BURBANK, Calif. – President Barack Obama has told Jay Leno he was stunned when he learned of the bonuses that bailed-out insurance giant AIG was paying its employees.

Obama told "The Tonight Show" host the payments raise moral end ethical problems — and the administration's going to do everything it can to get them back.

But Obama added the bigger problem is the culture that allowed traders to claim them. He says that's got to change if the economy is to recover.

According to NBC, Obama was the first sitting president ever to appear on "The Tonight Show." He'd already appeared twice as a candidate. already appeared twice as a candidate

Time to be on Leno's show, but no time to read what he is signing.

Yep, makes sense to me.

So--now the (not my) POTUS is going on a comedy show to explain and push his agenda.

Ye gods!

We're sooooo screwed!

Did you see Bruce Jenner on Hannity last night? He said that the thousands of people lining up to get tickets for the Leno Show were all under 23yrs old. Since many of them can’t and don’t read it shows that they mimic their Leader.

Precisely. He signed the gd law. If he didn’t know what was in it why did he sign?

Yep, so stunned (aka, already knew about it and covering my own a**) that he did nothing while his own administration made provisions for the contracts requiring bonuses to be paid. I bet he’d be stunned to learn he’s not eligible to president either. Something tells me this guy is stunned often.

Sorry, my bad. Failed to do a search.

Lie like a rug - the democrat bread & butter play.

Its not like the MSM will actually challenge them.

[Secret Agent Man]

The only question is did he use Leno’s teleprompters or bring the TOTUS (Teleprompter Of The United States).

[LottieDah]

“...Something tells me this guy is stunned often.”

He should be zapped instead of stunned.

Dodd amendment. [crickets]

No outside cameras were supposed to be allowed in, so I guess he had Leno’s crew set it up for him.

“We’re sooooo screwed! “

Ah yes, the liberal sex education course.

[Venturer]

Everybody who thinks Obama is a lying sack of Crap raise your hands.

[AUsome Joy]

Do you remember how George Bush would not only allow outside cameras, but would pose for pictures with the people who wanted them? He was never a pretender.

[Logical me]

King Obama is a lying piece of garbage.
