By now, people are becoming aware of Barack Obama's bowling comment on Jay Leno. He compared his 129 to Special Olympics. How sensitive of our Kenyan president.

As some of you might recall, Obama bowled a 37 during the campaign. I put up a post that showed the averages of little Bantam bowlers. Even 6-year-old girls could beat him.

Okay, Barack, here are pictures of real Special Olympics bowlers. Our Kiwanis group has a bowling tournament for them every year. Barack --- STFU. While you are at it, stop destroying our country.

“If Sarah Palin made such an insensitive statement, would NBC edit it out???”

she would have been an advocate for the disabled if she was VP and this is what we get instead.

“It’s Like The Special Olympics”
Posted by: Hugh Hewitt at 11:37 PM

That’s President Obama, talking about his miserable bowling game.

Saturday, btw, is World Down Syndrome Awareness Day. March 21st was chosen for its numerical representation—3/21—being symbolic of the third “bonus” copy of the 21st chromosome, which is the genetic cause of Down syndrome. This discovery was made 50 years ago by Jerome Lejeune.

I will have Mark Leach on Friday’s show to discuss children with Down Syndrome, as I did last year. There is an effort underway among the eugenics-minded to encourage the abortion of children identified as having Down Syndrome. Casual cruelty of the sort President Obama engaged in is, sadly, routine, and reinforces the popular idea of children with Down as somehow second-class. Perhaps the president will use the inevitable apology to draw attention to the hundreds of thousands of wonderful children and adults who are fully human and fully citizens but who have to work through this condition with the love and assistance of their families and communities.

Preident Obama no doubt regrets his remark, and perhaps his certain apology will call attention to the fact that such casual mockery is simply unacceptable.

It was wrong to even bring up the Special Olympics and you are an ass to try and sugar coat it.

Here is what he said:

Watch his hands when he gets on or off Air Force One. He refuses to touch the railing - and holds his hands in front of him, flopping them around like fish out of water.

Much better, Doug! Thanks!

Simply amazing that Obama stepped into his own PC-Followers tar pit. But, then, it was only the mainstream media and his PC-Followers that thought he was smart in the first place!

One of the comments on that ABC site said something very true.

People who TRULY care about the disabled would never say a joke like that. NEVER.

I thought about it, and I would NEVER say a joke like that, even in private. It is telling that he did.

B. S.!!!

Signed up today to defend Mr. foot in mouth disease that is plaguing this country!

It's also a pattern...

Obama's line on Leno was reminiscent of a crack at Nancy Reagan he let slip last year.

"I didn't want to get into a Nancy Reagan thing about, you know, doing any seances," he said at a press conference days after being elected last November, a reference to the former First Lady's consultation with an astrologer during her time in the White House.

Exactly.

To think this idiot grew up in Asia boasting about how "cultured" he is.

Many Asian cultures view constant hand gesturing as inappropriate, rude or even threatening.

There is no way you would say “Ni**er”, unless you were an actor in a play and you had to say it.
That is, yo would not say the word unless you FELT that way!

Same with “Special Olympics” -—

Obama is an ass.

That one’s great! I can’t imagine the frenetic activity right now in the Obama “war room” trying to minimize this. He truly has stepped in it.

But, then again, this IS a “President” who thinks it’s a good idea to go on the “Tonight Show” ...
