Obama Thinks the Special Olympics Are Funny?

As part of Obama's popularity contest yesterday he made an appearance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Apparently he had nothing better to do last night, so it's not that big of a deal.

I mean, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are doing okay. The economy is fine. Secretary of the Treasury, Timothy Geithner isn't causing any problems and totally knows what he's doing. Unemployment is in check. He already said he doesn't care about the stock market, which implies that he doesn't care about American's retirement plans, which mostly invest in stocks and mutual funds.

So as part of his dialog with Leno, Obama mentioned that he bowled a 129 or something like that and equated his score with that of someone in the Special Olympics. Apparently the bowling abilities of mentally retarded children are funny in Obama's eyes. And the sad part is it generated laughs from the apostles in the audience.

I heard a rumor that Obama will make an appearance on the Daily Show and poke fun at homeless children, then on to The View where he will get laughs discussing the domestic violence.

And we thought Bush was an idiot? Is this any better? This is embarrassing.
