Obama on Leno

Someone must be lying. Obama said last night that he didn't know anything about the AIG bonuses but yet Chris Dodd is saying the the administration was the one who told him to put the amendment in the bill so they can keep the bonuses. Of course I don't trust either of them so I'm just going to assume they are both lying.

President Barack Obama has told Jay Leno he was stunned when he learned of the bonuses that bailed-out insurance giant AIG was paying its employees.

Obama told "The Tonight Show" host the payments raise moral end ethical problems — and the administration's going to do everything it can to get them back.

But Obama added the bigger problem is the culture that allowed traders to claim them. He says that's got to change if the economy is to recover.

My big question is, will Obama give back his $100,000 he got from AIG? Some how I doubt it.

Also on Leno, Obama took a swipe at the Special Olympics. I know if Bush made fun of the Special Olympics they would be calling for impeachment.

owards the end of his approximately 40-minute appearance, the president talked about how he's gotten better at bowling and has been practicing in the White House bowling alley.

He bowled a 129, the president said.

"That's very good, Mr. President," Leno said sarcastically.

It's "like the Special Olympics or something," the president said.
