Would-be reality TV stars can crash the White House.

I bet Zero and his cronies have no clue who Mickey Rooney is. Anything after 1968 is ancient history.

It's a great big universe/And we're all really puny/We're just tiny little specks/About the size of Mickey Rooney

Stay classy, Barack.

Meanwhile- something tells me the president wouldn’t know who Mickey Roony is- someone would have to give him a briefing on him first..

Typical old white guy.

I’d love to see a meeting between Don Rickles and Obozo.

It’s irrelevant. You don’t go to meet the Prez without an appointment.

If he did, he’s a doofus.

Having once been rudely treated by Rooney, I’m not awash in sympathy for him.

was in Washington as an honoree of a war veterans group


If he had been in town to honor the Black Panthers that Obama cut loose at the polling place he could have gotten in.

Mickey made Tiger Woods seem gay back in the day. The guy got more tail than a French fur trapper. Obama probably felt intimidated.

i remember an injured Mickey Rooney hiding live grenades under his armpits once, I'd turn him away too.

Rooney should have introduced himself as a master of dialectic and critical theory. That would have gotten him in.

Mickey Rooney and Buddy Hackett once hijacked an airplane. That’s good enough reason to lock them out of the White House.
