No, this is not an episode of “Being Biden,” which is certain to be some sort of audio sitcom. This is another entry into the sad, sad drama that is being President Obama. He’s a pretty friendly guy and he likes a good party, but he’s so, so lonely. If only he could put on a disguise and hang out in bars, he reportedly told Israel’s Channel 2.
Pres Obama tells #Israeli TV he fantacizes about disguise, fake mustache so he could go to a Tel Aviv Bar and chat with real people.

Just for fun, here’s one more from Politico’s Jennifer Epstein. This must be the president trying out the disguise kit before leaving the house.
