AUDIO: Was Barack Obama Just Joking When He Said He Was Sensitive About His Ears?

Was Barack Obama serious or was he just joking when he told Maureen Obama that he was sensitive about his ears? Listen HERE (fast forward to about 7:35) and decide for yourself. Is there also a VIDEO clip of this incident. The expression on Obama's face would probably reveal the answer.

Yea...he was joking about his ears like Faith Hill was joking when Kerri Underwood beat her out for female artist of the year.

Funny. Ross Perot had those big ears and he got a lot of mileage out of the puns for that...

his famous "I'm all ears" speech for example.

I think he was kidding, but with an element of truth in it, too. He's too smart to complain to journalist in all seriousness about the way his ears have been described. This isn't a big deal at all.

"Wonder if she'd like it if we teased her about her big ass or saggy breasts?"

Maureen might not like it, but I'd get a kick out of it.

Let's see: he's a black kid being raised by white grandparents and he wants us to think the other kids teased him about his ears. Sure. A born politician.

What I don't get is that if he is so sensitive about his jughead ears why doesn't he just get a bit of plastic surgery and have them pinned-back? It's a fairly simple operation, and not that expensive.

Obviously he's not THAT sensitive about them.

I'm pretty sensitive about having 10 toes which is why I cover the up with shoes in public most of the time.

He was raised by white grandparents...would that mean one of his parents is white? Ok, so why do they (media) keep referring to him as black? Could he not as easily be referred to as white or mixed race?
