That is because with gays everything is about sex and they never get past that Jr. High attitude.
Nolte left out the part that made the joke perfect and useful for the occasion, it was a homosexual/lesbian fundraiser.
To work in this joke and then play shocked for the folks in flyover country, sure seems like a hip, audience connecting, coincidence of a mistake.
I’m suspicious.
I think you are right. He knew that was going too far, and was unexpected.
When I first heard the story I believed it purposeful, but at the time I didn’t realize Michelle had had an actual pushup contest with Ellen.
When you do a push up, you don’t go all the way down, otherwise you would be collapsing your chest on the floor. Therefore it was a stupid joke and he knew it. He was angry because he thought everyone was laughing at him.
The media will never stop protecting this jerk, even if they look stupid.
This is exactly what happens when the Presidency of the United States is degraded by a narcissistic media whore who will do anything to get his face in front of a camera. Obama is reaping what he has sown.
Nevertheless, Hussein is a horses ass. Probably always has been...and will always be one.
A teletubby.....
You are being too kind while forgetting that Obama is 100% pro fag and is quite clearly in my opinion a packer himself.
He knew exactly what he was saying as he was playing to his audience.
The frustration Michelle will experience is indescribable. She KNOWS Obama was alluding to her method, or lack thereof, in the performance of a certain sex act. She can't prove it, though, because he'll cop that famous and nauseating ‘innocent/surprised’ look he's so good at and swear it was merely a playful jab at her push-up technique. What's she supposed to do? Demonstrate that she can go all the way down?
So yes, she's scary. But don't discount the role Obama has played in turning her crank. She'd be no fun to live w, but I guarantee he'd be even less.
> Obama is clearly making a joke about Michelle cheating in push-ups.
Yes, I think he expected mild laughter, but from the nature and length of the laughter began to realize that something was wrong. At that point he may have realized what the problem was, and was disconcerted a bit.
Nice!
Shame on you. It’s blatently racist to accuse Obama of telling an “off-color” joke..
It was an LGBTQ audience. He degraded the office by going and he and his wife deserve what they’re getting. Hope it was worth the $$$ they rake in for it.
It does not matter if he meant it as a bad joke or not, republicans will somehow get blamed for it either way.
I think you have a point as that is their MO. Especially since it was programmed into a teleprompter, whatever that takes.
This tells me that, assuming he knew the joke ahead of time, that this guy is a clueless fool for not realizing how the joke was going to go .. down.
IMHO the frown was just an attempt at plausible deniability. Obama has never deservered the Office of POTUS, which include the duties of Head of State. He doesn’t represent our nation in any sort of a dignified way. This “incident” is just another example of why he merits removal from office this November.
He is clearly aware of the “joke” as you can see he’s almost twitching on the left of his mouth and then smiles. He’s nothing but low life scum. There may be a flying ashtray in his future.
