Too good to be true…

Last night President Barack Obama appeared on the Jay Leno show, marking the first time any president sitting in office appeared on a late night talk show, and royally fucked up.

He was poking fun at his bowling skills and said that he wasn’t good enough even for the Special Olympics. Funny, pretty funny.

Well now all the Special Olympic people and supporters are extremely offended and all sorts of press releases have been coming out apologizing a million different ways for his fuck up.

Just get over it already! It’s funny!

The White House spokesperson Bill Burton said late Thursday:

“The president made an offhand remark making fun of his own bowling that was in no way intended to disparage the Special Olympics.”

Obama “thinks that the Special Olympics are a wonderful program that gives an opportunity to shine to people with disabilities from around the world.”
