President Obama appeared on the Miami radio station Y100 Friday, where he weighed in on the Mariah Carey v. Nicki Minaj feud, was asked whether Vice President Joe Biden should shave his head to look more authoritative, and said he should have brought up Mitt Romney’s “47 percent” video tape during the presidential debate because “the media’s attention span is fairly short.”
The president spoke with DJ Michael “Yo” Simmons, the self-billed “Half-Black Brother with a Korean Mother” who also does stand-up and serves as a celebrity correspondent on E! News.
“If you want to get out the vote, the place to go is the YO Show,” the president said.
Yo asked the president whether there was a moment in the first presidential debate against Mitt Romney when he realized it was not his night.
“You know, that’s not actually how I thought about it,” the president said. “I do think that on television it was clear that I was being too restrained when Mr. Romney was telling his tall tales. But the truth is, when you read the transcript, everything I said was true and a lot of what he said was not.”
The president continued to say what he told Diane Sawyer, arguing that the “underlying fundamentals of this race haven’t changed.” He then continued to argue that Romney wants to provide tax breaks for the wealthy, which “as a consequence would raise taxes on middle class families,” an assertion the Romney campaign says is not true.
“If he had his way we’d still have troops in Iraq,” the president said about Romney.
“There’s no doubt that I had an off-night,” the president said. “He had a sharp presentation but his ideas are still ones that aren’t going to work for America..."(continued)

The world is going to hell in a hand basket and he is pontificating on a TV show? He should have his skinny ass back in the oval office trying to solve problems regarding world problems and how they relate to the US. This is what we are paying him for after all.
I know what you mean, however, he is clearly incapable of doing the job, even if they (Valerie Jarrett?) pulled him kicking and screaming off the golf course...
That video started the mess in Libya.
This is indicative of the largest failure of this imposter: he is more concerned about pop culture and late night television than he is about matters related to national security and foreign policy.
He is an utter failure on all levels.

“The media’s attention span is fairly short”, so saith Barack Obama-—yes, I suppose it is, since after four years of evidence they still don’t know how to vet you, evaluate you,
or come up with a reason why they should do so.
“If he had his way we’d still have troops in Iraq,” the president said about Romney.”
How stupid can people be? What is the difference between troops dying in Iraq or Afghanistan? Afghanistan is the secret war, Obamas war, no daily body count, no war correspondents, just reports of unmanned drone attacks. He has a less just war in Afghanistan,still being waged, troops still dying and he wants to criticize Romney about Iraq. This asshole has more guts than a brass monkey.
Only four more weeks left of the horribly abnoxious preezy!
The People Magazine President.
Is going to weigh in on the economy any time soon?
You forgot that just yesterday , he started us in a clandestine war in Yemin (drone sortie ).
Iraq
Afghanistan
Syria ?
Libya ?
Iran oil routes ?
Yemen
And he doesn’t have time for international leaders (Bibi) ?
He can barely get thorugh the apology tour on a non-issue of “the film” , while there are 6 dead Americans in Libya ?
But he ‘s concerned about Mariah and Nicki ?
What a freakin joke !!
We have priorities ,..ya know ?
“If you don’t have a record to run on, then you paint your opponent as someone people should run from. You make a big election about small things...”
