Barska binos.......really?

[couesbitten]

Was reading an article about Obama in South Korea, and noticed that he was looking through a pair of Barska binos. To me it's sad that when the President needed a pair of binos, someone handed him those.

I guess that shows what someone thinks of him.   

I know I wouldn't hand him my Leicas or my Swarovskis (if I owned any).

Heck I wouldn't even loan him the Vortex or Pentax binos I do own.

   Exactly, I wouldn't hand him my Leicas either, but I can't beleive that when the President is coming through, that someone doesn't have a better pair of binos available.

I agree, they could at least step up to Tasco's.

Maybe those are the disposable binos they keep around for occasions like this.  I mean, would you really want to keep anything that he touched anyway?

What would be funny is to read a small label "MADE IN NORTH KOREA." 

[washelkhunter]

HAHAHA  Rose colored glasses!  North korea probably lookedlike the magic kingdom to him.

It's probably a Kaleidoscope.

I'd love to see the next pic with some black rings around his eyes from some practical joking placing ink on the eyecups.

I'd guess he's looking for his teleprompter.  His choice of optics is about on par with everyhthing else about him.

:chuckle:Where is a good prankster when you need one?

[Eli346]

 I wonder if someone painted the eyecups white instead of black; end up looking like the buffoon he really is!

[Steve C]

I tend to wonder if BO's defense cuts have reduced the military to buying Barska's.  What in the world is a binocular like that doing on the lines anyway? 

[couesbitten]

  My thoughts exactly.

[RadSav]

He probably borrowed those from Joe Biden or the great white hunter "John Kerry".

Oh...Nope...I remember now...It's George Bush's fault.  Yeah, that's it!

[HntnFsh]

With his "Vision" you could give him the best glass in the world and it wouldnt help.Or should I say, make a difference.

[Skyvalhunter]

surprised he knows what end to look thru
