Good one, Mr President

Who knew Obama was a comedian?

BBC clip from the White House Press dinner here.

I love this guy. Seriously.

Well at least he tries. I liked the first joke though.

Who was the guy that he joked about being a “person of color?” I couldn’t make out the name. John somebody?

John Boehner, who has a George Hamilton-like, orange “tan”.

Had no clue either but I searched around a little and I think it’s this guy. Guess he spray-on tans or something. shrug

He was pretty funny during the Candidate Roast.
I managed to dig up McCain’s half of the night. Obama’s might be on the right hand side.

I liked the Rahm Emmanuel joke.

Moving thread from IMHO to Cafe Society.

Boehner was also recently named America’s least popular politician in a poll.

There’s another thread on this,topic “White House comedian” already, in Cafe Society forum, that has way more responses. Consequently, I’m closing this one and suggesting that folks post there: White House comedian! - Cafe Society - Straight Dope Message Board

Quartz, if you’d prefer that I merge the threads, send me an email or PM.
