1. Keith was on the job two months when his division made their annual numbers. They did so well they decided to let him pull an Obama and go on the $1.5 million bonus trip with them to Venezuela.
2. Chris the janitor told the Chairman of the Board we should become the market leader in widgets. The board agreed and decided to make him company president and gave him a $1.5 million bonus. How's that for pulling an Obama?!
3. Yesterday Rachel the crackwhore told me she was finally going to get clean. I gave her my credit card and told her to start by getting herself a new wardrobe. This morning I caught her with a penis in one hand, a crack pipe in the other and my credit card was nowhere to be found! Boy did she pull an Obama!
4. Al pulled an Obama when he told me we could successfully navigate the space-time continuum if we just hoped it could be done while holding these special hi-tech antennae he invented. The government is going to give him a $1.5 million grant just for having the courage to speak out about such a laudable goal! I only hope there's enough wire hangers for everybody...
5. Usain had the 200m race won going away until he tripped over his own shoelaces and did a disfiguring faceplant into the track. Minutes later Linus pulled an Obama by crossing the finish line and taking the gold! Good thing Linus stayed unflappably cool in that head-to-head race!

Get the Pulling a Mosby mug.by gonch November 4, 2007
Get the gonch pull mug.When you are out with a group of friends (greater than 5). You leave when you are ready to leave ...and leave the goodbye's, until next time.
It is like an Irish Goodbye, except it is not, because you are pulling a Weintraub. Unlike, the Irish Goodbye, pulling a Weintraub does not involve the word Goodbye at all.
