Funny? Yes.
Classy or presidential? No.
People always over react.

And I disagree. It does not need it's own thread.

More importantly last night, Obama said that bus drivers make $40-50k. If so, I am in the wrong profession.

haha, i've seen more worthless threads than this on ddm. but i think its real minor, although i bet he wishes he never said it and i think it speaks to his arrogance.

i bet bus drivers in other states make that much. some probably make that here.

besides, whatever profession your in, if you aint pullin 40-50K, your in the wrong profession.

Nah, I'm entry level accounting so I am just at $30k. I'm still young and in school, but shit, I would rather drive a bus for $50k that be a computer slave.

Wanna bet? Why do you think he back pedaled from the joke so fast? Didn't want to offend an important constituent group.

Re: Obama's "Special Olympics" joke on Leno
Probably the same people who have been cutting him slack for the past 8 years.

And hey, at least he immediately called them after and apologized. Takes a big man to admit he's wrong. To me that speaks volumes for his character.
