Leno: Obama - D, R, and F'd

I'm sure you've heard Obama's latest joke.

From the Washington Post:

If President Obama loses his reelection bid in 2012, maybe he can find some work as a stand-up comedian.

At a fundraiser here, he trotted out his latest joke, chuckling as he told it. The punch line came after his usual story about refusing to give Republicans back the keys to the economy because they drove it into a ditch.

Speaking of cars, he said: "You want to go forward, what do you do? You put it in 'D.' When you go backward, what do you do? You put it in 'R.'"

Then, with another chuckle, he added: "I'm just sayin' that's not a coincidence."

If Obama quits his day job, he might want to credit his friend, Democratic Gov. Chet Culver of Iowa, who apparently came up with the quip a few months ago.

Really lame, in my opinion.

Mark Levin offers his take on Obama's line here.



On Thursday, Jay Leno weighed in on Obama's joke.

JAY LENO: In Austin, Texas, President Obama told an audience, "If you want to go forward you put your car in 'D.' If you want to go backward, you put your car in 'R.'"

But you know something? Either way, the economy is still F'd.
