Not everybody was pleased with President Obama's uncharacteristic line on the Today Show, spoken in the pre-school hours Tuesday morning, that he wants some "ass to kick" in the Gulf oil crisis.
Becky Quick, who co-hosts Squawk Box with lead anchor Joe Kernen and co-host Carl Quintanilla, slapped Obama for using unpresidential language in an interview he knew would be aired as children prepared for school.
"If you're the president of the United States and you go on the Today Show which is a morning show, where you're going to have a lot of kids sitting around watching this, I think you choose your words more carefully," said Quick. "Using the A word when you are on the Today Show talking with Matt Lauer, yeah, that disturbs me. But I also think that this is a way of trying to prove that I'm mad, to do exactly what everybody's been pushing me to do, and it doesn't ring true."
Obama has been under pressure in the media and even among his friends, notably film director Spike Lee, to air more passion when addressing the oil crisis. But Quick, who said she likes the president, said he sullied the office on the Today Show.

man her butt is as big as Delaware.
Sure...yet the only mental picture for me is looks like Urkel, talks like Mr T.
I wonder how they felt when their co-worker referred to the sitting president as a monkey.
At least she later apologized: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmUH9IVx9ak&feature=related
Yup, he is truly a classless thug.
?
There’s nothing wrong with a big butt; just don’t wrap in a sausage casing.
Could you post the link on Youtube titled “Kassie kicks monsters ass”? I’d take Kassie over obama any day.
Are you cereal?? (stole that from my kids) He would be naught but a tiny grease spot if he tried it!
Wait till he shows how little class he really has.
I can think of at least a dozen other ways he has ‘sullied the office’ just over the last month. It seems to never end.
I have to wonder at times - does no one ever take him aside and tell him to stop doing/saying certain things b/c they seem soooo unPresidential? Or does no one really care?
“Hardball” would seem to me to be a great place to make an apology if you never wanted another living soul to see it.
? to your ?
Yes but characteristic of this individual occupying the White House. 0bama's foul mouth is evidence of his foul mind.
I am not connected to this spill in any way...but I’ll take responsibility for it. Send Obama to kick my ass. I’ll be waiting on the patio.
