Obama "Gaffes" On Leno

[brandimonaghan]

Personally I find it very upsetting that someone in his position in our country would even joke about the Special Olympics. Those athletes work hard all year around to be as good as possible for their sport. How dare him make a joke about it.

[babywhitney3]

It was a silly jooooke!!! people need to relax!

[brandimonaghan]

@babywhitney3 When people RELAX about things like this it is upsetting. There is no joke funny about it. Obama needs a reality check and sent back to organizing community issues and not our country. He is not ready for the position.

[wahiawabriank]

true colors

[trustinstinct]

I know how to spell - are - I just type fast no more abuse of special needs kids they already have enough to overcome so why say anything negative unless you enjoy bullying people like the president just did !

[trustinstinct]

what is happening to our country ? If you point out what a terrible thing that isyou are racist ? how low can people stoop to defend offensive behavior. I think you are taking a cue from Isra*l who is telling Obama what to do if we criticize there horrific abuse we are called - ant* simetic - both groups are profesional liars it has nothing to do with race or religion. what a front. This has to do with people making fun of children that our beautiful and heroes compared to your ignorance

[trustinstinct]

the second line had no question mark - what is funny about mocking kids that have to overcome and work a thousand times harder than you to develop basic skills ? they should be admired not ridiculed

[trustinstinct]

This is beyond offensive and will be noted. any of you that defend mocking special needs kids is the most hateful spineless weak inidvidual imaginable. you are making fun of defenseless people.

[RapIsDeadly]

I don't see this as a problem. Who hasn't made retard jokes?

[brandimonaghan]

@RapIsDeadly The only people who are "retarded" are the ones making the jokes and thinking it is okay to do so. People who have friends or have worked with people with mental and physical disabilities know who the actual "retards" are and it isn't the one getting the service!

Obama needs to step down. He is NOT someone I want representing my country. The man can not even form a thought without a teleprompter! 

[bamcis17]

This is the kind of shit normal people say all the time. Only idiots jump all over this and go "SEE? SEE?!!? HE'S MAKING FUN OF RETARDS!" I wouldn't give a shit if Bush said this, and W. was the worst president in our entire history.

[trustinstinct]

@bamcis17 ignorant immature uneducated people say this all the time and it is wrong. what is funny about mocking kids that have to overcome and work a thousand times harder than you to develop skills. people used to say a lot of evil words all the time does that make it o.k. - wake up - this is wrong. i would say this to any person in the world. unless it makes you good to attack defenseless people which takes 0 courage

[jimbritttn]

I can't stand Comrade Obama but he said NOTHING wrong here!

[emantabrizi]

There's nothing wrong with what he said.

[grumpyoldgitt]

If a white person made a slip of the tongue racist comment to Obama and then apologised, would that make him any less a racist ?

In the same way a racist has a fundemental ignorance about race, Obama has a not uncommon ignorance about about disability.

[pitcalco]

Big deal. I am no fan of Obama, but is this really so bad? It was just a joke. People are getting far too sensitive. (I can't believe I am actually defending him. He is the worst thing to happen to the US in a long time - but not for this.)

[125riptide]

i'd say he lost the vote of every parent with a child with special needs, don't ya think?

[jrw816]

What an embarassment.  How could anyone make fun of the disabled. Even Jay Leno doesn't touch it.

[hartoor]

in Malaysia its locked for people to watch.

[AlmostSven]

I don't understand how throwing a ball down a lane and knocking over pins is the same as a person without a limb running 100 metres.

[hiltonhead07]

@AlmostSven

He was referring to the hurdles. lol

[Bulto00]

Hes a nigger, Lawl

[RejandLauren]

1. Your a racist..

2. How is that remark even relevant to the video...grow up.

[joewhittles]

is that it? jesus i thought he'd killed a cat or something, this is the most boring thing for people to get riled at obama against.

[OffTheSpot22]

EPIC OBAMA FAIL!

[Mizumi17]

lol

[SheKnowsHerself]

Tell me this; are you w/o sin, that you throw the first stone?

Have you forgotten how to forgive?

Just pray...and let God do the rest.

"And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive them that trespass against us"

[xprettyxlies]

So it is ok to judge Bush, as several people on this very board have, but when it is against precious Obama is isn't ok??

[SheKnowsHerself]

Now how do you come up with me judging Bush???

I was talking of forgiveness and you talk of judgements!

????

[UptownHunter]

Everyone here knows that he's only a human too... Right?

[DJdreamcast]

how can he be human if he's black?

[Anjreew]

How can you suck so much dick?

[falring]

Ur a fucking idiot

[ProEthan]

He's a robot ^.^

[kylexyish]

He should have MUCH more important things to do than be on Leno right now. This ISNT PRESIDENTIAL! OBAMA's making government look like a complete joke.

[matt26811]

We just had 8 years of the worst president in HISTORY, and you actually have the nerve to criticize Obama for one off-color remark?

[mattrmc19]

umm, in two months Obama has quadrupled the deficit Bush had. We expect $1 trillion deficits for the next decade. What the FUCK are you talking about now?

[VictoryStarr07]

I think you're now watching what will be one of the worst presidents in history...

[dgray72]

Gonna take some doing if Barry hopes to eclipse jimmy peanut boy as the worst.

[86entourage]

i bet you think george bush is one of the greatest presidents in history also...give me a break

[VictoryStarr07]

Hardly. LMAO

[VictoryStarr07]

Hardly. LMAO

[willyboy100]

Now, I dont put myself under the tyranny of political correctness but i really hate it when these two faced liberals break there own rules and pretty much get away with it.

