Barack Obama Refuses 'Boxers or Briefs' Question
US Magazine ^ | 02/28/2008

Posted on 02/28/2008 9:35:14 AM PST by Responsibility2nd

In the new issue of Us Weekly, presidential candidate Barack Obama invited news director Lara Cohen to join his campaign for a day. He described some of his best Just Like Us moments, and took our Presidential Pop Quiz (where he revealed that his daughters think Britney and Paris are "yuck").

Some excerpts from the Us interview:

How familiar are you with Us Weekly?

My wife reads it.

--snip--

So, boxers or briefs? Bill Clinton said he wore boxers in a 1992 interview with MTV.

I don't answer those humiliating questions. But whichever one it is, I look good in 'em!

I’m surprised he didn’t go commando. He does have a female following ya’ know.

It’s not commando, is it?

I think I have to gouge out my inner eye with an ice pick now.

It is a stupid, undignified question. Bill Clinton lowered the bar by answering it in 1992 and then continued to set the standard of undignified presidential behavior for the next 8 years.

He called that a “Humiliating Question” that Bill Klinton enjoyed answering so much. It was what connected him to “young people”.

I willing to bet that Klinton emerges from his bunker to get even. He can’t help himself. This question is a HUGE PART of his legacy. It is one of the things that symbolizes him and what we remember him for (among other perverted and treasonous activities).

Obama just called Klinton sick pathetic disgusting POS shameless loser.

Ball is in your court Bill....

Will Kanye West come forward to proclaim that Obama's kids don't like white people?

The truth of the matter is that “boxers or briefs” was a fabricated media moment. The “kids” who got to ask questions were screened. That girl was the daughter of a journalist (at CBS?).

She sat with her mom to decide on a question. They settled on one about legalizing drugs. The Clinton campaign nixed it and told her to ask something “lighter”.

Boxers or briefs.. “But whichever one it is, I look good in ‘em!” Yes, we should never elect the guy who does not look good with trousers dropped down...

Why they did not ask whether he wears “whichever one it is” on his head? Wherever it is, I bet, he looks good in ‘em.

No wonder his wife has such a poor perspective on America.

Ok, I just threw up in my mouth a little. But I get your point. That would NEVER be asked of a woman or of Hillary.
