"I did see 'The Butler,' and I did tear up," said the president during an interview with radio personalities Tom Joyner and Sybil Wilkes. "I teared up just thinking about not just the butlers who have worked here in the White House, but an entire generation of people who were talented and skilled, but because of Jim Crow, because of discrimination, there was only so far they could go. And yet, with dignity and tenacity, they got up and worked every single day, and put up with a whole lot of mess because they hoped for something better for their kids."

Osama Obama’s secretly pi$$ed by the fact that that butler would have made a better President...a *much* better President...than he has.And that butler didn't have a drop of white blood in him either.

Hmmm because of Jim Crow laws- and what party voted on keeping Jim Crow laws? Oh that would be your party Mr. President.

Good Lord, the top butler in the world, the White House butler to Eisenhower, JFK and Johnson, Nixon, Reagan, the leaders of the free world during the peak of the Cold War, that is the second rate job that the man had to just settle for?

The current White House Butler to the President of the United States, is probably looking for a more respectable job, as we speak, I can see him getting drunk and just being too humiliated to show up for work, now that he has discovered what an inadequate loser he is.

Barack teared up because he just realized that he has only 2 1/2 more years to screw up the country.

Martin Luther King Jr. would have told to to be the best butler he could be. Rush played one of his speeches today and told people that whatever job they have (he used a street sweeper) but to be the best at all you do. It was a very good and inspiring speech.

o never inspires he just lies and complains.

Low information voters think they voted for the smart black President from "24". They got the "three card monte dealer" from Chicago.

The sad thing in the movie is a big lie mixed with big truth..like Satan quoting scripture Jesus in the desert the left mixes truth with lies to deceive and attack...

My hope is that someday, even Obama will get up and work, every single day.
