President Obama Jokes About Being a Bad Bowler: 'It's Like the Special Olympics"
ABC News Senior White House Correspondent Jake Tapper
March 19, 2009 8:56 PM
The first appearance by a sitting president on "The Tonight Show" may well end up being the last. ... in his taping with Jay Leno Thursday afternoon, attempted to yuk it up with the funnyman, and ended up insulting the disabled. ...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 ..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.

Hummmmmmm..... shades of other 'RAT comments in the past, of which these are just the tip of the iceberg:
B. O. just echoed the theme in posters like this that were distributed by Democrats back in the 2004 campaign:
ALgore APOLOGIZES: Vice President Al Gore sent out a letter apologizing for his embarrassing "extra chromosome" jibe at Oliver North supporters ("the extra-chromosome right wing."), saying he had "learned an important lession [sic]." (Source: National Review, December 31, 1994.)
Maureen Dowd may have spoken more correctly than she knew when she identified pro-lifers as "extra-chromosome conservatives." Jerome Lejeune discovered the extra chromosome that causes Down Syndrome and devoted his career to treating the children who suffer from it. He also happens to have been a powerful advocate for the unborn. Maybe she could call him an "extra-chromosome conservative" as well. ...During a recent television appearance, New York Times pundette Maureen Dowd said something that should have effectively ended her career. In an on-air discussion with HBO's Bill Maher, Dowd said that those who oppose the expansion of funding for stem-cell research come from..the "extra-chromosome conservatives." If anyone fails to take in the full meaning of Dowd's statement, she was referring to the condition that causes Down Syndrome. In other words, if you oppose stem-cell research, you must be as stupid, unsophisticated, and laughable as someone who suffers from Down Syndrome. Wow, that's funny stuff right there. 2004-American Spectator
Of course if TOTUS had been on Leno with his puppet, he'd have never told him to make such a dumb remark. TOTUS has its own BLOG, so it will no doubt have some comments about this goof-up.
...Will yer be at the tea party on the morrow???
Hola. How’s Genny? Any more bee incidents?
Hiya.
A second hand apology is not an apology. No matter how moving it was, it just doesn’t go anywhere.
Excited for Saturday?
I can’t wait! I hope there is a good turnout.
LOL
HEY, BARACK, DID YOU HEAR THIS ONE?
Barack Obama, a Special Olympian, and an illegal alien walk into a bowling alley in Phoenix. The illegal alien has his ass deported by Joe Arpaio, and Obama has his ass kicked by the Special Olympian as the Secret Service cheers him on.
Yep. I’m leaving my house at 10:00 so I can be there around noon. Bringing my camera too so I can take pictures.
LOL
Thai Prime Minister Surayud Chulanont (C) gives a traditional Thai greeting to Thai Muslim teachers during his visit to a school in the troubled Thai southern province of Yala, 08 November 2006. Thailand's army-installed premier visited the troubled Muslim-majority south 08 November, saying he supported the Islamic way of life but ruled out separation from the mainly Buddhist kingdom.
*LMAO*
