  1. If you can’t spell a seven letter word without a teleprompter you may be a M_O_R_O_N.
    I really want to see his college papers. Or have him attempt the US Army Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery test and see if he has any skill other than reading from a teleprompter.

  2. I thought his only talent was reading a teleprompter and now I find out he can’t even do that!

  3. It isn’t only that B. Hussien dropped the ball on the lyrics, but he messed up the cadence as well, it’s something that just doesn’t happen with people raised in America and anyone who’s heard the original more than a couple of times would get that. Even reading it on his teleprompter… it’s almost sad that the idiot can’t read simple sentences anymore.

    Take out the papers and the trash
    Or you don’t get no spendin’ cash
    If you don’t scrub that kitchen floor
    You ain’t gonna rock and roll no more
    Yakety yak
    (Don’t talk back)
    Just finish cleanin’ up your room
    Let’s see that dust fly with that broom
    Get all that garbage out of sight
    Or you don’t go out Friday night
    Yakety yak
    (Don’t talk back)
    Just put on your coat and hat
    And walk yourself to the laundromat
    And when you finish doin’ that
    Bring in the dog and put out the cat
    Yakety yak
    (Don’t talk back)
    Don’t you give me no dirty looks
    Your father’s hip, he knows what cooks
    Just tell your hoodlum friends outside
    You ain’t got time to take a ride
    Yakety yak
    (Don’t talk back)
    Yakety yak, yakety yak
    Yakety yak, yakety yak
    Yakety yak, yakety yak
    Yakety yak, yakety yak

  5. I believe that’s Otis Redding’s song,and he did it for the money, as a recording artist should.
    What does Obama have against deceased black MALE recording artist/song writers anyway?
    Don’t let Putin know that among all his other failings, Obama can’t spell.

  6. I’m not racist, I hate his white Communist mother and her parents as much as I hate his Kenyan Communist father. If white Americans had to elect an African-American to erase their supposed guilt for what ended a century and a half ago they should have elected Thomas Sowell or Col. Allen West.
    By the way, the Union lost over 300,000 white soldiers in the civil war and 1 in 13 survivors lost a limb. That sacrifice to end slavery is never mentioned by Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, it doesn’t fit the narrative.

  7. This dude has been flubbing things since he showed up, and msm thought bush was stupid!
    I told a fellow oboma was an idiot.
    he told me, i was a racist…..he obviously doesn’t know what the word racist means.
    Oboma is a racist, want proof, go listen to his former pastor j. wright….he’s a racist also.
    I only wish Thomas Sowel or Col. West was commander….that would be a breath of fresh air compared to this fool!
    i do feel oboma is wrecking the usa on purpose…..a trojan horse, he and his whole administration.

  8. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.
    It’s such a priviledge to be on the same blog with such perfect people, who have never made a similar mistake.
    Don’t give me any of this, but he’s the President crap.
    Back to the junior high playground now, children.

  9. Set You Free,
    We call it, “being hoisted on your own petard”, but of course, you can’t spell “privilege”, so it stands to reason you would feel that way. Understand the context, check your spelling, capitalize proper names before you post, and use quotation marks where needed!
    Back to grammar school kiddo, your prose is almost, but unfortunately not quite, unreadable.

  10. He does have a talent for race baiting. Like Jackson , Sharpton & the many others who use race to enrich themselves.

  11. Aretha’s not only darker-skinned than Obama, probably has less tainted (white) blood in her lines, but she also has talent and can sing like one of the great blues women, maybe the best of them all.(Though she does have the advantage of modern recording techniques over Bessie Smith.)
    Hell,I’d take Aretha for President over Obama any day!

    I was never a fan of G Boosh, and couldn’t listen to him quack away, but I determined by the criticism he got that he was dyslexic, so he had a fair excuse for his verbal flubs. Trust me on that, I know from first hand experience:-))))Obumbles is a lijit target as he plays the part of being superior, Bush was much more in touch with the common man.

  13. Did he do an encore featuring “Stop in the Name of (dot)Gov”?
    And, sh1t you free, it’s the double standard that we’re mocking not saying that we (or conservative politicians) are perfect.
    BTW, almost 75% of the U.S. KIAs in Afghanistan have come on Obama’s watch since January 2009. When was the last time you heard/read the MSM “marking a grim milestone” re. deaths in Afghanistan? So it’s not just the MSM showing a double standard over puff pieces but over serious issues of national (and international) importance. If you weren’t such a hypocrite, you’d be demanding that the MSM hold Obama to the same standards as they did to Bush.

  14. marc in Calgary nails it.
    That song is so engrained into the North American culture that if those letters can’t come without stumbling then your thinking machinery is pooched.

  15. I was about to opine that this was a simple and innocuous flub, and that people should cut Obama some slack, but then I remembered how much slack the lefties cut George W.

  16. What particular petard is Obama being hoisted on? Did he ever claim to be a spelling bee winner?
    I’ll continue to watch closely to see how good of a spell-checker you are.
    There are plenty who post here who you’d probably consider semi-literate.
    Be warned. Eric the Perfect is watching and every time somebody here makes a spelling mistake, I’ll call on Eric to correct you.

  17. I don’t think the point is the simple spelling error.
    More that, he’s such a lazy President that when asked to think for himself after having most (all?) of his public statements spelled out for him, that when there’s an error in his statement he fails to pick up the slack.
    We all make mistakes, not too many folks gain an 88% average on their college transcripts. So compare that figure to B. Hussien’s average, instead of the average joe that comments on the “the smartest President ever” that claimed to attend the most expensive (at the time) private high school in America, then 3 of the finest universities in America, yet doesn’t have any proof of his excellence, nor how he paid for this education.
    It was fair game to point out the previous President’s english errors, the same as the current office holder.

  18. Obama was startled by the letter t.
    “Potatoe” was a Dan Quayle gaffe.
    …and… one should note, that is how is was spelled on his quiz-master index card… the teleprompter of that era.
