint Eastwood at the Republican National Convention really struck a nerve with Barack Obama and his team. Shortly after the speech, Obama tweeted a picture of himself in his presidential chair with the line, "This seat's taken." But what's he thinking? Jump in and give us your best caption. Keep it clean and have some fun!

…hey guys, I’m taking this chair with me on Jan 20,2013. I hope there’s no detailed inventory of all the historical stuff here in the WH cause me and my ChiTown thugs is takin’ everything! Gonna open up Moochelle Pawn Shop. Think I’ll put that painting of Abe above my fireplace and the one of GWB above the commode. I’ll issue an executive order exempting us from prosecution for the burglary.

I’m instructing all of you and the Secret Service to keep Clint out of this office after I lose on November 6 – I don’t want him talking to this chair!
September 1, 2012 @ 2:03 pm
No empty chair, just empty suit.
Whne the music stops in November this chair WILL be empty.
September 1, 2012 @ 9:35 pm
Ooops I think I sat on Joe! Oh well, I’m done with him anyway.
September 3, 2012 @ 8:45 am
So I look like a chimp—this running-the-government thing is all monkey business anyway, right? Any banana-brain can do it.
September 3, 2012 @ 9:56 pm
This chair back isn’t high enough to accurately reflect the situation Obama has gotten himself into as President of the USA ….. you see …. the job is just so way over his head …..
September 1, 2012 @ 8:41 am
Even with Ozero in the Chair-in-chief ——
Lo and Behold the Chair is still EMPTY.
September 1, 2012 @ 2:06 pm
10-4 Agree totally. No country can run on autopilot.
September 2, 2012 @ 4:13 pm
Hey, where is the flush handle on this thing-It is full ****!
September 1, 2012 @ 9:05 am
Barry, you’re just a small time organizer who just got lucky. So, do you still feel lucky, punk?
September 1, 2012 @ 9:07 am
Sorry Mr. Obama, you’re about to get bumped back to coach!
September 1, 2012 @ 9:07 am
“You didn’t earn that seat” “I’m sorry sir, but your ticket for that seat has expired”
September 1, 2012 @ 9:23 am
Pay up or go to jail!
September 1, 2012 @ 2:08 pm
Wonder what the taxpayers paid for the chair.
September 1, 2012 @ 9:08 am
The imposter in chair…
September 1, 2012 @ 9:18 am
“My Chair” I’m taking it with me.
September 1, 2012 @ 1:00 pm
“My chair, and I’m keeping it!” (We have already had indications about his desire to dismantle the Constitution and the 2-term policy. Mr. Obama is obviously a man who hopes Americans will not care enough about our families, our freedom, or our future. Thank you Governor Romney for your commitment to America!)

The picture was taken from the back in order to conceal the bib and spill tray.
It’s unfortunate that so many people were fooled into voting for this national embarrassment. Anyone who can be fooled into voting for him again is a fool and in need of a full time guardian. WOW, he gave the authorization to take out Osama Bin Laden. I bet he lost a significant amount of sleep over having to make that decision. He sure didn’t look presidential in the picture taken of him and his staff watching the Bin Laden raid from the situation room.
September 1, 2012 @ 9:22 am
Mr. Obama, the chair is as empty as your broken promises.
September 1, 2012 @ 9:22 am
“Man’s got to know his limits. For you, Mr. Obama, it’s 4 years and $5 Trillion more debt.”
September 1, 2012 @ 10:02 am
How much of that is to pay for two undeclared wars, Medicare Part D, unnecessary tax cuts and the interest on them … in essence, how much is actually his? Far less than one-half of the amount.
September 1, 2012 @ 11:52 am
@Brierebear; The amounts attributable to Bush and PRIOR Presidents is included in the $10 to $11 Trillion that was excluded from the $5 Trillion I mentioned. The current total has recently exceeded $16 Trillion, during the RNC Convention.
“Far less than one-half the amount” is a lie. Get your facts straight.
Further, let me ask you how much of the current $16 Trillion debt is attributable to Medicare, Social Security, etc, and other entitlement started by Roosevelt, Johnson, etc.? The $5 Trillion debt incurred by Obama’s administration will be paid over time, not in his four years in office. ( Note that I said four years in office. ) The Republicans have been doing their best to block any further debt since the 2010 Election.
Clint once said “Man’s got to know his limitations”, and The Republican Congress has been schooling Obama on this matter since January, 2011.
September 1, 2012 @ 9:28 am
…for 66 more days – Then, we have what is called a private ballot election, you know, the one you support dropping, Obama…. it’s also the part most employees don’t want to acknowledge — If they’re doing a terrible job, they WILL be replaced!
And isn’t everyone proud of me? I kept it clean.. could’ve done so much with this!
September 1, 2012 @ 9:28 am
seat may be taken but the suit is empty
September 1, 2012 @ 9:29 am
“This chair’s sure a lot more comfortable than that one Eastwood had me in.”
September 1, 2012 @ 9:29 am
As Obama said , ” this throne is taken ” now if I could just find the roll ……
September 1, 2012 @ 2:14 pm
Hey Jay, get me a roll of those new bills we just printed. Tell’em next time to use a softer tissue. Also, tell’em to change the ink from green to brown. Like UPS, think what brown can do for you! Get me 2 rolls of brown and one white.
September 2, 2012 @ 4:06 pm
Is this chair electric by chance?

Retirement deserves a chaise longue. Besides, that business chair won’t fit in a golf cart!

No, Michelle, by ME!. And make sure you tell Valerie too!
September 1, 2012 @ 9:41 am
Names Soetoro, Barry Soetoro. I prefer my
seat taken not earned.
