When George W. Bush was president, there were journalists who devoted themselves to cataloguing his verbal pratfalls. Slate, the online magazine, even had a whole feature called "Bushism of the Day," which led to a series of books. I guess with The Messiah, the gaffes are so numerous that no one can chronicle them all. But this one, reported by ABC's Jake Tapper is especially embarrassing. Teleprompter Jesus really is a retard, without his teleprompter.
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.
Obama quickly called Special Olympics chairman Tim Shriver to grovel.
Appearing on "Good Morning America," Shriver "pointed out that in Detroit there's a Special Olympian who has bowled three perfect games." Now that's just mean.
