    I agree! Just because he's the president doesn't mean he shouldn't be able to speak his mind, albeit with tact, but he's an american like every one of us, and he has that right. I think people should get off his case, he was just saying what everyone else was thinking. Good lord, people make an opion into MUCH more then it needs to be, wo give a S*** if it was the president who was giving that opinion. Jeez!

    obama should have better things to do

    Shouldn't we all?

    I find it funny that most of you are saying he should stick to his job and stop
    Commenting on things that don't concern him.

    Isn't that what we're doing?

    Since when is it not okay to call a jacka$$ a jacka$$?

    Just wondering.

    Personally I don't see anythign wrong with Obama saying this. To all the people who think that he is more important things to do, you're right but keep in mind he didn't stay up all night researching this and wasteing time. It took him 5 seconds to say. Kanye West is a Jackass, that's it, we all have more important things to worry about then Kanye West and Taylor Swift but hey if it takes 5 seconds to say who cares. As long as that's where he leaves it and doesn't dig deeper.

    Obama has no class. He never did. What do you expect to come out of the mouth of a guttersnipe anyway?

    Hello George. Welcome back.

    Hello George. Welcome back.

    WHY would you call Obama a guttersnipe?
    The definition of guttersnipe is :
    A child who spends most of his time in the streets especially in slum areas.
    I am shocked that you would say something so derogatory.

    I agree Artlady: he's sitting there saying that Obama has no class, yet here he is using derogatory language. Hypocrite much.

    That's what I like... consistency .

    His guard was down because he did not know the mike was live . Hardly being "real" .
    Nixon's tapes prove that in unguarded moments most Presidents turn out to be more "real" .

    The President has not proven himself to be any more articulate without the aid of TOTUS (teleprompter) then President Bush was.

    I will give Mr. Obama this: He's an equal opportunity insulter. He didn't pull his punches any more for a hip-hop artist than he did for the Harvard cops. Now we wait to see if he invites Kanye up for a beer.

    Haha this was funny. Everyone makes mistakes when they're speaking. I see no reason to make a big deal out of it. We can't expect Mr. Obama to be perfect. He is human, correct?

    For once, I agree with Obama :)

    I wonder why this is not a racist or sexist issue ? In any case the good thing that came of it is the real class that Beyonce showed . ;)

    As Conan O'brien put it:

    This is the first time since "Yes we can" that the President has come up with something that most of the American people can get behind.


    Edit: I had to paraphrase O'brien
