Someone with my bad memory for dates really should be careful about griping about this. But really, Mr. President? Shouldn't he know what year we're in? (via New York)

Well, considering that he wouldn't do anything as gauche as write a personal check anymore, it's understandable that he'd be 3 years behind.

I think Sigmund Freud ought to call his office.  First, we have a whole John Hancock style thing going on.  Second, we have a guy whose signature seems to have been crafted and practiced from the age of seven.  Third, I see a pair of breasts.

Sorry.  I do.  Maybe that's my problem and not his, but given his personal history...I just...don't...think...so.

Forget that Mollie. Us aristocat snobs want to know 4 things:

(1) What kind of fountain pen?

(2) What kind of nib?

(3) What kind of ink?

(4) What kind of paper?

Ricochet?

 OK, I'm quibbling here, but I think it would be better stated "to commemerate the common heritage and common sacrifice of our nations", given his propensity for self-reference.

The man is an enigma wrapped in a conundrum inside a Mobius Strip.

Look more closely, AmishDude. What you actually see is a pair of boobs.

It looks to me as though the comment and the date were written by the First Lady.  Under that assumption it shows that the President will either sign a blank check or a bill without reading it (we'll find out after it's passed).

If I were a conspiracy theorist, I'd say he's very used to backdating documents.

Still wonder why Obama's handlers won't let him speak without a teleprompter?

I see a kidney and a bladder. Prostate issues?

Remember when he referred to "...all 58 states!"

Then there were the "Marine Corpsemen..." repeated several times.  Mark Steyn immortalized it, "The Four Corpsemen of the Obama-lips".

All you need to know about our narcissistic, self-involved, self-justifying, and self-adoring president is right there in his signature.

Other than that, Mr. Long, how did you enjoy the show?

At least he's dropped that smiley-face thing from the "O".

By the way, has he been drug-tested lately?  There's a certain coca flavor to his scrawl.

Yet another item to add to the long list entitled, "If A Republican President had done this...."   

Idea for snide mainstream media headline:  "Bush forgets what year it is: Is he up to the job?"  

Followed of course by endless jokes for the all the following week from Steven Colbert et al.

Maybe it's a Muslim thing - my Arab friend has a weird signature as well.

Ooo..ooo...you have a Muslim friend?  Can I borrow him for Diversity Day?

I'll trade you a Guatemalan...

 Seems to be a doodle of an embryo - maybe he's reaffirming his pro-choice cred.

Or maybe the giant first initials represent an ego big as all outdoors, one which assumes that everyone in the world knows his name and thus his initials suffice.  (Also explains why the family dog is named BO.)

Was he visiting the 57th state at the time?

Sorry, I've already got a Guatemalan.  Do you have any albino Eskimos or a bisexual Tibetan?

We're sorry, Mr. President... it's not you, it's us.

You'll have to forgive him.  It's hard to keep straight how many states there are versus how many varieties of Heinz sauce there are.
