Presidency Fails to Live Up to Obama's Technological Expectations

Shmoozing with his peeps in Chicago (peeps with cash for his re-election campaign, that is) Obama reveals the vast chasm between expectation and reality:

“The Oval Office, I always thought I was going to have really cool phones and stuff,” he said during a small fundraising event at a Chicago restaurant. “I’m like, c’mon guys, I’m the president of the United States. Where’s the fancy buttons and stuff and the big screen comes up? It doesn’t happen.”

Maybe they can pass the hat and buy him a new iPad or something.

Update: Obama probably thought he was going to get this kind of cool stuff.
