From the original Flikr page:
This official White House photograph is being made available only for publication by news organizations and/or for personal use printing by the subject(s) of the photograph. The photograph may not be manipulated in any way and may not be used in commercial or political materials, advertisements, emails, products, promotions that in any way suggests approval or endorsement of the President, the First Family, or the White House.
Nothings saying no lols please though, so I think that's legally acceptable and binding

It can't be used in ways suggesting an endorsement by the subjects, but as a work of the US federal government, the law specifically says they can't claim copyright or prevent derivative works.
