NBC: Obama Calls Singer Jessica Simpson Fat
Newsbusters ^ | February 2, 2009 - 02:45 | Warner Todd Huston

Apparently, President Barack Obama thought that Jessica Simpson's weight was something he needed to make fun of during his pre-Super Bowl interview with Matt Lauer on NBC Sunday. Seriously. Obama called Jessica Simpson a fatty on national TV.

Lauer displayed for the audience the cover of a recent issue of the tabloid entertainment magazine US Weekly that featured the President's wife and daughters and also had an insert photo pushing a story about singer Simpson.

As he viewed the cover, Obama decided to smack the singer down for "losing a weight battle."

All that effort Bush put in to rehabilitate the presidency. All that effort.

I saw it. The presidency has once again become a soap opera, a young child holding the position out of pride rather than devotion to the nation.

Here the guy actually addressed the appearance of a citizen of the United States. To say it is juvenile is to waste words. It’s so clear even a child would know that this is improper.

I can’t imagine Obama trashing a ‘sister’ like that. I guess it’s okay since it’s just Jessica. I’m not a big fan of Simpson by any means, but this is just tacky.

This ten year old in an adult body act is getting old already.

It's nice to see our President making fun of a Private Citizens weight. I see he is focused on bringing back “respect” to the Presidency. /sarc

Seriously, If I had to choose between his wife and Jessica Simpson it would not even be a contest. And it ain't because she is black, it's because I don't have a thing for toothpick b***hes.

Since he has been president he has attacked Rush Limbaugh and Jessica Simpson. Why would wither of these people be within the purview of the president?

How cute it all is!
Wow, what puppy will he get?
What magazines covers will he grace???

I can’t stand it! Squeeel!

This guy hasn’t been tested yet, and when time comes he is going to fail miserably.

Maybe looking at a radiated American city will sober up some that drank the Obama-ade. I don’t know, maybe not even that would do it.

“Man its gonna be a long four years.”

Well look at it this way, about 2 years and 9 months until the next presidential race starts.

Least that’s something to focus on.

He has a long history of demeaning or patronizing behavior toward women, though the MSM seems to have conveniently forgotten that.

Michelle should keep her eye on the interns, we may have another perv in the Oval Office.

I wonder how those who keep calling Obama a good role model for kids will react to this? What am I bet for “taken out of context” and “trying to bring down the first black president”?

Hussein has been on the tube every day since the inauguration and missed only a few since the election.

As much as I’d like to jump on Hussein I’ve got to give him the benefit of the doubt on this one. He was probably just reading the headline on the cover above an unflattering picture of Simpson: “Inside Jess’ Weight Battle - ‘Jumbo Jessica’ insult - Her Yo-Yo Dieting”.

Well, you can fix “fat” with liposuction, and “ugly” with plastic surgery. But you cannot fix “stupid”.

I’m not willing to watch Obama to find out.
