How funny would it be if rightwingers started saying, "How DARE he call Kanye West a jackass!"

You just KNOW they're trying to figure out a way to spin this badly for the President.

But in every way, this works out well for Obama.



Moran did the President a favor by releasing this "off-the-record" comment.


Obama looks like a victim of a mainstream media that has run amuck....
....AND... 90% of Americans are saying "right on!" to the remark that was released.

1. For Kanye West's sake, I wish he had said it ON the record.

Seriously, Kanye, this shit has gotten really old. You've become a parody of yourself.

[customerserviceguy]

12. Even his mealy-mouthed apology tonight on Leno

talked about how HIS pain caused somebody else pain. It's all about you, isn't it, Kanye?

2. I wish Obama would come out strongly in favor of breathing.

Maybe these right-wingers would suffocate themselves.

3. I can almost hear the effervescent popping

of tiny little racist freeper heads imploding across the country

4. I was thinking the same thing. GOP spin masters thinking, "damn, if only he was white!"

They're just desperate, but they can't get him on this at all. Rot, you GOP mf'ers.

ABC needs to have a talk about the definition of "off the record."

6. "Barack Obama doesn't care about jackasses."

[pdxmom]

7. They immediately turned it into a race issue and also are going on

about how "unpresidential" he is to comment like that. As if they've forgotten Cheney's outburst or that Joe Wilson obviously failed Miss Manners latest lessons.

8. Who's "they?"

The Freepers? They'd be outraged if Obama said the sun rose in the East and set in the West.

[pdxmom]

9. Sorry. I used "they" because I was looking at a bunch of different

places. Freepers, yes, but also folks on Twitter, and other sites out there. Of course, they may all well be pretty much the same people. The ideas and words are all basically the same.

[madeline_con]

14. Yep, the Moran opined that on ABC. I can't wait to hear how Beck spins it. n/t

[ruggerson]

10. I would bet most of them don't even really know who Kanye West is

unless there is a subculture of rightwinger hip hop fans of which I'm unaware.

[scheming daemons]

11. They certainly remember him saying "Bush hates black people" after Katrina...

..they know THAT about him.
