National Journal Reports on Mitt Romney’s Joke About Obama
President Obama went to the bank to cash a check and he didn’t have his ID. And the teller said you’ve got to prove who you are.
He said, “How should I do that?” She said the other day Phil Mickelson came in, he didn’t have his ID but he set up a little cup on the ground, took a golf ball, putted it right into that cup so they knew it was Phil Mickelson. They cashed his check.
And then Andre Agassi came in. And Andre Agassi didn’t have his ID either. He put a little target on the wall, took a tennis ball and racquet– hit it onto that target time. We knew that was Andre Agassi so we cashed his check.
And she said to him, “Is there anything you can do to prove who you are?” And Obama said, “I don’t have a clue.”
And she said, “Well, Mr. President, do you want your money in small bills or large bills.”
Hey-o!
Ba da bing.

Kevin M (b357ee) — 10/13/2014 @ 8:25 amDid you notice how the author of the piece didn’t think it was funny? Bet you 1,000 bucks that every “chimp” joke about GWB was hysterical to these people.
I’m a little surprised by the joke, but it is a frustrating time.
But hey! At least Obama never supposedly put a dog crate on top of a car.
Politics is funny that way.
Simon Jester (250fb6) — 10/13/2014 @ 8:44 amIf I like this joke, can I keep it?
nk (dbc370) — 10/13/2014 @ 8:52 amHey, now that it’s in the news, maybe Obama will hear about it!
Edoc118 (8b952d) — 10/13/2014 @ 8:59 amGood job, Mitt! This is how the game must be played with these people. And of course it shows you understand that when you’re not running for office you have a lot more freedom to say your mind and settle old scores. Since you’ve already been proven to be right about so many 2012 issues, nobody is more entitled than you are to mock the president–especially after the disrespectful way he and his media minions mocked and lied about you during the debates.
I’ll bet Newt has some pretty good Obama jokes, too. In fact I’ll bet there are a lot of good Obama jokes circulating in Washington political circles these days and not just from Republicans.
More please.

gary gulrud (46ca75) — 10/13/2014 @ 9:22 amWell Obama may have never put a dog in a crate on top of a car; (although down South good old boys have been known to put a couple of dogs in the bed of a pickup truck—and the dogs seem to like it just fine).
But then again, Romney never ate a dog.
Skeptical Voter (12e67d) — 10/13/2014 @ 9:41 amHeh.
SarahW (267b14) — 10/13/2014 @ 9:44 amNot funny! Dammit! Romney’s a socialist!
Colonel Haiku (2601c0) — 10/13/2014 @ 9:54 am“By this time in the election cycle, the public should have been awash with stories about how a poor, minimum wage worker at Walmart has lost her health insurance due to corporate greed and why that greed has is leading America closer to single payer. Everyone should now be focusing on how the resurgent economy would be trending on Twitter were it not for the sabotage of conservative news outlets — paid for by the Koch brothers. Instead what is trending are stories like ‘War against Isis: US strategy in tatters as militants march on‘ or ‘Despite airstrikes, ISIS forces draw nearer to Baghdad‘. Or ‘Texas health worker becomes first person to contract Ebola in U.S.‘ The horror, the horror…”
Colonel Haiku (2601c0) — 10/13/2014 @ 10:03 amU.S Presidents and statesmen are on every piece Of U.S. currency. When will Barack Obama’s likeness be placed on EBT cards?
Colonel Haiku (2601c0) — 10/13/2014 @ 10:07 amhe ought to be on an “Wanted” poster
redc1c4 (589173) — 10/13/2014 @ 10:17 amQ: What are the four enemies of Obama’s economic policies?
Kevin M (b357ee) — 10/13/2014 @ 10:19 amA: Winter, spring, summer and fall.
New polls show Romney would beat Hillary.
(Now awaiting the “there’s no difference between them” posts)
Kevin M (b357ee) — 10/13/2014 @ 10:20 amRomney had a gog on the roof of his car; TFG had a dog on the roof of his mouth.

Why? Someone still wants him?
A carton seems more appropriate.
“Have you seen this missing president?”
Dan (00fc90) — 10/13/2014 @ 10:50 amWhat’s the most expected word in any administration press release?
Unexpectedly.
Dan (00fc90) — 10/13/2014 @ 10:51 amI liked it.
Mike K (90dfdc) — 10/13/2014 @ 10:58 amit would be funny if he wasn’t such a dangerously virulent anti-american whore
happyfeet (a785d5) — 10/13/2014 @ 11:01 amIt’s not funny ‘cuz it’s true…
Redhawke (c66a4a) — 10/13/2014 @ 11:25 amQ: What’s the real problem with Barack Obama jokes?
Colonel Haiku (2601c0) — 10/13/2014 @ 12:12 pmA: His remaining followers don’t think they’re funny and everyone else doesn’t think they’re jokes.

narciso (ee1f88) — 10/13/2014 @ 12:33 pmOh sure, the two white guys in the joke demonstrate their abilities while the biracial President demonstrates his incompetence.
Racists (since JD hasn’t yet called you all that). Denouncements all around.
JVW (887036) — 10/13/2014 @ 12:45 pmWhat? There were white guys in the joke?
Anyway, The joke could be made acceptable to “some” by including only incompetents.
Joe Biden – show hair plugs

If DWS said the sky was blue, I’d go outside and check.

narciso (ee1f88) — 10/13/2014 @ 1:43 pmYou forget, Simon: that dog wouldn’t have made it to the roof of Obama’s car. “Scooby Snack” has an entirely different meaning for Preezy 404.
Bill H (f9e4cd) — 10/13/2014 @ 2:57 pmFunny joke!
Not exactly a good year for dog lovers on either side!
