President Obama said today at the White House Conference on Bullying Prevention that even a future president doesn't escape the taunts of bullies.
"I have to say that with big ears and the name that I have, I wasn't immune. I didn't emerge unscathed," the president said.
Mr. Obama, who hosted the conference at the White House with First Lady Michelle Obama, added that he had childhood memories of other kids being bullied.
"As adults, we all remember what it was like to see kids picked on in the hallways or in the schoolyard," he said.
President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama posted a video on Facebook today to promote a conference on bullying the White House is hosting tomorrow.

ROFLMAO!
You and me both
Great pic!!!!
IIRC, when GWB threw out the first pitch in Yankee Stadium after 9-11, I believe he was told by Posada “Whatever you do, DON’T BOUNCE IT UP HERE....they’ll boo ya!!”
With MILLIONS watching, he threw a strike.
This conference on bullying, or whatever it is, is calculated to strengthen Obama’s standing with gays and lesbians.
I am shocked. I thought he would have been bullied for being a low IQ sissy.
LOL, I am all too happy and willing to ridicule him because his name is one consonant off from the world’s most notorious terrorist!
But that doesn’t save him from ridicule about his views on:
Energy
Immigration
Abortion
Education
Lack of a birth certificate
Family history
Choice of friends
Capitalism
Race
Religion
Freedom
Food
Fitness
Smoking
Medicine
Terrorism
Military
Choice of a wife
Bowing to foreign leaders
Sports
Throwing style
Clothes
Books
Speaking ability
Purple lips
Community Organizing
Politics
Manhood
Mincing behavior
Patriotism
America
Foreign Relations
Speaking Style
Dependence on teleprompters
Decadence
Nose picking habits
Arrogance
Large ears
Sensitivity to criticism
Other than those things, I am willing to give him a pass. I wouldn’t want to offend him.
Sotero?
:)
Bush was a man. I disagree completely with his views on a lot of things, but he loves his country and didn’t apologize for being a man.
Thank God he was President on 9/11.
Does President Obama know the difference between bullying and teasing? Being teased is not the same as being physically abused.
He should continue to be bullied!!!!
Dumbo from chicago!!!
What a whiner!
Other better people have been ridiculed for their large ears such as Clark Gable and Bing Crosby.
Boo-hoo.
Mommy, they are making fun of my big jug handle ears again.
Boo-hoo. Sob. Sniff.
He just opened himself for more ridicule. Which comedian will use the ears and Odumbo (can I trademark Odumbo - so I can collect the royalities) first? How soon will SNL have people laughing about Odumbo and his ears. This will be good.
That’s ridiculous. I’ve never said anything about the Kenyan-born pro-jihadist anti-American Muzzie asshole that had anything to do with his ears.
Judging from the way he talks over everyone and doesn’t listen, he clearly needs even bigger ears.
Thanks Zakeet.
BWAAHAHAHAHA!!
IBTZ
Now I see, it would be hard to throw while carrying your purse... ;^)
I played softball for many years and can assure you, I know 50 year old women who can throw better than that pansy..... great photo though! ;^)
