CNN Runs Video of Obama Calling Kanye "Jackass"

[killazerg1]

Is he wrong? Nope. Kanye is a huge jackass

[TheEmmaHouli]

"cut the president some slack" Ha that's all I would say ALL DAY LONG if I were president

[MrTrykster]

GAY FISH next time

[Ponthel]

Lol, things like this show me he's not the American hating muslim that he was painted to be by the GOP. If it comes down to Obama vs Perry, I got the Commander in Chiefs back. I'm a Texan and I truly fear what Perry would do to the country if in control. Perrys been gov of Texas for 11 years due a constitutional loophole. That's not how a democracy works. He holds power in Texas in much the same manner as Dictators hold power in false democracies like in the Middle East.

[Mattw9105]

Should've called him a gay fish

[THEAWESOMENESS2013]

A pretty old Cracked article sent me here. CRACKED FTW!!!

[hockeydominator1]

Wow. You know your a jackass when the president calls you one.

[nextlevel2burittos]

obama 2012

[F00Tball47]

obama is beast

[potresen909]

ILUMINATI... F*

CK YOU

[ananniemal]

Obama 2012

[Samuellos77]

obama's gettin mad coz another black person's stealing da top spot!!!!!!!!! :L

[soccerX1000]

hmmmm we all support obama stating his opinion, yet we get mad wen kanye does

[TheSameFourNotes]

@soccerX1000 Stating your opinion, and forcing it on others while being way out of line, are two very different things.

[SakuNaru94]

@soccerX1000 that wasn't an appropriate time or place to be stating his opinion. :l

[Ponthel]

@SakuNaru94 People like you are funny. You hold your betters to a standard that you could not possibly ever attain yourself. I bet if I followed you around with a mic, it would take you all of 5 minutes to make a fool of yourself, and that's being generous.

[MissViVega]

Kanye IS a jackass.

Shit, you people act as if Obama can't have an opinion.

lol. I bet Kanye felt like crap after hearing this.

Too bad he still hasn't changed.

[PruneFace12]

This event had better be in future history books! It'll go: The creation of the constitution, the cold war, and Kanye West getting dissed by the most powerful man in the world.

[hugo5918]

Well, he is a jackass. What's with all the hype? Obama just stated the obvious...

[solid119]

19 people are jackasses

[Malferter]

How come when everybody else in the world can call him a jackass it's no big deal, but when the president does he gets all the attention. I want that attention, no fair -_- but in all seriousness who really cares? Oh he called someone a jackass like everyone else in the world...

[da1on2]

@Malferter I think it has something to do with him being the President of the United States of America.

[Malferter]

@da1on2 Too a lot of people that must mean something...to me he is another person, no more, no less.

[da1on2]

@Malferter He has more power than you ever will in your entire life. I think he's a little more than just another person.

[Malferter]

@da1on2 I do not care -_- I see him as a person whose just been given a high status...that to me means nothing

[polkafrenzy666]

I wonder how many times he's used the saying "cut the president some slack"? "Come on Michelle it was a hard day, cut the president some slack and give me a handy."

[franciscojavierm]

Either you are agree or disagree with him must admit Obama is suave... and if the President of The United States thinks you're a jackass... well, you are the biggest one in the nation!

[tinaUNDAcova]

Can we not delve into political debates and just enjoy this candid bit of awesomeness.

[citiesingrass]

This is why I like most presidents as people, not as politicians for no matter how many speeches they give and how they handle world events they are still as much a person as anyone else. They are the leaders of the people, unlike monarch rulers.

[harold3456]

Aw, it cuts before he says "This is gonna be that damn fly thing all over again", referring to the media buzz that surrounded him swatting a fly in an interview.

[zimdelinvasor]

ah, youtube... where every video's comment section has to turn into a flame war about some combination of bieber, politics, and/or racism....

[xxTaKe2xx]

"cut the president some slack"

[MrVesanique]

0:13

Look at Obama's face.

" Oh fuck, was that shit on ?! "

[jadeddragon212]

@MrVesanique

LMFAO!!! Word. Man, Obama seems like he'd be cool to hang out with. He's so funneh! I wish people would cut the dude some slack though. =(

[cagyeman]

haha, "come on guys, cut the president some slack", haha I love this guy

[elong8600]

True,Kanye west is one,But STILL. LOL if You people think he is cool and all,but the president and swaring is not a good mix.It is funny though....XD....But he should be setting good examples.

[rsmastawind]

While less than half of America approve of his policies. Around 85% of people like him as a person.

He seems like he would be a cool neighbor.

[YourMadeCoach]

Our great President meant Kanye is a jackass as a democrat.

[AFarCryDistantMemory]

Presidential Pwnage.

