It’s because all white people look alike to Obama. He’s just showing his anti-colonial roots. Where’s Dinesh D’Souza when you need him? He’d know how to make a buck from this.

What is sad is that right now Fox News producers are sitting in a room going over how to turn this into a hateful slam against the President. Seriously. One of the Fox noodle-heads will undoubtedly come out with some sort of lame insult from this.

Lighten up. Nobody forced you to read the article, and by clicking and commenting, you’re just encouraging them.

I personally like the fact that TPM has funny political news. Just as long as they keep covering the real stuff, I fail to see the problem. You knew what you were getting when you clicked on the link. You’ve got no one to blame but yourself.

No prob, Mr. President. All us white guys look the same.

I’m not so sure it was a flub, more a jibe that James is the ‘flak’ in the sense that Costello was to Abbott, that’s how it came across to me. Too deep for the press corps.

Note as well, POTUS called on only women from other than, and none of the Television outlets.

I’m surprised FOX’s shill didn’t shout out something stupid.

Somewhere in High School America, a senior year QB or a drama club lead named Giussepe Xerxes Franco is quietly celebrating the solution to his dilemma: “Joe - my name’s Joe Franco, Joe as in James, Franco as in Flacco; hold the Xerxes”.

Other candidates: Barack Muhamet O’Reilly; Mitch Elroy Obama; Deray Charles Boehner, Sean Patrick Mandela …

Joe’s the guy who got caught on mike just after SB victory describing it as “F… awesome!.”

You sly dog!
