Breaking: President Obama Is NOT A Justin Bieber Fan

» 9 comments

Our friends at Gossip Cop have cracked open a potentially huge story that perfectly captures the divided nation in which we now find ourselves. During the much criticized taping of The View this morning, President Obama revealed that he does not have Justin Beiber on his iPod. Given that Bieber is a Canadian pop star, this clearly has Foreign Policy implications.

President Obama finds himself in New York city for fund raising purposes as well as this appearance on the ABC daytime talk show, which airs later today (Thursday) at 11:00 AM.

Below is the potentially damning transcript of Obama’s admission that his mp3 device is in fact “Bieber-free” (from Gossip Cop)

ELISABETH HASSELBECK: Have you thought about an iPhone at all, making the switch?

PRESIDENT OBAMA: I haven’t made the switch yet. I do have a pod though; I’ve got a great iPod

WHOOPI GOLDBERG: Can I ask you what’s the first couple of songs on your iPod?

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: You name a song, I’ve got it. Whether it’s (pauses)

WHOOPI GOLDBERG: “Didn’t I Blow Your Mind This Time”?

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: I’ve got Jay-Z on there. I’ve got Frank Sinatra on there. I’ve got Maria Callas on there

SHERRI SHEPHERD: Justin Bieber

(AUDIENCE LAUGHTER)

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: I’ve got Maria Callas on there

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: I do not have Justin Bieber on there

(AUDIENCE LAUGHTER)

BARBARA WALTERS: No but I bet your kids have Justin Bieber on there, but I have met Justin Bieber he came to sing at the White House. He’s a very nice young man

    I have never met a guy who is.

    AT FOX, HONESTY
    IS NOT OUR POLICY.

    From the article “President Obama finds himself in New York city for fund raising purposes as well as this appearance on the ABC daytime talk show, which airs later today (Thursday) at 11:00 AM. ”

    Damn, this presidentin’ is hard.

    Finally, something he and I have in common.

    Does the Snake-Oil Salesman believe The View audience is that vapid as to fall for his self-aggrandizing charm, over his Authoritarian policies?

    …YOU ‘BETCHA!!!!

    I find it humorous that Obama is just ‘Too Tough’ to enjoy Beiber’s music …….and yet.. …look at the forum he’s chosen ..That View …man ..he’s a very brave soul indeed ..Walking in to the lion’s den and all. …Why, he may actually be challenged on what his and Michelle’s favorite date night is. ….Maybe next they’ll book him on the Young and The Restless.

    Wow, I actually learned 2 things from BO from the “interview”.

    1-he think blacks are mongrels
    2-Michelle doesn’t watch the news and prefers shows like the View.

    The pieces are really starting to come together!

    Do you ever say or post anything original? How many threads you gonna post this on? Your copy/paste, calls of racebaiting in just about all threads until you read where being called or calling racist is getting old and losing meaning. Then decided to act like that was your idea. Up until you copy/paste that to back you up the claim.

    That’s the point!

    It has lost its original meaning and Racist now means: someone who disagrees with BHO”s policies and who supports a smaller and more fiscally responsible government.

    Like I said in another post….it’s really getting old and worn out by both sides. It started with his announcement to run for president. Alot of the quiet white racists crawled out from under their rocks. And I’m sure there are some black racists that think whitey’s gonna get theirs now. aka NBPP, but I would like to think that this is not the majority of people in this country on both sides of the coin. I’m not sure how old you are, but if you are of middle age and white like me, and grew up with a racist father, you would have heard more than not how if a black man became president we would all (whites) be in a world of shit. It’s fear driven. Prejudice of all forms are basically all about fear and change. It’s human nature to feel fear of change your not ready for. Fear of the unknown. Obviously, Republicans and Democrats differ. You don’t like Obamas policies? Fine, oppose them but keep race out of it. And the left should do the same. But at the same time, we need to call out the racists and don’t let them infiltrate whatever progress this society has made so far. And all of us must not make blanket statements or rearrange a statement just to instill fear. It’s unproductive. You know I voted for Bush, both terms, but *one* of the biggest problems I had with him and his administration was the constant state of fear they tried to instill on us, after 9/11. It was a republican diversionary tactic for bad policy making. And, now its about race. Honestly, do you really think Obama who had a white mother and a white grandmother who raised him and loved him and he loved her, is out to get whitey? He would be destroying part of himself in the process.
