See the connection? Neither did we.

Classic, JD, just classic.

You would think by now that lgm’s handlers at Kos, DU, and HuffHo are ready to disown him for being “too far gone”.

Word has it the White House will send an emmissary requesting that lgm to STFU.

Pres. Obama, If you’re reading this, I’ll offer my services as your joke writer for the next 4 years for just $100, even though I’m a conservative and hate every single idea you’ve produced. I simply cannot stand to see the Office of the Presidency treated this way! I would consider it my DUTY to make certain your big ol’ feet stay out of your mouth, insofar as I was able.

I ain’t doin’ it for Biden though… He’s hopeless!

Bumpersticker opportunity:
“Hi, I’m Barack Obama- Special Olympian!” along with that dumb smiling Barack photo MM always posts when he says something stupid. Pure comic genius!

BTW-if anyone want’s to jump on me for that it’s called “satire”. I’m using his own words against him.

What COULD make this sweeter is if he agree to the bowling game, get his butt whipped, walk over to shake hands afterwards, and have his hand refused by the Special Olympian who issued the butt-whumpin’! Oh Lordy, if you’re up there in heaven, please let me live long enough to see that happen! Forgive me for my blaspheming words on November 5th please. I didn’t really mean what I said!

Damn! And people thought Bush said stupid things when he said “Nu-cu-lur”

BTW-I heard someone on talk radio in LA today say that Bush said “Mission Accomplished!” about Iraq… Do they ever get tired of quoting something he DIDN’T actually say? I mean, if you’re gonna bash the man, there are so many other good choices, why stick with one which is blatently false?

Carter was attacked by a swimming rabbit while fishing and he never ONCE said his hunting or fishing skils were “like a Special Olympian”… and he’s been rated as one of the worst leaders we’ve had in the last 100 years! Sure he was ridiculed for it, but he took it like a MAN and was big enough to laugh about it later. I will give Carter credit for that…

For BO, there’s simply no excuse for that joke. None. A man with an Ivy League education should not poke fun AT THE EXPENSE OF MENTALLY-HANDICAPPED PEOPLE! Ever! There is no “bowling like a Special Olympian” if you bowled a 129! My WIFE hates bowling, and bowls almost a 150 every time.

Of course, since we’ve never even seen Obama’s actual, um, COLLEGE TRANSCRIPTS, perhaps he does belong in that category?

For someone the MSM told us “has never placed a foot wrong politically”, he sure could be nicknamed “Dances With Two Left Feet”, couldn’t he?

I think I can hear Shillary cackling all the way from China!

I’ve had a chance to watch the video of the “joke” and it looks like he’s not saying his bowling is like the special olympics, but rather Leno’s response to the 129 score is what’s like the S.O. Telling him he did good to his face but turning aside to laugh.

If that’s the case, it’s even worse because he’s implying that when anyone cheers on and congratulates these courageous, hard-working men and women, it’s not sincere and everyone really thinks they’re a pitiful joke. Very catty and shallow on his part. He’s showing his true colors here.
