Apparently, President Barack Obama thought that Jessica Simpson's weight was something he needed to make fun of during his pre-Super Bowl interview with Matt Lauer on NBC Sunday. Seriously. Obama called Jessica Simpson a fatty on national TV.
Lauer displayed for the audience the cover of a recent issue of the tabloid entertainment magazine US Weekly that featured the President's wife and daughters and also had an insert photo pushing a story about singer Simpson.
As he viewed the cover, Obama decided to smack the singer down for "losing a weight battle."

Just WHY would he HAVE to READ what Matt LAuer put in front of him??????? Obama is a tool.
rofl. Replied to the wrong thread. Ugh.
Jessica is a white woman....no foul here....Now if he’d called Oprah or Aretha a tub of lard then it would have been sexist and racist.
O-M-G!!!!!
She’s a freaking SIZE EIGHT! How many “average” American women would kill to achieve a size eight?
I can only speculate on what size Michelle wears, I don’t think she would fit into Jess’ clothes, that’s all I’m sayin’
FReegards, GG
This stuff happens when a person is fixated on how perfect and wonderful he is. I blame the media somewhat for this gaffe. Apparently the new POTUS is a gaffe prone as his VP!!! However, this too will be covered up.
Oh, and one other thing. Pres. Barry H. Obama is not really a very nice guy underneath all the hoopla. I think his manners reflect 15 years of listening to the non-Christian rantings of a lunatic preacher.
I guess no Universal health care for her!
“Tabloid” rumors about the contentious Obama marriage did say he puts down Michelle for her weight
Maybe a grain of truth
What a dismal message he must be sending to his daughters
I don’t know they always said “Bushes on verge of divorce”; “Bush drinking again”, etc....
How do you think the 30% who are overweight - including Oprah, will view this little snarky comment? He will make himself a one term President.
WRONG! He said, "Who's in a weight battle apparently..." while pointing at the headline held up by Lauer. Let's keep it real.
except the tabloid did use a lot of quotes from Obama’s own musings from his own “ghost written” memoir, about past problems in his marriage and power struggles with the ambitious Michelle over his political career
She’s in for an interesting 4 years as Harvard Law grad turned into Commander Mom
Yeah, if that’s what he did, even giving him the benefit of the doubt, he doesn’t think real fast on his feet.
Between thoughts about “rusty trombones” I’m thinking why in the heck does this guy care about getting bumped off a cover of a magazine? He’s been on every magazine cover to hit the stands in the last year and probably most of them at least twice. Is he that starved for the attention?! What an @$$.
Now, where was I? Oh yeah!... rusty trombones... rusty trombones... rusty trombones....
The Fat Chick
Zero is a scrawny little prick with big ears. Daily workouts at the gym my @$$. More likely sneaking out in back of the gym and lighting up.
See Michelle-Omarosa? BABY GOT BACK!
Obama's $100 a pound Wagyu steak hors d'oeuvres, washed down with a Gold Flakes Supreme vodka cocktail...
Keeps you trim and alert for the tough job of stealing and spending the peasants' tax dollars!
