Obama cracks about "waterheads" (cracks about disabled persons even worse than thought)
Wall Street Journal ^ | MARCH 20, 2009 | White House transcript

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.)

...

Perfunction blog reports:

Except it sure didn't sound like "dripping" --- Obama said "tripping." While making "stumbly" motions with his hands.

For information on the tragic hydrocephalic disability, look at google or wikipedia for Hydrocephalus, but WARNING MAY BE DISTURBING..

For the record: It was Leno starting the "water head" thing. But Obama obviously referred to the disability. Full in swing with his other gaffe on the same appearance about "special olympics".

No surprise that Obama has contempt for disabled people. He after all would have liked to bill disabled vets for their amputations and supports the killing of "undesirable" disabled babies...

Mongoloid babies, like one of my mothers friends kid, A lady that used to sit for us, do not live long.

I must have been 9, He was a year or two my junior, and at first I picked on the kid - I learned compassion when I let the kid be himself, His speech, and motor skills were not as bad as most cases, Long story short, I was the only friend he ever had. He died a few years later, anyway He taught me about the value of life. I guess Obama never learned that lesson.

If 0 can suck others into making light of the disabled, he thinks he’ll be able to convince them and the taxpayers that their lives are not worth spending 2 cents on. Kind of like “late” third term abortions.

Seems like a standard Hitlerian philosophy. The weak cannot contribute, they have no worth and are a burden to the state, therefore, they shall receive no health care, or food, or water. Welcome to Amerika.

Obama’s probably never even heard of Hydrocephalus.

OTHUGA . . .

dripping bloody priorities . . . tripping around decency as though tiptoeing drunkenly through a mine field . . .

clueless that the gaping mouth of hell eagerly awaits such Godless insanities.

I’ve been around quite a few years and never heard of a “water head” in that context. We’ve heard of “water on the brain” from the ‘70s and before, but that was only an old slang for the condition and wasn’t considered to be a joke. Where did Leno come up with that? ...something from his neighborhood, perhaps?

My son has special needs due to epilepsy, I’m sorry it is a big deal! Obama has DEMONSTRATED a total contempt for disabled veterans, now his views on other disadvantaged people comes into question. To date his presidency appears to be all about Obama.

I will say this, I don’t think any of the Republican candidates would have ever thought let alone made such a remark, I wonder what the Governator thinks about this?

i’m with you . I just found out from reading this article that Othugo almost barely passed most of his law courses @Harvard-, read his comparison about EXPLODING TOASTERS and MORTGAGES. I’m not a lawyer but Othugo is a piece of art
I wouldn’t even want to hang in the barn.

I am still waiting for the dog. I think it is cruel to promise your kids a puppy after putting them through all the campaigning and don’t make good on it. Personally, my kids would have had the puppy by the weekend.

He and Michelle are such snakes. They make a big deal about getting the dog, then they put on this big show about what breed and the fact that the dog needs to come from a shelter or rescue. How convenient to pick a rare breed that has probably a ZERO chance of ever ending up in a shelter.

They don’t actually ever get he dog, probably because it would take the spotlight away from Him, but they can always say they tried.

And doesn’t anyone find it odd that not ONE breeder has offered up a puppy?

I know I’m sounding ridiculous over the dog thing, but it is just another lie.
