He's 'too cool.' Truth is, his numbers continue to fall. Why? Nonsense like this, his interjecting in Zimmerman, etc.

Did Obama really say this, D?

Apparently at the Correspondents dinner a few nights back. I didn't watch his speech, but I watched the introduction by Jimmy Kimmel which was hilarious. He said to Obama at one point "I know you can't really laugh tonight at my jokes about the secret service, it would be inappropriate. So you may want to put your hands over your ears, if that's possible" Kimmel cracked me up!

Much ado about nothing. It was the correspondents dinner and that was part of his comedy routine to make fun of himself since he apparently has eaten dog meat before in his youth.

It's really too bad he couldn't make fun of himself without bringing Palin's name into it. He certainly has enough material to do that.

[logroller]

I don't know if I'd say he was insulting Palin; being likened to a pit bull, atleast in a political context, is complimentary IMO.

The implication I got was that Palin and hockey moms are anything but delicious.

Yeah, that is what was meant. He wasn't being subtle.

I'll bet he's never even tasted one.

I'll agree on that.

I find this interesting. The joke is about the difference between 2 subjects, the slight twist in obama's application is playing off of him eating dog. However if the same joke was told using different names as the subjects would it be acceptable?

For example; what is the difference between Michelle Obama and a pig? A pig is delicious.

Hmmm, how is that?

If he made that joke he'd have a better chance at eating Palin than Michelle.

If a Republican had said it, no doubt it would be hilarious. :rolleyes:

But it is a good point. No one has ever said that Palin was delicious. She looks rather fowl to me.

Gabby that's weak. You can say the same thing about any President who's military operations you disagreed with and there's enough on both sides of the aisle to have debates on for months.
That said, there is only 1 President in our history who has ever legally justified the assassination of an American citizen. I find that a hell of a lot more disturbing.

Haven't you heard? He wrote in his book about eating dog when he was a child. Maybe it was a pitbull? More like a Chihuahua.

It's all in the delivery. Does BO still laugh at his own jokes?

[jon_forward]

Everything BO says is a frigging joke.

What ever would we do if we didnt have the Internet to make us take life so seriously 'oh he should make jokes without referencing hockey moms or how would it look if he said this of this' sigh.

See, I'm still wondering how the eating dog part came up? Also, it was fantastically un-funny, even putting the alternate meaning aside.

[ConHog]

Just proves that at heart Obama is punk nigger out to get whitey.


And personally I wouldn't mind tasting some Sarah Palin.

It came from the Romney campaign - it's in response to the Seamus story (Romney family dog in crate, strapped to the car roof for 12-hour road trip). As a child in Indonesia, Obama ate dog meat, which is eaten there.

Still doesn't make the joke funny.

[libertine]

Nope. It wasn't. But I think that was Obama's way of letting the Romney campaign know that their 'dog-eating' story doesn't bother him. It's not like Obama likes to eat dogs. He lived in Indonesia when he was six years old.

What i don't get is why people care if it was funny or not? I mean, it doesn't mean anything about anything =/
