Transcript of Obama's Interview on Leno 'The Tonight Show'
We all are aware of Obama joking about "special olympics"... but it's worse.
Leno asked him about the presidential dog (official transcript):
Q Wow. And it's, what, a Portuguese water head? (Laughter.) What is it, what kind of dog is it?
THE PRESIDENT: It's not that. (Laughter.)
Q It's not that.
THE PRESIDENT: It's not a "water head." (Laughter.)
Q Whatever they are, I don't know what they are.
THE PRESIDENT: That sounds like a scary dog. (Laughter.) Sort of dripping around the house. (Laughter.)
...
Except it sure didn't sound like "dripping" --- Obama said "tripping." While making "stumbly" motions with his hands.

An incident down here in South Texas may have made the national news, where some chowder-headed employees of the Corpus Christi State School were organizing fight matches between the mentally-challenged clients, has many down here in a heightened awareness of such incidents:

Some arrests have been made with more to come.
and Othugo stated he was a Professor of Constitutional Law- he warn’t no professor he was a Senior Lecturer, part time at that.
Exactly. This whole Special Olypics “gaffe” is a planned distraction from Barry screwing up the economy and everybody is falling for it, including a lot of Freepers.
Hegel, Machiavelli and Milton Erickson(inventor of Neural Linguistic Programming) would be proud of Barry.
If the Democrat Party of America and their leader, Barrack Hussein Obama thinks that it is acceptable and entirely appropriate to equate general poor performance in life
with Special Needs Children who compete seriously in the Special Olympics to the best of their ability - and many train year around for it and pour their hearts into it
If the Democrats think that it is all one big joke and absolutely FINE for everyone in the nation, nay, the world, to use that type of metaphor
then why, pray tell, does Obama not get on television and state to the world Ok, I admit, my handling of AIG made us all look like we were competing in the Special Olympics
Couldnt we all then just laugh it off and move on? No big deal?
SLAM. DUNK. SET. MATCH. CASE CLOSED.
OH, AND WE STILL HAVE NOT EVEN GOT TO THE WATER HEADS REMARK YET ..THIS IS A TWO-FER.
OK, guys. Let’s only see the reality and not go on a witch hunt here. There was nothing in that exchange that was wrong. Jay got the dog name wrong, and it does sound kind of gross. Instead of Portuguese Water Dog or Hound or whatever, he said Portuguese Water Head. So Pres Obama said that it sounds scary, like the dog would go around dripping through the house. Nothing really to go on there, except for the fact that we may not have really wanted to see our President sitting around being cool, so soon after he began his term.
