Kieran, Obama has freedom of speech just like everybody else in the free world so yes he can call someone a jackass if he wants to oh and why are you comparing a video to a album that just makes no sense at all?

Kanye deserves it. Just because Obama is the most powerful man in the world doesn't mean he can't call someone a "jackass". Kanye *is* a jackass. Oh, and has Beyonces "best video of all time" sold 110+million copies like Michael Jackson's Thriller? No, Didn't think so.

I think Obama should know better than to have a conversation off the record in earshot of others who do not know it is off the record. Anyway - it hardly makes Obama look bad, pretty excellent PR. People will read this and argue about it etc - which makes it newsworthy.

So what? There are millions that share the same view, including myself. Millions of people also like peanut butter, why not report on whether or not Obama likes peanut butter then? How about some real journalism please.
