President Obama's 2011 NCAA Brackets
Posted by Jesse Lee on March 16, 2011 at 12:20 PM EDT
As he does every year, the President filled out his brackets predicting the winners of the men's and women's NCAA basketball tournaments, but discussing it with Doris Burke of ESPN, he began with a call to stand with the people of Japan:
One of the things I wanted to do on the show was, as people are filling out their brackets -- this is obviously a national pastime; we all have a great time, its a great diversion. But I know a lot of people are thinking how can they help the Japanese people during this time of need. If you go to usaid.gov -- usaid.gov -- that will list all the nonprofits, the charities that are helping out there. It would be wonderful for people to maybe offer a little help to the Japanese people at this time -- as theyre filling out their brackets. Its not going to take a lot of time. That's usaid.gov. It could be really helpful.

Look at post 26. Those are “brackets”.
So many times I get caught up in the first few sentences of satire and think it is real but I kept looking for the Ha-Ha point and knew it was real. Sad................
Don’t ever underestimate the disgusting filth who now populate this country.
All Obama has to do to get reelected is to offer more goodies and handouts to non-taxpayers.
or should I say overestimate? Doesn’t matter, they are worthless chunks of trash walking among us.
Yes, and he should not be giving one second of his time (as POTUS) to frivolous, trivial matters while catastrophes are busting out abroad. Possibly his handlers decided it would have been worse if he hadn’t mentioned Japan at all.
But a casual reading of the paraphrased version might lead one to conclude that he was referring to the Japanese filling out their brackets, which is even more out-of-touch than what he actually said.
In any case, a verbatim in the video is worth two in the paraphrase. :)
That picture says it all...
Good job, send it to Drudge, I’m sure they would use it...
Seriously, I could care less if he plays basketball, does the NCAA tournament bracket game, plays fantasy football/baseball - whatever.
What rankles me is this clown gets a walk on all the golf, BS’n around, vacations, family vacations etc while if an R were in office even mentioning the tournament at this time would be cause for impeachment proceedings.
And ‘they’ say there is absolutely no bias....
OH yes, IMNSHO he is saying people should help the Japanese to fill out their brackets.....
Another great headline.......
Do you think that was just Obama giving a “shout out” to Japan?
Like you said “What a D$%^%#@”
“what a douche”
Just how disconnected can he be? He is embarrassing to all Americans. Republicans see it and dems ignore it. If he came into a room where I stood. I would get up and friggin’ leave. I might spit and comment on the smell that had just penetrated the air.
Gads, what a fartknocker!
That's about what it adds up to. Isn't it?
Omigosh. I can’t believe the Big-Eared Evil Stoopid One actually said something this stoopid. If he weren’t so evil, he’d almost be laughable.
What a complete and utter self-obsessed pea-brained fool is this twit in the WH.
This little turd is simply contemptible. In extension, so are we for electing such a small, wretched little "man" as our President. I fear America will never recover from this revolting windbag and his policies.
6'2”
thug ball....no more no less....
my sports are hunting and shooting...
but I follow baseball and football....
and soccer is for 3rd world commies....
I like football....it is a battlefield sport....lots of strategy....
Is this a pic of Obama trying to find the new hole that was laid out by the nuclear plant?
I’ve been playing basketball since third grade....I will be 53 next month. Love the sport. No thugs in my rec league.
I like football, too. But a much higher percentage of NFL players are arrested than NBA players. They tend to be more violent.
Pencilling in your golf score is also no impediment to offering help to Japan.
