Obama has to fly to Europe to find non-loony conservatives he can talk and joke around with with.

Obama jokes around with French president Nicolas Sarkozy (of the right-of-center Union for a Popular Movement party) and German chancellor Angela Merkel (of the right-of-center Christian Democratic Union of Germany party.)

Meanwhile in the US, Republican Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell still looks like a strange human/tortoise hybrid...


And Republican House minority leader John Boehner still looks like an archetypal angry redneck alcoholic wife-beater (emphasize only looks like)...


Note: to be fair top Dems Pelosi (Michael Jackson lookalike) and Reid (boring maths teacher) look quite weird too.
