:evilgrin:

[redstate_democrat]

19. He would NEVER.

:P

[Catherina]

24. Oh YES HE WOULD!

:pretend I'm stamping my feet here:

:rofl:

[BlooInBloo]

20. OMG - just tried the Dove choc chip mint! It's my new fave!

Having a solid layer of chocolate on top is soooo FTW!

[Cha]

30. When I was in Jr High in Denver we walked home

after school and stopped at the creamery where I would get a mint chocochip and lemon custard ice cream.

Such a good combo :9

[Hawkeye-X]

34. Which one?

Marble Slab? Cold Stone? Dolly Madison?

[Cha]

36. Don't remember..doubt if it's still there.

It was Morey Jr High, though, in East Denver..such memories, sigh.

There was a bakery right next door where we first stopped to get long johns. I don't and can't eat like that anymore so the memories are even more delicious.

Have a good ol' patriotic time in all the "events" this summer:)

[That Is Quite Enough]

37. I love mint chocolate chip so much...

*Heads off to get some from his freezer*

[Bicoastal]

4. ICE CREAM? How effete and elitist!

He and Michelle should have chomped down on what REAL hardworking Americans eat on warm days--

--huge slabs of uncooked bacon-on-a-stick.

:P

[redstate_democrat]

7. lol

:D

[monmouth]

8. Dear God, my heart just sucked into itself...lol. The imagery is painful...n/t

[VolcanoJen]

10. Whatever

His advance staffers switched that ice cream bucket and replaced it with Green Tea Yogurt, and you know it.

:P

[Hippo_Tron]

35. I bet it was gelato

The super elitist version of ice cream.

[CreekDog]

6. lookie there, "Green Tea" ice cream!

[sandnsea]

[redstate_democrat]

14. This is too cute! I wonder if that little guy knows he's talking to the NEXT president!

[Diane R]

17. That photo needs to be added to the proposed "Obama and Kids' collection.

[Cha]

32. For some reason I love the pics with

Obama and the kids(babies too) collection the most.

Sample:)

[cliss]

23. So cute!

Just love the image.

[akbacchus_BC]

26. Could be but I am hoping the little guy is telling Senator Obama

what flavor ice cream he wants. Pictures like these are so endearing. Hope someone is keeping a record of these meet the babes pictures, they are awesome!

[bhikkhu]

15. That looks like a Norman Rockwell! Great pic!

[roguevalley]

28. he is so great with kids. these kids will never forget this and what

a piccie to show to the grandkids some day.

[Olney Blue]

11. Now there's a "decider" we can live with!

[billyoc]

12. Check out Michelle talking to the Green Party guy!

:rofl:

[4_Legs_Good]

16. He looks so serious about choosing the right ice cream

It must be weird to never buy ice cream alone.

33. Are you kidding? Picking ice cream is a tough decision..

one dip or two, cone or sundae, chocolate or vanilla?
Ice cream parlors are stressful..
:dilemma:

[Beregond2]

18. I don't know why, but I teared-up

looking at these shots. Maybe it's because hope is such a scary thing. It's been solong since we've had any. I look at this beautiful family, and I just well-up...

And you know what? They strike me as people that I really WOULD enjoy having a beer with!

[Bluenorthwest]

21. This is my neighborhood

I saw Michelle at the Obama campaign office when I went to return a DVD yesterday. It was hot, record breaking hot, and ice cream would have been lovely.

[TahitiNut]

22. It's "Prince Puckler's Ice Cream" ... good stuff.

:thumbsup:

[Catherina]

25. You fuckin elitist

Ok. Got me. I'm just joking.

:hi:

[bear425]

27. It's seren"dip"ity! I love mint chocolate chip! n/t

[Bensthename]

31. I feel sorry for the candidates..

Constant cameras and crowds in their face..

That would be hard for me being an introvert..

Great pics though..

[MagickMuffin]

38. What they didn't have Barack Obama's "Yes Pecan".........?.?.?

I looked at the grocer today for "Yes Pecan" and they didn't have it. I guess I'll have to put in a request, just like I did with "Americone Dream", they had plenty of Colbert's flavor.

My favorite combo is Mint and Black Cherry. Yum-YUM
