TOTUS visits the Magic Kingdom

I could say something about big ears and Goofy, but this just writes itself. Via Mediaite:

Obama Fantasyland

Another executive action by Obama shuts down Main Street. How ironic.

For those of us not typically in the public eye, it is easy to forget the importance of good optics and public relations for someone who is. For those who routinely forget, however, there arises, once in a while, a perfect reminder of why they exist in the form of a delightfully bad PR move by someone who really cannot afford it at the moment. Today’s PR miss comes from the Obama campaign, whose candidate is shutting down “Main Street USA” to give a speech — the “neighborhood” Main Street USA in Disney World, that is.

The substance of this story is not particularly exciting: President Obama will visit Orlando, Florida tomorrow — where many theme parks call home — to talk about the economy and boosting tourism to the region and generally across the country. The President has begun a series of executive actions to help the economy under the title “We Can’t Wait.” It is the process by which the President will undertake this mission on his itinerary that appears tailor-made for punchlines.

Money quote:

“Tourism is the number one service that we export.”

Yes, he seriously said that.
