President Obama pokes fun at Hillary during speech at the White House Correspondents Dinner

http://www.c-span.org/video/?c4591476/president-obama-berns-hillary

That's an interesting picture President Obama chose to use for Hillary's slogan.



From Wikipedia: In Greek mythology Sisyphus (/ˈsɪsᵻfəs/;[2] Greek: ?ί?????, Sísuphos) was the king of Ephyra (now known as Corinth). He was punished for his self-aggrandizing craftiness and deceitfulness by being forced to roll an immense boulder up a hill, only to watch it roll back down, repeating this action for eternity.

Is this just a coincidence? What do you think?

I thought it was pretty funny.

She got smacked tonight, including the part about Aunt Hillary who doesn't really know how facebook works.

attending the dinner - to a room full of applause.

And he made that snarky comrade comment about Bernie.

It's all tongue and cheek - having a little bit of fun with both of our candidates.

Just my take.
