I was being totally serious in my original post because I think that it was horrible that the President made an analogy like that on national television. But at least he had class enough to admit that what he said was wrong and apologize.
And I was being serious when I implied that Bush is a fucking retard.
But it's true. That was a terrible thing for Obama to say. Usually politicians train themselves not to comment "off-the-cuff" like that. I think being on the Tonight Show lowered his guard a little. I don't think the appearance was a wise choice for him at all. It just adds to the idea that he's too impressed with Hollywood and being a star.
