So George W. Bush caused the deaths of thousands of people (many of them US soldiers) based upon information that was at best misleading, and at worse falsified, and Obama cheapens the office of the president by making a good-natured joke.

"This man holds the same office once held by George Washington…. Why am I crying???"

It upsets you that there's a black man holding the same office as the guy who historically would have owned him as a slave. America!

Presidential fist-bump.

Your argument is invalid.

In other words, "What happened to a president that represents the interests of only straight white Christian property-owning men?"

Now we're going to have free the slaves and let women vote.

I thought that was a sorta funny line, and I thought Obama's reaction was pretty cool.

Obviously, I am seeking the end of civilization.

Ha! That's a good one liner perfect for the occasion and the proper response from the President.

I went to a Comedy Club last week, and one of the guys did a long bit on fist-bumps. Pretty hilarious. But no way no how was he funnier than internet blog comments!

That bit at the end about his mother being there to like, I don't know, jinx or hex Kennedy or whatever. I don't know. Creepy. Kind of bad mojo. I'll feel better when tomorrow gets here and everything is the same.

“My mother got to shake hands with Kennedy in Fort Worth that morning he was assassinated, so just for consistency, it was kind of cool to meet with a sitting president. Her picture [is in a] crowd shot in this book called Four Days, so I kind of want to pull the photos next to each other and then wave it in my sister’s face.”

UH OH!

Yes, sometimes I just get too tired of hearing the right wing bullshit and I don't feel like writing a smart, clever response. Sometimes I just truly want them to actually suck my watery diarrhea.

True fact: George Washington only fist-bumped his fellow slave owners.

Inequality increased every year of Obama's presidency.

I thought it was a good natured laugh coming from a war criminal who is just a little less horrid than George W Bush.

@18, ...and every year for the full terms of the last 4 presidents.

Quoting commenters in order to tarnish a publication is low journalism (if it is journalism at all).

@17: You mean "Terrorist Fist Jabbed".
