The 2015 White House Correspondents' Dinner

Heard a clip of it on BBC. Loved when he said he didn't have a bucket list, but had a list that rhymed with it! LOL.
 
I'll never understand how they make up the guest list for this "correspondent" dinner, Models, Donald Trump? Really?
 

I really enjoyed it. I loved Obama's stand-up routine.. I thought he was edgier than in previous years... but what the heck... what has he got to lose?.. I'm glad he got in a few really good zingers.

I loved the line about how he is getting so old looking that Boehner has already invited Netanyahu to speak at his funeral..
 
I watched it too, I thought his speech was funny too, he really has his timing down on the jokes, I liked the one where he was talking about Dick Chaney's statement that Chaney thought Obama was the worst president ever.....he paused and said "Well, I think he is the worst president ever.".....nice.
 
Another good line

After noting some comments former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee made in recent weeks, Obama joked that “47 ayatollahs sent him a letter explaining how our system works,” a reference to the letter that 47 members of the Senate sent to Iran.
 
I liked his line about Michelle Bachman accusing him of somehow starting the "end times" and how that will be a legacy like no other, not even Washington or Lincoln! LOL!
 
This dinner is being criticized for the coziness between the prez and journalists that could cause the journalists to go softer on the administration than they should...
 
This is not a criticism of any particular president, but the possible corrupting of journalists over the years...
 
Baby Trudeau is not too bad. His dad, Pierre, liked the ladies, but behaved while with sweet Maggie. We loved his panache, his wit, and unshakable self-confidence. Being brilliant didn't hurt either. Canadians tend to stay out of the bedrooms of our politicians unless they are violent or perverse. We value privacy a great deal. We also find histrionic media distasteful.

Is there anything other than a proven visit from God that would stop the president from being criticized?
Click to expand...

Not even that I'm afraid... and even a photo of him emerging from the birth canal with Mount Kilauea in the background and the Goddess Pele hovering overhead would convince them he was born in Hawaii.
 
I don't see why it should be criticized.... after all..... they still hold that clown show CPAC. That aside.. what's wrong with having a little fun.. ?
