More on the “BO changes his tune re: the New Yorker cover”:
Obama said he’s developed “a pretty thick skin” running for president and has “seen and heard worse.”
“I do think that, you know, in attempting to satirize something, they probably fueled some misconceptions about me instead,” he said. “But, you know, that was their editorial judgment. And as I said, ultimately, it’s a cartoon, it’s not where the American people are spending a lot of their time thinking about.”
I appreciate the nonchalance act on the whole matter, and I REALLY hate to nitpick, but I don’t recall you ever saying “it’s [just] a cartoon” before; it was more like “This is tasteless and offensive.”
I guess his “thick skin” is causing temporary memory loss. Poor guy. He should have that checked out.
