Obama Addresses Richard Mourdock's Rape Comments and Mocks Donald Trump on The Tonight Show
[There was a video here]
President Obama stopped by The Tonight Show earlier tonight to discuss, amongst other things, Richard Mourdock's recent idiotic comments about rape.
"I don't know how these guys come up with these ideas. Rape is rape. It is a crime," Obama said about the GOP's problems discussing the issue. "These various distinctions about rape don't make too much sense to me, don't make any sense to me...This is exactly why you don't want a bunch of politicians, mostly male, making decisions about women's health care decisions."
Well said. But this is awfully serious for a late night talk show - what about those top notch zingers we've been hearing so much about?
Don't worry, the president had those, too. When Leno asked about Donald Trump's most recent buffoonery, Obama told him about the beginning of their longstanding feud.
"This all dates back to when we were growing up together in Kenya," he told Leno."We had constant run-ins on the soccer field. He wasn't very good and resented it. When we finally moved to America I thought it would be over."