[buddhajapan]

if bush said this... wow. and this is worse than what imus said, and obama was calling for imus' resignation.

[conservativeco]

I really don't care if he Gaffed on Leno. What I care about is while he's telling us this is the worst since the depression, he goes on a late night COMEDY show and talks about bowling.

[DaleOfHope]

Everyone needs to stfu.

If you're all big enough dicks to belittle Obama because he's black, you're all big enough dicks to make speak the same way he did in this video.

I'm not saying he was right to say it, I'm just saying you're all hypocrites.

[38quacco]

Is saying special people cant bowl any different than saying short people cant play basketball.

Come on people , not a big deal...

[LeandroCenturion]

B.OBAMA Priority List: 1) ISRAEL (2) BANKS (3) RHETORIC (4) CELEBRITY STATUS - and at the bottom of the list - ("") TRUTH ("") THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

[DaleOfHope]

LeandroCenturion's Priority List: 1) Making the lives of our leaders more difficult. 2) Not believing in them 3) Not giving them time - it's only been 2 months.

Fixing America will take years, and Obama is working his ass of to try and get it STARTED, so when the new president comes in in 4 years, he can finish the job :)

[theairyk]

I have no problem with what he said. However, I'm sure that if this had been said by some one with a R next to their name, the same people who support Obama would be crying out for a public apology.

[Irm6001]

shouldn't he be working on saving this nation..oh sorry that's right the banks control him

[killchain187]

So Obama can get away with implying that disabled persons are just as horrid of bowlers as he is?

And who says mainstream media isn't liberal biased? If George W. Bush had said that there would have been a firestorm.

[lenin1928]

Obama can get away with it because he is from Chicago royalty. The same black linage that produces drugs and shoots people of opposite color in Chicago's suburbs. Fuck Obama!

[capachino712]

what a funny joke! go obama!

[afrod123]

these comments are like the special olympics, bunch of morons

[FGN123]

Oh please. This is the type of comment people make in the heat of a conversation all the time.

[kneebush]

They would be calling for W's resignation if he had said that.

That's just as bad as what Don Imus got fired for.

[Facepeel]

Whoops...

[PseudoKnight]

It was an expression of humility in the face of what he considered undeserved praise, not a derogatory statement towards actual disabled individuals. This is consistent with what I'd expect from a real human being. If you want to criticize him as a President, do so regarding his policies.

I'm curious -- has anyone heard of one handicapped individual that was offended by this after seeing it for themselves? (not reading a headline)

[tinkothekoala]

how is something that is true so offensive to some people...?

[dingothewise80]

y'all have to lighten up

[fazoolius]

What a complete disgrace we have for a President. First, he is on Jay Leno acting like he is a celebrity and pandering to the crowd. Then he does what he always does when he opens his mouth...he says something completely idiotic.

[smithbob]

Wow, finally an intelligent and non liberally-douchetastic comment on YouTube.

Completely agreed. Obama has always pandered to Americans to achieve status. He'd rather be a celebrity than a President.

[youngfame830]

i agree with that, i told my friends i saw him as a celebrity politician more than a president...he treats reporters like paparazii hes our "Celebrity In Chief"

[meisen2]

Thats how our president sounds like when he speaks in public without a teleprompter.

How insensitive of him!

[jaafwa]

How about when Bush said we were going on a crusade in the middle east, how about that for insensitive.

[Killerwolfd777]

Yes that was stupid when Bush said it and he was called on it. What Obama said was also stupid...so you can't qualify it by saying "but president Bush said..." The main difference is that Obama is referring to a group of disabled AMERICANS. Quite frankly if we upset people in the middle east I don't care.

[swim3330]

0:18 Obama "It was like special olympics or something" . wow what a quality and sensitive president we have

[jsbruzina]

What a fucking dolt. This idiot isn't as smart as the Yes We Can crowd thinks ...

[BatousaiofChaos]

That's the way these sham liberals think!

It's all about helping out people but they have NEVER DONE A SINGLE GOOD THING for any of them.

They've destroyed the black family with welfare. 70% of all black children are born out of wedlock.

Shame.

[JockamoGoon]

what an asshole

[crystarose24]

That is so disrespectful as a president to say something like that! He seems to have a knack at alienating certain groups of Americans. I wish someone would tell Obama that the campaign is over. So now he can stop appearing on television shows and do the job America was so foolish to let him do. I'm still fuming about the gift exchange between him and Prime Minister Brown.

[sticky5050]

whats better than winnig the special olympics? not being retarded

[ingodwetrust99]

Obama, the Marion Barry-like dolt, ought to be forced to step down. before he disgraces our great nation further.

Even Maxine Waters just made a public comment that Obama is "not up to speed". LOL

Barry Obama ought to go back to his old job at ACORN, where, as a lawyer, he mentored staff, on how to conduct business. He's our first Hop-hop gangsta president and I pray he'll be our last. God help us all.

[tpcdandme311]

lol a former harvard law review editor is a hip hop gangsta president?

[studioengineer]

and the media thinks its all just "ok"... could you imagine if it were Bush that said this??! They would be outraged, just as they should be now.

[connecticutmommmy]

Not ready for prime time. Can't we have a re-do?

[whatleston]

this is like special olympics or something

[SaveOurSovereignty3]

right up there with his "I'm a mutt" comment

[wheresthebody]

america is doomed

[ttothemaxx2]

god damn presidents