[ralu4mike]

why would CNN post that... are you blind ppl ??

[vashthestampede11]

I don't like Obama at all, but the way he said that was EPIC

[alucard1931]

@vashthestampede11 Kanye West must've shrunk to the size of an ant after being dissed by the President. I don't care if it's an MTV Award. You just don't crash a person's moment of glory....Period.

[KeepnItRealNigga]

100% agreed.............. but people who say this is why Obama is great or this is the first thing he has done right are probably 1) WHITE and 2) Racist. I would not say this if we had a legitimate presidential candidate like Hillary....But McCain?!?!? even more wtf, with PALIN?!?!?! You REDNECKS would prolly vote for Hitler over Obama.........the truths the truth---> U R A Racist (but the bright side, for me at least, is you wont be the majority in 5 yrs so ur opinions will mean ZERO!!!!) LOL

[PantherCamaro]

President Obama is Cool

[moccasins1000]

I respect this man!

[xlerosx]

The only time I respected anything this man had to say.

[paradiseangel72]

@xlerosx i agree with you on this one hahaha

[Severe777]

I wonder what kanye thought about this when he heard it haha... Is there any info about that?

[unknowncarolina]

@Severe777

I was looking for the same thing... he was prob. like oh shit I got called a jackass by the President! XD >.< its over for me

[Severe777]

@unknowncarolina Yea, probably got mad and started punching holes in the walls. While crying.

[dr32803]

Everyone thinks Kanye is a jackass. It's nice to know we have a normal pres.

[TheYaosuke]

whats so cool hes a normal person

im just saying

[Metatronflaren]

@TheYaosuke - That's exactly what's cool. if you look at the previous ones...well, you know how Bush was....

[DarthChewyProduction]

I swear...his mouth wasn't even moving! he just kept smiling...weird

[GashisDX]

@DarthChewyProduction hesajackass

[larry89]

i can picture obama smoking a j

[kittenmommy]

I love him more and more every day. Seriously!

[arubberball]

cut the people some slack, and stop expanding overreaching government intrusion.

[killallianceftw]

I think its fair to say he is doing a fine job at running the country...you guys seem to forget hes stuck cleaning up the 8 year mess bush created

[tyr733]

@killallianceftw Amen bud.. but it's gonna take more than Obama's term to clean up Bush's screw-ups.

[LtSurge659]

@killallianceftw

Disregard this post. The poster is clearly uneducated.

[ozena52]

@killallianceftw Shut the fuck up, he has the same people working for him and the country has gone into being more and more of a police state since his inaugration.

[ThaSkylineSucks]

@ozena52

AWWWWWWWWWWWW :(

[StarsAndStraps4E]

@killallianceftw 8 year mess?..LOL.. Times were great when Bush was in office. Business for me and my dad was booming!! Now I've had to take other career paths.

[vvbn7890]

@StarsAndStraps4E You rode the wave left from Clinton and the Democrats. An economy doesn't transform like the sun goes up and down everyday. It takes months and months, years and years of bad policy, decision and spending to ruin an economy. Its only when shit finally hits the fan that everyone starts thinking "omg...we're doing something wrong here". That happened to be the point Bush was on his way out. Americans thought their economy was invincible. Its not, and it wont be easy to fix

[calvin1392]

@killallianceftw never stop blaming bush do you leftys?

[killallianceftw]

@calvin1392 Nope, because bush is a "jackass"

[TheProgressistViewer]

@killallianceftw And you seem to not be able to see that he is pursuing the exact same economic policies as Bush

[LilSpankey93]

@killallianceftw Cleaning up? He continuing our messy bush problem(War), running our country into debt, and for some reason Obama still has his Hitler sponges! He lied to get into office, He fulled his cabinet with Lobbyists, and now he starting a preemption war by gettting permission from the U.N. and not the Constitution. Restore the Republic! Ron Paul 2012

[Squa7ch]

@killallianceftw People seem to forget about that.

[2012Romney]

@killallianceftw Well do you still feel this way? It's been 2 and a half years now, and things are looking worse.

Where are the tax cuts? Where is the repeal of Obamacare? Where are the energy solutions? Where is food price relief?

Obama did one thing to fix the economy: Pass the Stimulus. We were told it would hold us under 8% unemployment. Unemployment went to 9.8% and has not falled much since. 20 million Americans are out of work, and Obama refuses to look at pro-growth tax policy.

[myhomie01]

Now I love our President!!!!

[SookieNVelo]

obama described kanye perfectly..really he did

[geargemartin]

one of the few things obama ever said that i agree with

[muskymod]

I agree....except I would have called him a fuckbag!...Kanye is a racially charged negro without a brain!

