Barack Obama has a pop at the mentally disabled

Barack Obama's 'Special Olympics' gaff on Jay Leno was pretty shocking. Not just because the joke in which he compared his sub par bowling skills to someone with mental disabilities was incredibly offensive, but because I honestly thought that the man was gaff-proof.

The revelation that he's actually fallable and as capable of making entirely tactless remarks as us mere mortals may have a profound effect on the world. Does this mean that he's not perfect, and that he might not save us all from financial oblivion?

  1. We all knew he wasn't perfect a few months ago when he announced that he supported West Ham United!
