So says the pool report from his gay and lesbian fundraiser at L.A.'s Beverly Wilshire tonight. Incredibly awkward.
Pool reporter Todd Gilman of the Dallas Morning News writes:
He warmed up with some jokes about the first lady’s appearance on the Ellen DeGeneres show. “Michelle outdoes me in pushups as well,” he said, after saying that she’s taken some criticism on her technique “because she doesn’t go all the way down” – a line that he let hang, naughtily, provoking laughter from the crowd.
White House officials didn't immediately respond to an inquiry about whether the line was correctly interpreted.
Here's a fuller transcript from the White House:
I want to thank my wonderful friend who accepts a little bit of teasing about Michelle beating her in pushups -- (laughter) -- but I think she claims Michelle didn’t go all the way down. (Laughter.) That's what I heard. I just want to set the record straight -- Michelle outdoes me in pushups as well. (Laughter.) So she shouldn’t feel bad. She's an extraordinary talent and she's just a dear, dear friend -- Ellen DeGeneres. Give Ellen a big round of applause.

I thought someone claimed there were a couple of boy toys on the WH staff who had that as their primary duties just off the Oval office.
How far we have sunk as a Nation . . . well I wonder . . . D.C. has always been a nest of demonized vipers.
Actually I think you have a good point....he doesn’t care.
I expect he’ll get worse if it really looks like he’ll get booted out in November.
D-Day to this POS is like any other "D-Day". "D" as in D-file, D-base, D-moralize, D-stabilize, and DESTROY.
Can I just comment on the fact that our executive branch did NOTHING to commemorate D-Day today outside of a Tweet... A Tweet?
So many people died in defense of liberty on June 6. 1944- dying in droves to free multiple nations from Tyranny and death. For it to not be recognized by the leader of the free world in any substantive way — boy!
It’s just so disrespectful in my opinion. He lies so often, about everything, yet he can’t act like he’s touched by the massive sacrifice of thousands of American soldiers...
The sooner this half-witted, shameless excuse for a wannabe man leaves the White House, the better. This country doesn’t want to hear a gay president complaining about his butch wife giving poor lewinsky.
From the sound of it he wasn’t talking about getting a Lewinsky he was saying the Wookie wouldn’t go down on Ellen Degenerate.
He is trashy. I am really sick of everything being gutter like with this crowd it is embarrassing Animal House at best.
Animal House is the perfect analogy. 0bama is the first Animal House president.
wow, he’ll be a real danger. Carter is just an embarrassment but this one, with the intel leaks, could be really dangerous.
Had to look that one up. Goofus definitely applies.
It’s unreal. I remember arguments with people 10 years ago saying “No way in hell will we ever elect another idiot like Clinton.” But as bad as he was (and he was spectacularly horrid) this rocket surgeon makes him look good side by side. No, I do not like Billy either. I’m just making the comparison.
Yes you can . . .
Feeling sorry for Michelle Obama is like feeling sorry for Elizabeth Edwards: you know she’s an awful person who is a full participant in the agenda to destroy our country ... but still, married to *that* ...
It’s not like he hasn’t tried to teach her the proper technique with personal demonstrations on Reggie Love.
“Now, watch how I do this on Reggie...pay attention, Michelle.”
“They always overreach.”
They always overeach while not getting their expected ‘reach around’!( corrected it for you)
Not even Bill Clinton would have ever said anything as crude about Hillary!
...but then Hillary doesn't do push-ups.
What a stain of American history this creature is.
No. He's cool. /s
Can you imagine Ronnie saying something like that about Nancy? George about Babs? W about Laura?
I can't believe this classless POS is POTUS.