[krotoz316]

at 0:12-0:14 his face goes to the "Oh shit" face

[saulisbomb]

Hey he is black and thats how we roll

[urbanstroller]

@saulisbomb who Obama - Kanye?

[saulisbomb]

@urbanstroller Obama

[alejandrolopezcinca]

sorry, but a president mustn't say certains things neither to reveal any opinion

[SexSteakSoda]

@alejandrolopezcinca Says who?

[sUPimCeaSAr]

KANYE WEST IS THE BESt!!!!!!!!!

[ook3vin]

hahaha awesome !

[lolamartiniz]

obama was right on -- kanye IS a jackass (not was)

[Yelena335]

Obamas Health Care Proposal... Can it help America's residents. .? US opinion's must be stated!! Come to my utube channel and learn how

[Kratonis]

mjfan...your totally right. and bush completely helped the country out and wasnt stupid...obama should call you a jackass

[SecretService80]

Not only is he right, this shows that even the "Primp and Proper" President can be casual...and correct on judgement.

[ssjdragonslayer]

all the people complaining about Obama are nazi republican warmongers

[mjfanforeverwillbe1]

obama is just stupid

[mjfanforeverwillbe1]

obama's not a good president at all, he pretends to be a good president and bring change,, he's done nothing watso ever ,

[LucaAzrael]

Thats mainly because everyone else keeps bogging down everything Obama does. You are right tho Obama should just do a Bush, lay down the hand, screw the votes and the Republicans and implement his original bill

[BobMoose97]

how cool is he? its great that he just said that on tv, not really thinking about the consequences! but i suppose he doesn't really care what people say, he's the most powerful man on the planet.

[honnybun101]

hahaha ur so fuking stupid.

[LuckyAppleEye]

@ProBinderSpinner i know obamas cool!

[michaelhays92]

@ProBinderSpinner Hahaha true that

[brivanas]

@ProBinderSpinner We have an idiot for a president lol

[rcastillo196]

@brivanas nope we had an idiot as president. and if you dont know who i am talking about its bush.

[BabyGirlGoddess]

people were giving him crap for this....

it just makes him seem normal.

[sthesailor]

you know you've fucked up when the freakin PRESIDENT calls you out on it lol

[yosei967]

its kinda funny how fucked up and racist our world is and that this video has started a huge debate about who should lead our country

it makes me laugh yet it is quite sad how many douche bags there are, who are so ignorant they won't even bother to try something out of their comfort zone and just have a one-way track of thinking, and I'll bet that even though you guys are acting like 5-year-olds you are probably 40 and need to fucking grow up

[jvaski]

Stop giving the 12 year old attention.

[GodAndtheRepublic]

@jvaski When your grandfather raped your mother, was she older than 12?

You are a product of rape and incest...dumb bitch.

[ajh2408]

@GodAndtheRepublic If you had listened through out his campaign you would have realised that Obama had already stated that he would put 30,000 troops into Afghanistan before he became president. As for the debt, that isnt something that can be fixed in just over a year. what with the trillions of dollars of it that America has racked up over the years

[TheRedDash]

Hilary Clinton ? are u serious , woman are to hormonal, they could never run this country, ive even asked multiple people in nyc about the topic of a woman president. ( it was a college project) and i had to ask 100 woman . out of 100 woman 78 said that a woman president would not be the best idea. and about this conspiracy theory you have , what if this is al true what u say. what are u going to do now ? nothing you do not have a voice at all,

[GodAndtheRepublic]

Women are whores to the highest bidder. The more money you have, the more the dumb brainless sluts will gravitate towards you.

[pimplup818]

I'm not a fan of Obama at all but I have to give him props for that one. Best comment of 2009

[GodAndtheRepublic]

Obama is a loser. First president in history to have poll numbers drop as fast as he has.

The prick-

[pimplup818]

oh I agree. I just found this funny

[GodAndtheRepublic]

No wonder you are stupid.

[pimplup818]

huh? explain.

[GodAndtheRepublic]

wow people are fucking dumb..

1- obama lied about almost everything he said

2- he wants government run health care

3- in his first year he already spent more then bush

he's destroying the contitution and bankrupted america doesnt take a racsist to not like him

[Nolat]

can't even spell racist correctly, shows you're a dumbass.

[GodAndtheRepublic]

Obama is a racist like most sorry Blacks.

Dumb ass

[MattJones1418]

except he didn't lie. he's doing everything he said he would. how is that lying?

[GodAndtheRepublic]

Can the liar named Obama put all the Bills online so that people can read them instead of hide his socialist bullshit.

Can Obama pull the troops out of Iraq and Iran.

Can Obama pull us out of debt.

NOPE, EVEN THOUGH HE SAID HE WOULD, THE BITCH LIED.

[MattJones1418]

Yes he can!

