Barack Obama has already gone out of his way to express his disdain for women once. Now he’s sicking his goon funnyman to do it again.
For $2,300 a plate, a room full of donors got to hear that Bernie Mac thinks he lives with a bunch of "hos" . Later, Obama had a spokesperson express fake horror over the comments. Jesse Jackson will be disappointed if he wants to cut off anything belonging to BHO.
Maybe things wouldn’t have been so hilarious if Bernie had commented on how Obama has been pimping his kids out lately. No doubt they like being shark bait for the media.

A hoe is whats going to be upside Bernie’s head if I ever see his ass walking around anywhere!

Calling women ‘hos’ at a 2,300 dollar big time event???? Then Obama pretends to chastise Mac for the comment… but then winks at him by adding: “I’m just messing with you man”.
I’M JUST MESSING WITH YOU, MAN?????? After he castigated Don Imus and caused him to lose his tv show for referring to black women as ‘hos’. If its wrong for Imus becuz he is white, it is wrong for Mac becuz he is black.
Obama is not ready for the world stage yet. He is a South Side Chicago, ghetto-fabulous, Flava-flave wanna be, whose behavior is juvenile and embarrassing. Nancy S. - Michigan

I could have used a hoe the other day. I’ve been re-sodding part of the back yard.

I guess Obama can’t take a joke. This is seriously pretty stupid, why invite people like this to political events?

I think he is doing it intentionally. Think about it, he brings in people that say really stupid things. Now he can step up say what the people want to hear and look better than he did before. I guess you could call it T-ball politics. Or just staging.

I alway knew Bernie Mac was an ignorant as*…he just proved it to the world. Black comedians are sadly not funny, the only perpetrate sterotypes, but if someone white did the same…lord have mercy!

A white guy did. And then Jackson and Sharpton got him kicked off his radio gig.

Well, I try to picture the snenario with some consideration for Obama. If I was one of his campain workers and “Bernie Mac” offered to do some standup. I might be awestruck enough to roll the dice.
Considering that and Obama’s disposition, I would speculate that he was caught between “dambed if he does, dambed if he don’t”.
Every campain has some stink to it, so I would just overlook it.
Most likely it was a bad decision made by campain worker.

Bullshit for consideration for Obama! If he considers Bernie Mac to be his friend then we can see what kind of “friends” he hangs around.

Lisa, we have already seen what kind of people he hangs out with (i.e. his former pastor, domestic terrorists and the like). If Bernie Mac has your boxers in a bunch then…. well, I guess you haven’t been paying attention.
