Thank goodness for TMZ, because now we have audio of President Obama saying that Kanye West was a "jackass" for interrupting Taylor Swift's MTV Video Music Award speech and saying that Beyonce's video was way better. Barry said, "I thought that was really inappropriate... He's a jackass." Obama is then heard asking, "Where's the pool?" which TMZ analyzes, "Presumably, he was worried the joke would go wide. He noted the last time that happened, he got burned for killing a fly." Obama also added, "C'mon guys. Cut the president some slack. I've got a lot of other stuff on my plate." White House spokesman Bill Burton told the press, "Look, I'm not going to get into what the President had to say in an off-the-record conversation. But you should see what [White House chief of staff] Rahm [Emanuel] said about it." In other news, West apologized to Swift, who said he was sincere.

It's the same media that NEVER mentioned Muslims' hatred of Israel as a possible motive for 9/11.

One of the many reason why I think Obama is great. He's right. Kanye is a Jackass!
Kanye West doesn't like white people.
You said it!! I would like to see him do this to someone BLACK & BIGGER THAN HIM who would give him a good slap & bring this loser back down to reality ... he probably has a really small penis & takes it out on everyone else that's why he's so insecure:)
As soon as I read this story yesterday morning, I knew it wouldn't go away for a week.
I believe Obama is a racist.
If Obama was 100% white and said that, he would be called a racist.
Way to call a spade a spade Obie.
Perhaps, but its nice he can get away with such things. This gives the President far more breathing room to say what he thinks.
Assertive, successful, African American males are labeled "racist" by insecure White men who feel threatened by power in the hands of individuals who do not look like them.
Professional Black men have two jobs in America:
1) They have to perform their job better than their White counterparts in order to get equal recognition.
2) They have to appear happy & content at all times in order to put their White coworkers at ease.
After all, a negro who is not smiling & making white people feel okay about his mere existence is someone to worry about.
Obama has not given even a slight indication that he is "racist". Your perception is quite telling Snoopy.
Stop being the fool boy. Obama distances himself from all the black idiots that call themselves "the voice of the black people." Do I need to name those idiots or are you capable of listing them yourself?
Obama is more white than black and was brought up in a caring white household. No thanks to his mother. I am sure he is not overly proud of the desertion by his proud African tribal father who went on to continue his gombubu sperm in his homeland. But life goes on and he is strong enough to live with his heritage.
...or you're just a dick.
Why is this a news story? Because we have a president who is not afraid to state the obvious?
Who cares?
Who cares? Who cares you ask? There are Kayne West fans who care that's who. How about his latest album? What was its name? I keep forgetting.
WTF is Kayne West? He ain't no Frankie Avalon that's for sure.
finally obama says something i agree with
This will probably help his ratings.
It's so nice to have a Commander-in-Chief who has a perfectly logical perspective on things.
Where is Al Sharpton?
As usual, our President, right on the mark.
TMZ has some of the hardest working reporters out there. Mainstream media ain't got nothing on those cats.
Finalists for most immature outburst:
Kanye West meet Joe Wilson. Joe Wilson meet Kanye West.
How come I'm the 19th comment yet only the first person to suggest we settle this over a beer at the White House between el Presidente, Taylor Swift, and gay fish?
Maybe because Taylor is only 19. Though she could have an O'Doul's!
Haha good point Jen. Guess O'Douls or Shirley Temples it is
The leaker gets a call from the IRS in 3...2...1...
What's a Kanye?
Older black man calls young black man 'a jackass'. News at eleven.
But I DO want to hear what Rahm Emanuel had to say about the whole thing.
Who's Barry?
