During what sounds like informal banter before the interview begins, Obama is asked whether his daughters were annoyed by West's hijacking of Swift's acceptance statement, according to an audio copy that was posted on TMZ.com.
"I thought that was really inappropriate," Obama says. "What are you butting in (for)? , The young lady seems like a perfectly nice person. She's getting her award. What's he doing up there?"
A questioner chimes in, "Why would he do it?"
[b]"He's a jackass," [/b]Obama replies, which is met with laughter from several people.
The president seems to quickly realize he may have gone too far, and jovially appeals to those assembled that the remark be kept private. "Come on guys," he says. "Cut the president some slack. I've got a lot of other stuff on my plate."

So? Abeg carry go.

He may be a president but he is a human. It's a free world. Carry go abeg. Jackass is not new.

yes, kanye west is a jackass

bilymuse:

yes, kanye west is a jackass

Gbam!!

yea nikku is an ass

Yes he (Kanye West) sure is a Jackass but then Obama should watch it! he talks too much and this could lose him some Black voters

eh for some reason, i think that the reason i like obama is because i don't listen to his speeches and talks directly.
the more i listen to him directly, the less i like him
i guess i'll just stick to getting summaries of what he said/did on news sites.

just my opinion. and no i don't support jackass kanye. lol

yeah that was a jackass move by Mr. West.
Obama knows what's up.

Obama shouldn't bother commenting on entertainment.Entertainment is about gimmicks,Kanye is a part of it,he is just an actor acting out his feelings and at the same time drawing publicities,every publicity,good or bad is a one good one for an actor.

But is any body actually denying mtv is not racial and partial?Mtv was set up as a racist company that refuse to feature black artists for so long until MJ broke the taboo,of course black artists are under pressure as always,until we begin to rule our world as a people,control our markets,interests and destinies,we will always get shit from oyinbos,because so far they make the rules,they draw the line,cause they got the sparks.
