I like the fact that he called him a jackass, but I dislike the fact that they leaked something that was supposed to be off the record.

Well, he is right. So I can certainly live with the fact that he said it. No doubt, some religious types will be all up in arms over "jackass", but really.. fuck 'em.

Ouch. It must hurt right now to be Kanye West, hearing your idol (most likely) calling you a jackass.

I'm waiting for Glenn Beck to now declare that Obama hates white people AND black people.

I firmly believe politians should never, in any way, for any reason, get in ANY trouble for speaking the truth. No matter where, no matter when, no matter what truth is being said. Ever.

Eg. If Wilson HAD been telling the truth, then everyone muffling about when where and how he did it, should stfu. As it happens he wasn't, so he should be chastized, but that's not my point.

Kanye West doesn't care about white singers.

The commentator's attitude seems to be one of disdain for even having to discuss this.

Obama should just be thankful it wasn't on par with what Reagan let slip.

And how, exactly, do you propose to decide what is true and what is not? If truth in the matters politicians deal with was easily discoverable, we wouldn't have any need for politics at all.

At first I thought I'd just find the clip lame, so Obama called it like it is in a casual off-air setting, big deal. What is funny to me though is watching the realization creep across Obama's own face. It's like he remembers the cameras are likely running, even if they aren't live. Then he considers asking if the tapes can be kept off air. Then he finishes with a bit of an oh crap expression realizing no network on earth is gonna keep a video of the president of the USA calling Kanye a jackass private.

Not sure if that was supposed to be racist or just oblivious

To me this is proof positive that a president can be intelligent and well spoken, and still just like everybody else you'd want to have a beer with. Those are not mutually exclusive things, as the Republicans would have us believe.
