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."

He hasn't even done a good job with the simple, day-to-day stuff..I hope Biden was wrong, and he isn't 'tested'...
How cute it all is!
Wow, what puppy will he get?
What magazines covers will he grace???
I cant stand it! Squeeel!
This guy hasnt been tested yet, and when time comes he is going to fail miserably.
Maybe looking at a radiated American city will sober up some that drank the Obama-ade. I dont know, maybe not even that would do it.

Well, you can be that way if you want, but I CAN HARDLY WAIT to see him on the cover of TIGER BEAT! (/sarc)

So far Obama has used the Presidency to attack Rush Limbaugh and Jessica Simpson.
Guess U.S. private citizens will be a ready target for the president.
If Urkel and Gilbert Gottfried had a kid together it would look just like. . . . ;)
I saw a magazine article a couple of years ago that pretty convincingly analyzed the difference between "glamor" models and those working in haute couture. The former are very pretty and work in advertising for day-to-day products and catalogs; they look like women. The latter, the burden of the article showed, are chosen by couturiers precisely because they resemble teenaged boys.
The houses of couture are strutting their designers' homosexuality on a global stage -- and making a lot of women models physically sick in the process. A lot of haute-couture models can't get their periods or have children and have serious health issues, which is not to mention anorexia. They are truly suffering for their trade at the hands of misogynistic alpha gays.
#2 & #5 have said it succinctly - this is high class for a narcissistic leftist, one so removed from the reality of our world that it is breathtakingly scary. We are being ruled (not governed) by a personality that totally depends on his fanatical staff. They feel harshly constrained by the Constitution and will subvert it every chance they get.
She’s losing the weight battle? So is his wife.
and, they are known collectively as Alinskyites
Apparently the big “O” Oprah is also in a weight battle!
We will see if the lefties in hollywood will be insulted by this or not? Probably not as ‘The One’ can do no wrong!
B.H.O. = P.O.S.

I just watched the interview. (the event comes in the last minute of it) I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt on this one, all he did was read the headline above Jessica Simpson’s photo.
As always, he can’t go unscripted. His words were not extemporaneous comments. Look at the cover, you’ll see the words ‘weight battle’ right above Jessica Simpson’s photo.
Beyond that. I’m cutting him no slack.
I watched the video and he was joking about the headline. If George Bush had said the same thing everyone here would be defending him. This isn’t worth discussing and makes all those concerned about this look petty. I’d expect similar comments to what Im reading here on the DU. Nothing un-presidential here.
Whta does he call the butt on that bow-legged wife of his?
He has already failed with a few of the Southern states that were hit hard by the ice storm. Little to no sign of FEMA nor any help for those without power, food, water, etc.
Where are the national news outlets to report on one of his failures in the first couple of weeks in office?
Of course, he's made other major mistakes but this should be huge, too.
He’s been tested in Kentucky. Notice the media ignoring the fact that is doing nightly parties while the people without power are possibly dying in their homes.
He’s the hot house pres, don’t you know. Can’t be going where he might feel a chill.
First Rush, now Jessica Simpson. Who will he insult next from his bully pulpit?
His arrogance is showing.
I wonder what he and Michelle say about the rest of us behind closed doors?
Perhaps he ought to learn a bit of diplomacy. After all, isn’t that his main promise.
He’ll engage in diplomacy with the world’s murderous scum.
Too bad he didn’t think first before he made his hurtful comment.
