The first appearance by a sitting president on "The Tonight Show" may well end up being the last.
President Obama, in his taping with Jay Leno Thursday afternoon, attempted to yuk it up with the funnyman, and ended up insulting the disabled.
Towards the end of his approximately 40-minute appearance, the president talked about how he's gotten better at bowling and has been practicing in the White House bowling alley.
He bowled a 129, the president said.
"That's very good, Mr. President," Leno said sarcastically.
It's "like the Special Olympics or something," the president said.
When asked about the remark, the White House said the president did not intend to offend.
"The president made an off-hand remark making fun of his own bowling that was in no way intended to disparage the Special Olympics," White House deputy press secretary Bill Burton said. "He thinks the Special Olympics is a wonderful program that gives an opportunity for people with disabilities from around the world."
Facing tough questions about the performance of his Treasury Secretary, $165 million in bonuses for AIG officials and anticipating a fight over his $3.55 trillion budget, the president has not had a particularly good week, and it's unlikely this will help matters.

This guy is just such an embarassment.
This then must supplant Algore’s “two Y chromosome” comment?

They accused Rush, falsely, of making fun of M.J. Fox -— but Obama can do this?

I would guess there are plenty of Special Olympics participants who could out bowl me (and Obama). My son (autism) participates in S.O. It’s hard to keep dry eyes at the competitions. B.O. is a putrid hateful man.
He’s just saying what the Democrats think of the disabled.
It won’t fit over those ears!
What until the Barack Obama’s Teleprompter’s Blog gets ahold of the story.

Gotta love Rush’s TOTUS line yesterday. Now there’s a blogger dedicated to speaking on behalf of the teleprompter. Much-needed fun during these trying times.
He went on to say, “It could be worse. It’s not like I bowl like Trig Palin will.”
OBAMA HATES RETARDS
No offense to dung.
Even Imus referred to him as jug ears the other day. I was surprised. Imus and his crew have said some nasty negative things about BHO lately but still he says things like “I think his head is in the right place” or words to that effect. How hard it is to accept the truth.
They often say things like, “Well, winning a Republican Primary is like winning the Special Olympics — you're still Retarded”
They say things like that all the time.
Now, the term “tard” comes up here, in FR, allot.
I prefer terms like “idiot” “moron” “stupid” etc. -— and I sure don't want to be part of the “politically correct” crowd.
But I think we can drill this home on Obama. He went on Leno looking for “goodwill” looking to extend his “honeymoon” and he made an ass of himself.
For pure political purposes, I would ask that conservatives be careful with the words “tard” and “retard” and other such jokes for awhile.
I think Obama will get roasted for this, and we don't want to look like hypocrites. Most Social Workers are Democrats. Many who work in charities and support groups for the disabled are Democrats. Obama just managed to tick off part of his own base. It is not surprising. Watch "Comedy Central" when any Black comedian is on. They make jokes about the disabled all the time, because THEY can get away with it. This was Obama and his "Chicago Street" thug personality blended with his "Harvard Snob" personality. Both personalities will rub the wrong way, with MANY people.
Ha! Best one yet!
Forrest Gump was a hero not due to great mental ability, but due to great mental COURAGE!
The ability to know right from wrong, even under pressure, the ability to save your friend from enemy fire, to do your best to help in every situation, these things are more important than the elitist crap they teach in our Universities or what kids learn in the streets, these days.
Stupid is as stupid does, and Obama is truly stupid, and very small!
These people are vile. People with down syndrome are the perfect victim, they only know love. Anyone who uses this condition for anything but kindness is a coward, bottom line. He will NEVER get my respect as a human being.
