[Thrill]

1. Journalism is gone in this country

Off the record remarks are no longer off the record to these pricks

[IndependentDem]

2. ouch. nt

[Hutzpa]

3. I don't mind the President calling

me a jackass, I've actually got his attention now, so I have to buckle up.

My feeling is, Joe Wilson is a jackass too, just would not say that in public.

:evilgrin:

[Raine1967]

4. I can see it now:

Teabaggers March on DC to Support the oppression of Kanye West!

Free speech for all!


(not)

[mscuedawg]

5. That just proves that Obama is NOT a liar...

...b/c Kayne IS a jackass..

[Occam Bandage]

6. I have never agreed with Obama more wholeheartedly.

Love Kanye's music. Think he's one of the biggest d-bags in the music industry.

[msallied]

7. I love him more than ever now!

[SpartanDem]

8. Don't these assholes know the meaning of off the record?

They never did this shit to Bush

[quantass]

9. LOL..Off the Records == Record, Videotape, and Transmit over the Net

and he was definitely right..good for him

[Ikonoklast]

10. I stand with the president on this one.

Obama calls it correctly.

[blm]

11. Kanye West agrees with Obama about how he acted....and THAT is why he made such a public apology.

I call my husband a jackass ONLY when he acts like a jackass and he always laughs and agrees.

[Thrill]

12. Whoever sold it to TMZ needs to have their credentials pulled

[AspenRose]

13. If they think this is somehow going to hurt the president, they're wrong

because just about everybody agrees with him on this!

Another example of having good sense regarding people and their behavior.

[HopeOverFear]

15. That don't mean they won't keep trying. It's their mission to nail him on something

and they're not going to stop until they do.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

14. So ABC not only tweets but leaks audio of OTR comments by the President?

[Parker CA]

16. This makes me admire this guy even more. He knew this would come out. I love the line "except for

PETA." in regards to the fly episode. Hilarious and honest president. ABC needs to get reamed and to have their interview privileges revoked for a good bit of time. Off the record EPIC FAIL for ABC.

[RememberWellstone]

17. That was Obama at his best!!

Great sense of humor in a tense moment...too bad kanye West is classless and clueless, he could take some grace lessons from the President.B-)
