At the Radio & TV Correspondents Dinner TOTUS gave a stumbling monologue that was supposed to be funny. One time it was funny was when he made some pointed jabs at st hillary.
Everyone knows that Obama has effectively cordoned off Hillary from any substantive duties at the State Dept. by assigning various "special envoys" to key areas, like Amb. Holbrooke (Afghanistan/Pakistan) cited below.
But, it seems to me TOTUS made a special point of noting how Hillary stumbled on her way to the WH, but "fortunately...Hillary's ready to settle."
This seems to be a thinly veiled jab at Hillary's request for Obama help in resolving her campaign debts after she had to "settle" for losing the nomination to him.
Obama: "As most of you know, Hillary broke her elbow on her way to the White House and we all wish her a very speedy recovery.
"I do have to say, though, that while it's been reported as an accident there were some suspicious circumstances. Just before the accident Secret Service spotted Richard Holbrooke spraying WD40 all over the driveway.
"So now on top of the cost of healthcare and energy and the recovery plan, we've got another fiscal problem, fortunately the lawyer's tell me that Hillary's ready to settle."
Hillary comments start at about 3:40 through this YouTube link

Final points: Obama had to heal a serious rift between his and Hillary's supporters last summer in order to get the nomination. It seems he now feels quite comfortable in publicly humiliating her.
1) Any outrage from st hillary's folks?
2) Is he as crazy as his rambling monologue would suggest? With his top domestic issue healthcare failing and poll numbers dropping can he afford to alienate powerful allies like the Clinton crew?

Obama will NOT tolerate anyone upstaging him.
for sure as the day is long it’s the crack talkin’
Once again, President 0bama shows his inner Nero.
What a brat of a man!
The question now is whether hillary will tolerate his public humiliation of her, get ready for more dem dissension leaks, ha ha ha
I don’t think you can pin self hate on Obama.
He hates women.
He hates women.
BINGO!!!
What a brat of a man!
"Inner Nero", - I like it. Seems perfectly appropriate...
Metrosexual?
I’ve created a local shortage of popcorn.
ostammer’s performance at the dinner was abysmal.
He isn’t dealing with reality at all.
He is a narcissistic sociopath.
He uses jokin’ Joe the same way - the butt of many jokes (which is not to say they’re undeserved because they’re not, at least in Biden’s case).
the clintons don’t get mad, they get even......... i’m still waiting for that