[tinymon]

@GodAndtheRepublic And where do you come up with the trillions of dollars that the US us in debt in two years? Let's just rob Bill Gates.

[SexSteakSoda]

@GodAndtheRepublic The bills are online, its called wikipedia. You're obviously biased and wouldn't have nice things to say about Obama regardless of what he's done. So why troll youtube for Obama videos if you're just going to slander him? Do you have a life?

[TheFaithofGod]

That's why the health care debates are going on at 3 a.m. and aren't being televised on C-SPAN~~~!!!!!!!!

[MattJones1418]

maybe u should stay up later

[GodAndtheRepublic]

@MattJones1418  someone kill that nigga Obama!

[MattJones1418]

if ur into god, killing is a sin

[GodAndtheRepublic]

I take sinful souls to God. I am the archangel death.

[MattJones1418]

dude no way! that's pretty cool. how much do u get paid? or is it on commission, like god pays u per soul brought?

[GodAndtheRepublic]

@MattJones1418

My payment is in soulette coins.

[KamikazeKlown]

Uh, No! You're just only an idiot.....Nothing more, nothing less.

[xEffrumx]

show's he's just like the rest of us

[theDRIZZLE508]

This had to be THE greatest moment of '09

[rkoliver1]

It's Bush's fault!

[SeriousV8]

ahahahah kanye is a piece of shit......

[billionear]

How fucking funny is he when he realizes what hes just said. Looks around, assess the situation and just goes straight into 'damage control' mode. But he is so cool he could of said it in a press conference and would of got a standing ovation.

[loopbags]

Bahaha Obama FTW.

[truebroz]

lol best part "I'm assuming all this stuff" lmao

[thatssoturkish]

what does he say ? could you write it pls, he talks too fast, i don't understand

[bboynpng]

@thatssoturkish obama talking about taylor swift

- The young lady seems like a perfectly nice person...She's gettin her award....What's he doing?

-Why would he do that?!!

-HE'S A JACKASS!!

LAUGHS!!!

Obama!!- No nAHh...this..all the stuff?...I'm assuming all the stuff??!....Come on guys! Give the president some slack :P

[thatssoturkish]

hahahaha thank you :)

[jeanneadele]

I love you even more now Mr. President.  I Truly Do.

[TheRedDash]

i love obama. calm down people  even the president aint that innocent. he's got a awesome attitude. perfect choice as our new president,

[cchmlfa]

@TheRedDash Right, since 9-11, there were no terrorist attacks on american soil, now, 1 year into Obamie, we have 13 dead and 30 wounded and a near miss commercial airline takedown, and his Homeland security mismanger first saying that the system WORKED and then having to change that line once she saw how outraged the American public was at such a BS comment. Hilary clinton would be much tougher on terrorist organizations given the latitude to do so. Obamie doesn't want be upstaged by her. Pus

[TheRedDash]

@cchmlfa ok let me tell you this, dont get political on me you racist fuck, shoulda coulda woulda, he is president end story. much better than the white honkey we had in office before

[cchmlfa]

With th ejob he has done, after Obamie, you may as well say we had 2 black presidents, the first and the last.

[TheRedDash]

@cchmlfa once his term is over this is gonna lead to more presidents of different races, this will start a well balanced trend. and your kinda people will be flushed out and knocked from the political circle. your opinion doesnt matter

[GodAndtheRepublic]

shut the fuck up nigger

[eggsandham11]

comon guys cut the president some slack

[branddoodmuts]

isn't this supposed to be off the record? :P

still epic though XD

[lordrandal90]

kanye who? sorry I'm not from america

[syprnc]

obama ftw. kanye beind dissed by the president? major pwnage.

[scobbler1976]

I can't take it .... LMAO ;()

[HoneyDipTee]

shouldn't our president be focused on afghanistan, a horibble economy, etc. I love our president but he's focused on the wrong thing

[ntnone]

Don't be idiotic. It's clearly an off-the-cuff comment made while he's being prepared for an interview.

30 seconds that would otherwise be taken up by any other small talk - or silence - isn't indicative of a lack of focus on more important issues.

[the1andonlyAMAZON]

RIGHT ON!

[vegaskawasaki]

sooo that means he cant have any other conversation? come on now, stf up. I am in the military and he is doing great things 4 us this video was not about the war. Cut the president some slack lol

[HoneyDipTee]

Wow.. you got on here to tell me to stf up... and you're in the military?? shouldn't you be focused on other things.. lol.. take a walk clown!

[Turbosaucy]

HoneyDipTee, why would you say that? obama seems like a perfectly nice person what are you doing? you're a jackass.

[HoneyDipTee]

WOW! I'M A JACKASS! GOOD ONE!

[momoandmiz]

OBAMA FTW~

[brainiacxx]
